THE DINING ROOM.
New York.

Every dining room should have It's
rug. The quality OF this rug must,
however. vary with the purchasing
power Of the individual Two things
ought TO be remembered: The rug must
not be so thin that II rolls up with ev-
cry chair that is drawn across Il. nor
so thick that no chair can be drawn at
all. The rue, may be laid over a bare
floor a carpet = filling or mating.
Rugs made OF pieces Of carpeting,
with a border, are never possible in
really beautiful dining rooms and are
only to be considered when questions Of
economy have to enter In. II must not
be understood by this that these rugs
are IN bad taste, but simply that they
are a confession Of weakness, as II
were, Of the necessity Of using some
thing which a salesman sometimes
tells you though cheaper, is exactly
as good as the other" Rugs Of every
kind are manufactured today.
The housekeeper has only to take the
dimensions OF her room, state what
price she can afford TO pay and then
choose the best that comes within the
range. Rugs ought always TO be lower
in color key than the rest Of the room
or they seem to jump up at you and
make a most unpleasant effect.
