Sometimes. as we go about the Fourth Floor with clients, they wonder aloud, very frankly, whether they would do better to go to Europe and buy antique furniture for themselves, or buy it from us.

We try to answer them with equal frankness. Take the instance, for example, of people who have built an Italian house, and are considering going to Europe for the express purpose of buying Italian antiques to furnish that house. Their furniture, clearly, will cost them as follows: Their passage to Europe and return. Their hotel bills and railroad fares while in Italy. The crating and shipping charges from the dealer's shop to the U.

S. port to which the furniture is billed. These charges double the cost per lira on the price. of the furniture, as they are much larger for an individual than for a large organization, like Wanamaker's. Consular fees in Italy.

Repairs on the furniture after it is landed in this country, before it can be replaced in the house. There is also another expense, which has nothing to do with money. It has to be charged to what, for want of a better term, we will call "emotional overhead." And it is paid for in dissatisfaction. What we mean is that it is easy to be carried away by the atmosphere of a foreign country, and by the persuasive power of foreign dealers. But when you get back to your United States and find that a certain piece of furniture that seemed perfection in Florence is very far from it in Palm Beach, you won't be able to do anything about it.

We honestly believe that it doesn't pay you to buy antiques in Europe. Do you? Fourth Floor, Old Building.
