sidered his best work. AS the story Is

HOW TO Select Color Schemes For
Rooms.

After deciding what shall be the pre-
Dominating color in the room and what
shades or colors you desire to use with
It. arrange the colors together and
study the effect carefully. 1t will be
found that some combinations bring
out all the good and pleasing qualities
Of the different coiors, while other
combinations are discordant- There
are many things to take into consider
ation-the exposure Of the room, the
amount Of light and the style Of the
house, whether In city or country. Soft
finishes, either In walls or draperies,
blend more readily than does the
smooth or glace finish.-Ladies' Home
