LEFRANC & CO.'S Artists' Water-Colours are prepared from the best pigments obtainable and ground with the greatest care. They are unequalled in BRILLIANCE and PURITY, and flow very easily without showing any trace of granulation. They are cheaper than most of other makers' colours. Common shades like Sienna, Ochres, Prussian Blue, Chrome Yellow, etc., are charged only 3d. per half pan or tube, 5d. per whole ,, To be obtained from the principal dealers in Artists' Materials.

A SANDERSON SONS CHISWICK BRANCH OF THE WALL PAPER MANUFACTURE LTD DESIGNS FOR WALL PAPERS FRIEZES ETC SHOULD BE POSTED TO OR SUBMITTED AT CHISWICK TWO-FOLD EXCELLENCE IN TABLE LINEN. HERE is only one firm in the world—JOHN WILSON'S SUCCESSORS LTD.—possessing over Sixty Exclusive Designs in Table Damask by WALTER CRANE, LEWIS F. DAY, R. ANNING BELL, DR. DRESSER and other well-known artists. These Designs, as far removed from stereotyped "trade" patterns as is the work of an ADAMS or a CHIPPENDALE from modern machine-made furniture, are genuinely Hand-Woven from pure flax on Wilson's own Looms in Lurgan into Double Damask of irreproachable quality, and bleached by sun and rain. . . WILSON'S Damask is "Woven Worth," and fully justifies the firm's registered trade mark "Heirloom" and their century-old reputation. Value in Damask is not easily judged by the uninitiated, who are frequently misled by a highly finished appearance, but the relation of price to quality in WILSON'S Damask will surprise connoisseurs as much as the beauty of the designs will delight them. . . Cloths of fine quality, 2 by 2 yds. from 15/- Full range of qualities, up to the finest Damask made, is kept in stock. Price List illustrating all their Designs sent on request.

(Designed by a Pupil of The Press Art School.) AD. IV Pelican Colours. These Celebrated Artists’ Water-Colours blend most perfectly when mixed, may be most evenly applied for washes without showing the slightest trace of Granulation, and have and retain unequalled Brilliance and Colouring. Their increasing popularity in the HOME and COLONIAL MARKETS Proves that they are appreciated as possessing the above good qualities to a more marked degree than other brands. Artists, Students, &c., are requested to write for Colour Card with actual tints, or descriptive Price List, to GUNTHER WAGNER Sole Manufacturer. 80 MILTON STREET LONDON E.C.
In Photographic Picture Making the less the attention required by the apparatus, materials and methods employed, the greater is the care and thought that can be given to the proper treatment of the subject in hand, and the better the result from every point of view. THE SIMPLICITY & CONVENIENCE OF ALL KODAKS, the perfection and reliability of Kodak N.C. Film, and the automatic character of the rational development system embodied in the Kodak Daylight Developing Machines, considerably lighten the difficulties of picture making, and have converted many of the most prominent followers of old methods into enthusiastic advocates of KODAK PHOTOGRAPHY. Full particulars in "Winter Work with a Kodak," post free. KODAK, Ltd., 57-61 Clerkenwell Rd., London, E.C. Branches:—96 Bold St., Liverpool; 72-74 Buchanan St., Glasgow; 59 Brompton Rd., S.W.; 60 Cheapside, E.C.; 115 Oxford St., W.; 171-173 Regent St., W.; and 40 Strand, London, W.C.; and all dealers. The ROYAL COPENHAGEN PORCELAIN BY SPECIAL APPOINTMENT TO HER MAJESTY QUEEN ALEXANDRA. The specialty of the works is painting under glaze on the "bisque." The painted porcelain is fired at a very high temperature, which limits the number of colours applicable to a very small one, this however being considered rather an advantage as to the artistic value of the ware. Many pieces are "unique," only one piece being made and signed by the artists, and such decorations never duplicated. 2 OLD BOND STREET, LONDON, W. AD. V
