He was born In 1TJH and Mn 1760 went to Italy, where he jjstudlrd for four years. When lie re 2 turned to London his classical taste I; was firmly eaiabllshed and it be I came one of the mnrked and Im portant Influence of the 18th ccn- turn.: His keen perception snw the '.'praimmy or oaoHing Jate Komrui decoration to English home and 'from it he evolved the daintiest 'styles of architectural adornment ithat have ever existed.

Tho same ;iyear the four brothers rented ground facing the Thames In tho very heart of London and built on the famous lAdelphla building, which was dil--, frrent In every way from any pre viously erected. It was rented quickly to artists, men of letters land notable people of all kinds, i His brother, James, became his active partner and It Is Interesting ,:to note that they never became cam. !riet makers tliemsclvo, but employed 'skilled Workmen to carry out their designs. . 'i They planned all kinds of turnl , tura and accessores, and set tho fashion for light, graceful pieces ol 'furniture Ilk small cabinet, shieia barked chain, writing tables with tapering legs and sideboards wnn beautiful convex and coiv-ave curven, , all of whlrh carried out the classic 'spirit of their architectural bacst grounda Tha early furniture, as signed by Robert Adam was quit , plain and his walls showed much classic ornamentation, but about . 1770 he simplified his walls ana .elaborated his furniture until they ' met in perfect lisrmony. .He was the first to adopt the ' lench Idea of decorating furniture with painted motifs and poN-cIsm Apricots In Hummer Time Tho popularity of apricots has hecomo so general that roquests for recipes containing this fruit aro frequent and, fortunately, cay lo supply In various types of foods.

A HOMEBODY IN A PALACE Duce's Wife Shuts Out World To Rtar Family in Simplicity i Ity Aiulrue Bcrtllng no.MK (P) Hlgnora Mussolini, wife of II Duce, Is perhaps the moBt -secluded woman In Italy, and certainly among the least konwn of tho wives of tho world's great men. ' Whllo the fame and name of her powerful husband curry roitnd the world, her own renown Is confined within the four walls of her homo. (to ane in Italy speaks of rtnehelo Mussolini. Very fow know anything about hor. The wlfo of a prlmo mlnlstor In any other country Is a person of national note, perhaps a "first lady of the lund. Hut not In Itulyl II Duce has ordered Inflexibly thnt his wife and children ure not to mlnglo or bo mingled In his po Iltlcal life. "My wife and family aro my dearest posscsHionH," ho said, "but so greatly do I treasure them that I keep them apart from my day as something refreshing to go to whon I havo a momont In which to roHt." It Is only In the last yenr or so thnt Klgnora Mussolini hag lived with her husband In Komo. Here tofore alio was tucked away in their little homo town of Carpena, In tho north. ' ' Homo Duties Aro Heavy Yet day after day. In her own Hlmplo way, Donna Hacholo fulfills her task, which enn't help but bo difficult, as wlfo of Italy's prime minister. Bhe Is mistress of tholr elaborate homo, tho Villa Torlonln, on the Via Nomontnna, In a suburb to the northenst of tho city. This Is n big homo, and a con siderable responsibility. Slgnora Mussolini looks after It carefully. chocking minutely the purchases and nccounts, nevor forgottlng the day whon a fow cents meunt a wholo day's pay. Hho Is tho mother of five chil dren. Ono, Kdda, Is married, but four live nf home. Two of them, Itnmano nnd Anna Maria, aro too young to go to school. No rJoclnl Duties There aro no social duties con- 10:46, nectcd with Donna Rachcle'g life. Her husband does not take her to state dinners or receptions. She does not entertain the political or diplomatic world. Khe goes to see very few friends, and' receives- few friends at the villa. She Is protocted from lm partunate visitors by tho villa guards. , The last time she was seen at a public function was at the wedding of their daughter Hdda to Count Caloazzo Cluno, more than a year ago. What docs she do to fill up her life 7 Sho does what any wlfo of a hardworking huHhand and any mother , of Iqur lusty children would do. - A Busy Day . At 7 In the morning sho gets up and supervises the. breakfast. Bhe sees Vlttorlo and Hruno off to school at 7:46, and her husband off for his offlco nt 9. She tukes care that Romano and Anna Maria have something to do to occupy their tlmo at home. ' , She then makes out tho lint of purchases for tho day, and tho menu for lunchoon. lcr husband and sons are homo at .1:30 for luncheon, und leave again arbund 3.00. Shopping Hor Pleasure In the ufternoon she frequently goes automobile riding nnd shop ping. Itnchele Mussolini's chief enjoyment Is "fare lo spese,'' or doing her own buying. Occasionally, but not often, sho stops at this or that friend's house. She gets home In time to welcome Vlttorlo and Bruno returning from school, and to put Romano and Anna Maria to bed. Then comes dinner, at 9 o'clock. There are seldom any guests. After dinner she retires with hor hus bnnd and sons to the largo salon whoro they listen to tho radio, nnd at lenst half tho tlmo thore arQ motion pictures. ' Sometimes her husband plays tho violin to tho accompaniment, of the player piano. , Sho nnd her family are Invariably in, bed nt Italy's Tirst Ladf a 'Mother iist , Plant Plenty of Gladiolus Kvviilntjr inrty Mrnu Chlrkon tSnliw.
