Spring merchandise is especially attractive i

The fact that the governments of France,

Steel Beds

We are apt to think ofstccl as a purely utili-
tarian material. I t suggests railroads, ships, sky-
scrapers—and knitting needles. It remained
for it craftsman in art work to design steel beds.
The Iicdstcadshown above is a good illustration
of what we mean by art ,in steel. .

This Bedsteid is made of steel, the posts are
two inches square, the top rails one and one-half ,
inches. The tops of posts are finished with a neat.
llortll decoration. The principle feature in the
bedstead is the two cane panels in the head and
foot, in the center of which is a fine medallion on
a lilac background. The bedstead js strongly
made, finished in ivory color, very artistic.
