The water-proof quali ties of CONGOLEUM Rugs make them ideal for kitchens and bath rooms where cleanliness and sanitary conditions are essential On the porch, they are storm and son-proof. In sit ting rooms, in dining rooms, halls, bed rooms, their rich patterns add greatly to thè beauty of the home.

How to Lay and Care for CONGOLEUM Coverings Congoleum should be kept in a moderately warm place 24 hours before unrolling. Don’t unroll when cold. The floor should be swept clean to see that the surface is smooth and even. Pill in arid# cracks or depressions with putty. Congoleum lies perfectly flat on any floor. If Congoleum is fastened to the floor it will net give satisfaction, as this will cause it to buckle. Tacks, nails, brads, cement or any special fastenings, together with their expense and higher, are eliminated when you use Congoleum. ' **, lik e everything Mae tat your horn# which is in eonataat use, Congoleum requires a little attention to insure the highest degree of service, if such ettentien is given the results secured will be eminently satisfactory. You srill find Congoleum a high-grade m ateriel—durable, waterproof and rot-proof. In denning Congoleum, use a mild soap, like Castile, Ivory or Fairy Sony, with lukewarm water—not hot wa ter. Never use sand soap or any cleansers containing alkalis. An occasional coat of any good varnish or Liquid Veneer will more than repay for the alight expense by great ly prolonging the life of the m aterial, renewing the surface and retaining the beauty of the pattern. ■ • w -- ■ ■ » ^ WHAT THEY SAY Th£T.
