TUCKER
SOME years ago the children of
the family usually had their
rooms fvrnished with discarded
furniture, but nowadays furuiture may
be bought for the child's room which
is artistic, comfortable and service
able. Now one can buy correctly pro
portioned comfortable Windsor chairs,
appropriately light caue furniture;
some in the attractive Chineae hour
glass style, aud painted furniture in
modern and peasant styles. Although
children's furniture is built to avoid
sharp corners, uevertbvtesa it is made
with regard for beauty of line and
proportion. There is opportunity for
design in painted furniture. An at
tractive aet recently shown 1s of an
ivory enamel and has a little Garden
and Dolly Varden pattern in colors
which may be made to vary for indi
vidual schemes. Iory, by the way. Is
so much more restful th-n white to
the eyes. The set has a table, chair,
settee, armchair ami desk. The child's
chiffonier has a Bo-peep design in
ivory enamel. The bed should have
some design, also. While It is possi
ble to get too much of a design in a
room, especially if a play and sleeping
room must be the same. It must be re
membered that desigu appeals to the
child and may furnish a rhance not
only for amusement but also for de
velopment of the imagination as well
as for general and art decoration. In
times of sickness, a screen may be
used to start oat designs on well KB6
hangings that may b disturbing to pa
trent
The Sleeping row.
Nothing could be better than!
sleeping porch which may b trtlllsM
as an outdoor playroom.
The simple, child-like naive art of
the ancient Peruvian appeals to the
child. Their quaint v ducks, flying
blrda and tunny borsea will fascinate,
the baby mind. In primitive, brilliant
Peruvian colon, or In black and?
white, these designs will make an In
teresting, easily copied atenafl border:
for hangings, bed covers, screen and
even Holland shades. A good choice
of materials for fabrics la unbleached
muslin. . j,
Bright colors will appeal to a child,
but red and yellow are hard upon the
eyes If too bright What draperies
there are should be few and washable.
There are especially designed wall
papers for the child's room. There are
so many that it would take too long to
describe them all here.
Using Colored Tiles.
If there la a fireplace there are de
signs In colored tiles, Dutch figures,
ships at sea, Arabian Nights scenes.
In no room is the fireplace more need
ed than in the nursery, not only for
ita ventilation, but for chilly mornings
and evenings, when the child can be
dressed before it. Here is the Ideal
spot for the bedtime story.
A few pictures on the walla, and
these should be very good.
Prints can be framed by the passe
partout method and so removed, after
a time, not because the child has pot
grown them, perhaps, or because they
are cheaper, but to give, the child a
la.ger art opportunity. Among the
classics' are Gainsborough's Blue Boy,
Lawrence's Nature, Dycb's Baby
Stuart, Luca Delia Robbla's Madonna
and Child and Hoffman's The Boy
Jesus In the Temple and other Bible
pictures.
Other suggestions are barnyard
scenes. Mother Goose pictures, animate
and simple landscapes.
Cold water paint la good decoration
for walls, because In a case of sick
ness they may be easily, quickly and
inexpenstbly done over.
The floor of the room may be of
hardwood, or if this Is too expensive,
a painted or stained floor is good; but
will not wear so well. Linoleum la
good and la sanitary and easily kept
clean.
A Scotch wool rug will stand hard
wear and will not show spots readily.
The rugs should be heavy enough to
stay flat on the floor and not be easily
kicked up to trip the child, or small
enough to slide on the Boor.
Colored balloon effects and Unterna
are happy conceits a lighting fixtures.

A REMEDY FOR FATIGUE.
WHEN a woman is very tired she
will find one of the best pro
cesses of refreshing herself Is
to Wring out hot-cloths and lay them
over her eyes and forehead. A hot
Water bag does not act as a substitute
tor this, and the treatmeut Is a little
trouble. The simplest way Is to have
two cloths and a basin of hot water
ready to wring out and replace the
one on the head that becomes cool.
When mixing batter with a wooden
spoon use the back of the spoon. It
la much easier, and the batter be
comes light In half th- usual time.
