The History of Furniture By Going & Harvey Company Although we pass our lives in houses of our own or those of others, very few, indeed, have any idea of the origin of the homely articles with which we are sur rounded. Hut, from attic to kitchen, in nearly all of them, there is to he traced quite a romantic beginning. Take the pictures hanging on the wall, for instance. They date back to about f00 years, when monks painted their living- rooms round with Scriptural subjects. One day someone suggested a piece of wood in between the paintings Jo separate the subjects. came gilding, and the modern picture frame followed as matter of course. The drawing-room is very fertile in romance. As most peoplo know, its real and true title is the" with-drawing-room," i. e., the room to which you withdrew after dinner. The origin of antimacassars is also common history. One hundred and fifty years ago it was the fashion to dress the head liberally with macassar oil. ilousewives, objecting to the damago caused to their chairs by this grease, placed strips of lace over the backs and the word and article antimacassar came into being. The chairs themselves are very interesting. They date back to the time when knights and ladies, wishing to keep their feet off the draughty floors, brought in the use of the stretcher. Originally the stretcher was only raised a few inches above the rush-strewn ground, but gradually the form was alter ed, and by the time that carpets were common the stretcher had evolved into a high-legged and high-backed chair. The cosy armchair came last of all. At lust only a cushion was placed over the wooden seat. Then they carved the legs of the seat possessing the cushion, and finally they padded back and arms. Chairs were always very important articles of furniture. Today "taking the chair" denotes taking the head of affairs, and is reminiscent of the time when only the most important personage present sat on a four-legged scat, the lesser fry having to put up with three-legged stools. Window curtains, or, rather, tho "European idea, came from China in the Middle Ages, when some adventurous traveller returning from that country mentioned the Chinese habit of fastening a piece of cloth across the windows. Tablo drawers owe their being to the gamblers of former days. A place wis wanted to keep the cards when not in use, and an aperture beneath the table top was utilized. Kitchen is derived from an Anglo-Saxon word, being to cook. Scullery has nothing to do with scullion, but comes from a word mean a bowl; while "hall "meaning a covered-in place has just the same root as the infernal regions. ' - l This is the first word in Furniture. ' . The Last Word in Furniture May be found at our store. QUALITY-VARIETY-QUANTITY A visit to our Store will convince you.
