new charm . . . make it more inviting.
And you can do it at low cost . . . with
better light.
For example, you can positiv4y /rs»i*
jorm a sofa against the wall . . ; simply
by hanging an attractive matched pair
of Pin-it-up lamps on the wall . . . one
at each end. And in each lamp a 100-

interest to the room, new usefulness and
comfort to the sofa. Try it, .. the cost
is surprisingly itnull! '
Incidentally, a Pin-up makes a grand bed
lamp. Get one and relax as you read.
