suppose it’s all because the automobile has given us the idea wfi cto Up
anywhere at a moment’s notice. But true it is that in your bsoliytod,
garden, or even porch, the ehabrs on wae^ bim «n*
tables on wheels, make us quite independmt of old
father sun, and we can escape him with ewe ioat
wheeling our chair into the shade. At ftrtl tlieac
chairs and especially the chaise longues wer* rathw;
expensive, but they are moderate in prite now, anti
most attractive. They wrak on the idea of the whiej
barrow and you push them ahead of you wltli tbd
greatest ease. They come in aU the summed furhltvd
materials, iron, willow, fitted with cushions of wcdthcr
resistant materials. Some even have little canopy t#rr
to shade your eyes. They really are a joy, SnU it isn’*
only the t^yg apd girls who like to loun(^ in them!
