14 WINNETKA WEEKLY TALK, SATURDAY, DECEMBER 9, 1922 Book Reviews By John Philip Morris Could anything more perfect be written than a new story of Grizel by Sir James Barrie's little sister? Not the Grizel who was the daugh- ter of the Painted Lady and had the name of that to fight against but Grizel with a mother who was so re- spectable that it was beautiful and so could have a daughter who could be defiant of the world. A Grizel with, moreover, an Irish father to en- dow her with red hair and to com- bine the Celtish sharpness of wit with the wisdom of Scotia. Still and indubitably 'Grizel even though the Little Sister calls her Ellen Melville. Every sentence she utters comes from the mouth of the girl who Barrie created in the spirit and Maud Adams in flesh. All through the book each utterance sings to our senses with the nuances of Grizel and Babbie and Peter Pan. In fact for all time they will form for me a triple twist- (Continued on page 21) it's for you GraceForbesFrocks Making Remodeling Exclusive Models Do You Own North Shore Real Estate? o 5 you do, and you should ever wish to sell, it . will be an advantage to be represented by an organization the name of which has become ° synonymous with North Shore Real Estate in the minds of thousands of Chicagoans.

Washington St. CHICAGO _ Gold Weather answered the question Which isTHE oil burner?' All oil burners are good in July. It takes the first cold days to tell the story--how far theory and claims square with practice. It's natural that during last spring and summer many new, automatic oil-burning devices came on the market. The field is immense; Nokol has proved that oil heating for homes is practical. The invitation to market an oil-burning device is a broad one. You can now determine just what progress has béen made by oil burners other than Nokol. Of course you know about Nokol; when the first cold weather came on, more than 8225 Nokol- heated homes were automatically heated to com- fort, and will be until warm weather. For the past five years, Nokol heated homes have had a heat- ing service as trouble-free and dependable as their electric lighting, This is the big certainty on which every prospec- Room 217 Hoyburn Bldg. { Davis Street, Evanston tive owner of an oil burner can rely.

A large Oriental Rug for the library, for instance, would make a princely gift indeed. One can easily imagine how the quiet, simple furnishings of such a room as the one pic- tured, and the vari-colored bindings of the books would be united into a luxuriously rich and harmonious whole by the addition of just the right rug. § Here at this establishment you will find the largest and most comprehensive collection of Oriental Rugs in Chicago--from small scatter Rugs to the largest room sizes. The prices are very moderate, and are plainly marked on all Rugs. Beautiful small Oriental Rugs may be had at $25 and up, while cushion tops of Oriental saddle bags are available for much less. We make the unequivocal statement that better values cannot be found anywhere in the best single test. Make it.
