Hints in Mural Decoration.

Young housekeepers, and old ones, too.
for that matter, often find the decoration of
walls and ceilings a hard nut to crack. even
when the house is their own and moderate
expenditure of money quite within thei1
reach for the purpose. But when the
apartments are rented, says an Eastern ex-
change, with the prospect of fitting to
some others at no very remote period star
ing one i'll the face, the question what to
do with the blank white walls is puZzler.
1t is worse still when an attempt at decora-
ton, resulting in an atrocious combination
of colors, had been made.
10 the young housekeeper who has al
her furnishings yet TO buy the solution is
comparatively simple. She will, if she be
wise, determine the color or effect which
she wishes to carry out, and will then pro-
coed with an eye single to that idea. The
walls will be dealt with first. and the carpet
and hangings and upholstery selected with
reference to it. Where economvis the object,
dis!emper may be resorted to. or fatted
oil paint, which, on account of the readi-
ness with which it lends itself to thoronc,h
cleansing with soap and water, is recom-
mended as preferable to distemper. Hay-
ing settled upon either one or the other,
the question of tint suggests itself. Here
the situation OF the room, its size and
height, enter in. Shall it be light or dark
in tone, pos tive or broken color? What
is the color of the woodwork? These arc
questions which each one must ask and
answer for herself; but it is safe, in our
climate. TO decide upon warm rather than
a cold tint, OF medium depth of tone and
broken rather than positive color.
Another safeguard is to make the walls
lighter than the wood work, and the golden
rule to have the coloring to become lighter
as it ascends must not be lost sight Of
Thus, if the frieze is strong and deep in
coloring the walls must be much darker,
and the carpet or other floor covering darker
still. 1t is better to lean toward harmony of
analogy than to contrasts when dealing with
large surfaces, especially if one is not sure
of herself

A Commonplace Miliionairess.

The recent death of Cornelia Stewart
serves to point the moral that money does
not alone give supreme happiness. Great
wealth was her only enyiable possession.
1t is reported that she lived and died worth
twenty to thirty millions of dollars.
She could not at any time in her life
aspire to be called beautiful in face or form.
Her features were irregular and large, hel
form thin and light.
She was neither fond of literature nor art.
She never read books, and only acted as
custodian of the suberb art collection her
husband made during his life time.
She had no children to amuse her soil
tary life, and society at large had no charms
for her. She possessed none o: the quail
tications to shine in its lea ms and her
great wealth shut out all ambitions. She
lived alone with her servants in her five
million dollar palace. Her table, we are
told, furnished only the plainest dishes,
and of these she partook in solitary grand
eur.
Her charities are said to have been nu-
merous, but as quiet as her life, the only
exception being her splendid gift to the
Protestant Episcopal Church at Garden
City. Her heart, however, must have been
kindly toward her relatives, as nieces,
nephews, brother and sisters are all gem
erously rewarded in her will.
She was Il commonplace woman, who
lived a commonplace life. Her life, while
uneventful, was not particularly unhappy.
While it was not moved by the extremes OF
Joyous existence, it was not troubled by the
tumutuous turmoils of lie.
Hers was an existence furnishing a cul
to quietly philosophize over in the quiet
evening hours; it would never be an in
