And a homo In tho truo sotiso of tho word can and does do this. Things Not to Do. Homo of the most glarlug faults In homo furnishing nro tho commonest, those committed thoughtlessly or per haps, to be more oxnet, thoso prompt ed by tho dictates of fashion. It la so much enslor very often to put Into our homes and wear on our pcrsous, oven to put Into our manner, thoso things which fashion says aro right rather than to ndopt those things which suit our own Individuality, environment tind needs. Just because fashion states that a certain kind of wall paper, a certain color In carpets or certain styles lu furniture are tho "latest" and "now est" Is no reason .In tho world why they should bu put lut6 your homes unless thoy will bo suitable thoro. Vet very many times tho decree goca forth and Is followed blindly, with tho re sult thnt beauty, harmony and rcposo arc qualities totally Ignored in many homos. Home ono has said: "The world Is full of beautiful things tf ono has inouoy to buy them. Tho world Is also full of ugly things things false In art, In truth and beauty. They aro things mnde to sell with only this Idea behind thorn." Bo do not be temptod by tha too common expression, 'it Is tho very latest stylo," when buying furnishings for your homo or wearing jppnrol for yourself unless tho "vory latest thing" hns bonuty and suitabil ity to recommend t. To hnvo something llko every ono olso Is also another fault tnndo In hotiso furnishing. That Is ono reason why bo many country houses try to reproduce on a cheaper scalo tho city homo and why there aro so many un attractive homes lu smallor towns and country places, Ignorance of or In dlfferonco to color and color harmony is nnother causo for lack ot beauty In furnishing. Again, pictures, furnlturo, ornaments and everything clso nro brought Into our homo without n thought of artl cles already thoro. The now and the rooms, sucn n tiousu should no sincere In lis furulHhlngs6houtd not suggest Imitation In any wny. This Impression of genuineness can be given by lnex pet slve mnterinl, evcii by homemade furniture, very much better than by ! showy workmanship carelessly per formed. Treatment of High Ceilings. J Home of the houses built forty or I ilfty years ngo have celllugs too high to express real comfort. A room 10 I by 12 feet with a twelve, foot cell ing hns the appearance of bclug ex tremely narrow, while a room tho snmo slzu with a nlno foot celling may glvo a real coxy effect. What Is to be , done with the high colling? Tho sim plest wny out of the dllllculty Is to 1 cheat tho eyo Into forgotfulncss of those extra three feet. This can be done by using horizontal lines In the ( wnll decorntlon. Either tho celling pa-1 per can be brought down on the wall ' to the distance ot threo feet, tho u per part of the wnll mny be finished with a frlczo, or three feet nt the bnso may bo covered with ennvns or wood paneling, then six feet of 0 cured pnKr, finished with a narrow picture molding and Jolnlug thu celling paper, which has been dropped three feet. Any of these methods will givo the ; Impression of n lower celling. Borders have their place lu wall dec oration, but they should not be used lu rooms with low ceilings. Such a : room should be decorated with striped I paper and have the wnll covering ex tend close up to tho nngle formed by the celling, nnd hero the plcturo mold-' lug Is put on. Never use wide stripes or largo designs of nny kind on n Binall , room, nnd bear in mind that simplicity in design and color is n good rule to , follow In wall decorations as well as , In any part of house furnishing. Good and Baa In Wall Covering. ! The owner of n new house Is In-1 cllned to leave thu walls undecornted for tho first fow mouths nt least after ' tho house Is finished. Ills reason may ' bo tho added expense of decorntlon, or j ho may think ho prefers tho plain whlto wall Just for its simplicity and , becauso It is sanitary. If tho walls hnvo been finished with n smooth whlto surface It Is aioro than likely every ono will weary of them in n short time. Plain white walls glvo the feeling of being shut in n box, ns if thoro wero n limit to space. A smooth white surface also tires tho eyos. Not so tho rough plastors, which aro quite generally used nowadays. And If to tho plaster has been added, a little color, a hint of gray or deep croam, the effect is satisfying for a long time. Indeed, for almost any room .in tho house, with the possible exception of tho reception room or parlor, this rough surfaco simply tinted makes a most doslrablo wall finish. Tho smooth wnll may be decorated in almost any color with cnlclmlno or muresco, giv ing n pleasing background for pictures. Whatever tho wall decoration, it should bo chosen with rolatlon to tho lighting of tho room; nlso to tho fur nishings. If tho floor covering has considera ble design and color, thon the wall should hnvo but ono tlut, and If tho draperies nro figured again bo careful to solect n flat color for tho wnlls. Among tho chief objections to wnll pa-1 por aro tho exaggerated designs and too conspicuous colors, wuieu nro common In most of thorn, The size of tho room and tho kind of floor covering should largoly dotermlno whether tho wall should bo decorated with n paper hav Ing n pattern or a plain design, It Is so much easier to err on tho side of too much doalgu than too little that unloss you nro suro of your knowledge of color combination It Is goucrally better to keep to plain effects. ing romoved.
