' Excellent CoverinZ For Woodwork. One of the most common obstaciea presented to the house-decorator is that of cheap wood-work. Some times it is extre0lelY difcult to give a good finish to the common doors and frames that are found in many residences, or it happens that jnst the. shade of paint needed is impossible. to blend. To obviate either of these, conditions decorators are now c;ering wood.work with chintz or burlaps, aUL ,he effect is exceedingly good. Arrangu ;I:;]iower=. HereC ar.e five golden rules that. should be observed by those who often arran-e f:ower. Use plenty oL fohi r n . Put your ilowers in very lightly. Use artistic glasses. Do not usenmore than two, or at most three, diferent kinds cf flowers in one decoration. Arrange your colors to form a bold contrast, or, better still, a soft liar l mony. The aim of the decorator r should be to show off the flowers not the rises that contain them; therefore, the simpler ones are far preferable to even the most elaborate. Glasses for a dinner table should be either white or a deiieate shade of a green, brown or rose color, according ,f to the flowers arranged in them. Artistic Peasant Furniture. Rush-seated chairs and settees with mahogany or stained wood frames are it .aint pieces of furniture shown in the art furniture shops. The wood is ometimes stained forest-green, silver gray like birch bark, soft, light brown, or dead black like old oak. The rush r seats sire usually light reddish brown or pale yellow like willow. Across the broad, flat topkof the chair or settee is painted a motto in old English letter ing, the first letter of each word paint ed in a brighter color than the othei letters, after the fashion of old illum inated lettering. Across the back o a low inglenock seat is painted th sentiment: "East, west, home-sbest, in black letters, the capitals in scar ilet. Across the top of a solid book - case of black oak, with mullionei panes, appears the legend: "Book - are a substantial world, both pure an good; round these our pastime an our happiness will grow " in letters < scarlet and white.
