rNHE MORNING HERALD

THE MORNING HERALD
For 1854 will be the cheapest morning paper pub
lished in the city of Baltimore. 1t will also be
the best. While it will make speciality of local
and State news, it claims the world for its field,
and each issue of THE MORNING HERALD
will be a complete and compact history of the
events of the previous day. The story will be
told entertainingiy and while it will not be long
enough to tire you it will not be too short to be
interesting. 1t will be spicy but vulgar. 1t
will not pander to prurient tastes but will be pre-
eminently paper for the business man and his
family. No man will be compelled to read THE
MORNING HERALD before taking it home, in
order to make sure that it contains no matter un-
fit for the eye of women and children. Its editors
will him that trouble by keeping these objec-
tionable features out of the paper altogether
THE MORNING HERALD will be, as in the
past, Republican in politics; it believes in the
protection of American labor and will earnestly
oppose any effort to abolish the tariff, which has
done so much to build up the industries Of our
country it is under no obligations to any corpor-
alton its editorial columns are under no control
save that of its editor, and when THE MORN
ING HERALD has any opinion to express it
expresses it fearlessly and in language sufficiently
plain to be understood by everybody. THE
MORNING HERALD will be honest in politics
as in everything else and party fealty will not
prevent it from exposing any rascality or con-
demning any unwise and improper acts. THE
MORNING HERALD will appear about Jaunary
1st in a complete new dress of type, which we be-
leve will make it by long odds the handsomest
newspaper in Baltimore and as handsome as any
paper in the country.
THE SUNDAY HERALD
Is acknowledged even by its rivals to be the best
Sunday paper published in this city. A special
cable letter from London, correspondence from
Paris, Washington and other great cities, well
selected miscellany, bright and entertaining
stories and plentiful supply of local and tee-
graph news are few of the features that make
its eghtpages rich storehouse of the best reading
THE WEEKLY HERALD
published every friday an eight-page paper,
chronicles all domestic and foreign events of i'm
portance occurring during the week, well selected
miscellany, hints to the farmer and housekeeper,
deyoting an entire page to financial and CONNER
cial reports-in fact, il contains all the
sential to all who not in the habit of reading
a daily paper.

The Hospitality of Furniture.

A writer on taste has incidentally
called attention to certain principles
that must be observed in a room if it is
to impress the visitor with sense of
comfort or beauty. For one thing there
must be variety in it. 1t is not neces-
sary to buy whole set of furniture
alike, but there should be one prevail
.u5 SOIOI, sNalu-6asis ul.i-i,
build. There should also be care taken
to furnish the wall spaces. 1t is an ad-
mirable plan to pull a sofa out, but if
in doing so great empty space is left
the room is made bare. In such case
the sofa could be turned so as to break
the stiff line, and yet remain against
the wall. But the great secret of COM
fort and of giving an immediate effect
of pleasant living is in the making of
corners. What does an open fire amount
to if an easy chair does not stand in
front of it, or lovely view from win
dow if the curtain has to be drawn up
and the visitor has to look out? No,
what we want is a chair by the fire;
the light on the table and the lounge
pushed near it; the easy seat by the
window were a good light falls all ready
and waiting. 1t is all in vain to put
baskets of bright woods about, books or
portfolios of engravings, to give "home
look" if the convenient and comfort
able seat is not added. The visitors
who, coming in, finds an easy chair by
the fire, and near it the little stand
with the magazine, can endure wait
ing a few moments, because he feels
that his welcome has met him. The
chair by the window, the fan ready to
be picked up, the bench under the tree,
the seat on the porch, are the successes
of hospitality 1t is not given to every
one to appreciate pictures, or to feel
color, but every one delights in being
made comfortable
