Is now quite comfortably complete
without something of the sort, a cot)
corner for the afternoon devoted to the
correspondence of the head of the
house. In these days, even with th*
most restricted Stoclal connections, the
matter of attending to all the noses,
letters and invitations of one sort or
other Is a matter of time, to thut th

For the sides only a few pieces will be

may be tacked on from the Inside with
very fine naiii. For the bottoms of the
divisions it will he enough to lei Uk a
few crosspieces, or tack them on as
you do the side pieces, or you can tack
over a thin piece of v.’ood, such as la
used for baekboards of frames.
