M'Kell, Speedie and Co, the well-known house furnishers, of 201 Elizabeth-st. It is a neatly-got-up little publication, quite different from the ordinary furniture catalogue, just a handy size for ladies to carry in their handbag. Whilst not placing before the public all the lines they stock, they have endeavoured to put before them the character and value of furniture and furnishings that they sell. Numerous illustrations are contained therein, and the prices are very moderate. Furnishers of new homes, flats and seaside homes would do well to send for a copy of this booklet, which will be sent free, or it can be had free on application at M'Kell, Speedie and Co., 201-209 P31izabeth-st.
