IL is to arrange the rooms with the most

industry win an enviable reputation
Elegance consists not so much ia the
sculpture Of the marble ornament, the
Brilliant iints of the carpet, The rose
wood or mahogny,t but in the pure
spiri, which sits queen presiding over
the inmates Of the home Of taste. Con
tentment there puts on its mos, graceful
charms and sheds a sweet serenity over
j, thesscene of lis abode; il Transforms the
3. tesert and, waste, places into gardens
bright as Edens powers. See to it.,
then, iha your dwellings are embeilish-
ed with natures own BRIGHT orna ments.

plant, too, sweet summer flowers; they
