Norfolk Ledger: We are glad to see
that the proper committee Of the Lesfsla-
ture to pass upon the subject has decided
to recommend an appropriation of $500 0
for the purpose Of making q Virginia
display at the ST. Louis Exposition The
money will, in our opinion be wisely
invested. as it will afford an opportunity
for such a display Of V!rsinla's re-
sources as will yied la sc returns. North
Carolina has derived great benefit from
the money that has been expended to
advertise the resources Of that State. and
Virginia will be similarly benefited by
letting her advantages be known to tho

FITTING UP THE LIBRARY.
Suggestions Toward Creating Ideal
Place for Enjoyment Of Books.

Devotion to books and reading Is a
distinctive mark OF our new century. It
naturally follows that, in the fitting-up
OF the house. the library is of primary
importance. Comfort and beauty, ex-
pressed with originality, are the most
desirable attributes 10 attain here.
writes Alice NJ. kellogg in New York
Evening Post.
quiet location for the room Is the
nfst requirement to secure. and in
building a new house this is always
possible. In a rented house the ques-
ton Is more problematical. The tenn
pered light of a north or east exposure
is better for reading and writing than
the sunny outlook of the south or
west. To exact the utmost amount OF
daylight. the windows should have only
Holland shades against the panes. ar
ranged to draw from the top to the
bottom. as well as from, the bottom TO
the top Straight draperies of thick
material may be added during the win
ter months TO shut out evening
ira lights And. indeed, as the library
is most useful in the cold season and
inoIemeat weather. it should have
every appliance for warmth.
An open fireplace can be made the inn
portant feature of the room, by giving
il generous opening. harmonious fac
ing of tile or brick, and a nlantel of
good design. Further heating by hot
water or hot air should be introduced,
