Last Days January SaleMonday and Tuesday
"See what a beautiful castle! What a sum it cost! My money is not spent in choice of
foreign viands. For horses and equipages I spend not a mite! My house is my ornament; my
house my best costume; therefore, my treasury and coffer are ojcii, and what my house needs I hasten to buy." This exclamation of a wealthy French
merchant in the closing days of the Renaissance indicates the feeling toward furniture in the time of Louis XIII and his immediate successors. From
the models of the Renaissance many productions have been made, for as Paris has always been eagerjy copied in styles of dress by this country so
has the (Jay Capital been drawn ujon by designers for furnishing and beautifying our homes. Among these adopted patterns one may see an exact repro
duction of the chairs in which Louis XIII and Cardinal Richelieu sat while the shrewd minister dictated the policy of France. Or among them oue may
see patterns of the tables near which Cardinal Mazarin stood when he said of the French populace "Let them sing provided they pay." In our store
we are showing many models of days when designers vied with one another to produce masterpieces that would win favor from the Vallicres, Mainten
ous, Du Barry and the like. These pieces give the home an atmosphere of the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries and endear themselves to the house
wife who wishes her home to have a distinctive appearance. Only two days remain in our January sale and they will be marked by-the lowest prices of
