white rambler rose the ground work was
a soft sky blue shading to white.
An Optical DeIusion.
Another popular flower scheme is carried
out in daisies, the green and white and
yellow in the rolls being SO stamped on
with an effect Of perspective that when the
paper is hung the walls seem to widen out
into rolling daisy-grown meadows, while
the ceiling above is covered with an opal
escent sort OF blue and white paper that
can be readily accepted as the sky. 1t is
these perspective papers that more than
any other device yet tried have solved the
problem Of how to make a small room look
large and a big, badly lighted one look at
once cheerful and airy and sunshiny. The
proper sort Of trellis wistaria paper put
on a dark, short, low-ceiled passageway
will convert 1t at once into a long, lofty,
light corridor, from the ceiling Of which
huge grape-like clusters of purple wistaria
seem actually hanging and waving in the
air.
TIL daisy meadow wall paper is but one
OF the many perspective effects in growing
MOVERS that have become so popular this
season. Stunning hollyhock, poppy, iris
and lily designs have proved as welcome to
the public. The flowers are printed in
natural colors, but from three to 1--WE times
their natural height of stalk and size OF
blossom. These are used extravagantly for
second-story Railways and nurseries. The
water plants naturally go into the bath
rooms, though the most charming design
there is done in ferns and vine patterns.
New Mural Ideas.
The clerk at the wall paper dealers can
show two new mural ideas for downstairs
living rooms. For the den, devoted to the
pipe and secluslon OF the head Of the house,
is a truly fascinating sporting print paper.
1t is printed in a lacy green foliage pat
tern to represent an ideal road winding
through a country where It is always
springtime. On this road at Intervals APP
pears a fo~ur-in-hand. a motor carriage that
looks able to beat any record, a leisurely
fisherman whipping a stream from an old
gray bridge and a golfer taking refreshment
outside a very inviting Inn. A deep and
brilliant frieze for this shows the English
inn In all the stages Of hospitable enter
tainment.
The clerk that displays these howery rolls
to the householder who is looking for up
stairs papers brings forward another type
OF goods when the living rooms are under
consideration. This season he has a nov
city TO show, which is no more or less than
a bas-relief paper, which, when rightly
applied, gives any room the pleasing as

brown or golden luster, in the mode Of
King James or George Washington. as h'gh
as your head or higher, and do 1t all with
a material that is called paper, and that
gives an effect as pleasing as though the

usually arranged to run up from four to
six feet ard then a suitable cartridge, bur

to the ceiling.

Fresh and Salt Water Sorts

time to time to renew the water. which
evaporates slowly.
The principle Of a salt water balanced
aquarium is practically the same as for one
OF fresh water. 1t is we'll to procure water
at or near high tide IL it is taken in a bay
near the shore, or a river situated like the
Hudson. The water at such a time will
have greater density and less foreign mat
ter. Coarser gravel may be used and pieces
OF rock are necessary for the sea anemones,
which will attach themselves to the smooth
places. 1t is necessary to remove all dead
matter every day, as in the case Of the
fresh water aquarium. There is consider
able variety OF animal life to choose from.
The sea anemone, or flowers OF the sea- Of
which several species are found in the i'm
mediate vicinity Of this city, is first Of all.
Living coral can be procured on Long
Island. The cunning little lebia is the
prettiest OF fishes. About the only marine
plant that is always trustworthy for aera-
tion is sea lettuce (ulva latissima), which
grows in sheets and is found in tide pools
and near shore in shallow water. Instead
OF placing this plant on the bottom OF the
aquarium, use pieces OF cork and float a
portion Of each sheet. allowing the re-
mainder 70 hang down near the bottom to-
ward the rear side. This will give a clear
view OF the animal life and furnish a beau
tiful background. A little sunlight for a
salt water aquarium is not Injurious. but
Il must not be used too often, and only for
a short time. II proper care is taken the
balance can be maintained for years."

Rufus Jauman, a Glover Leaf engineer,
caught in a wreck near Kokomo, Ind, a
year ago, is wearing a new face, as the
result Of a marvellous feat in ekin grating.
In the wreck the engineer had both ears
burned of close to the head. his chin and
nose were torn of, his eyelids cut of and
his entire scalp was torn way, not a hair
being left on his head. After a years
treatment he was released from the hospital
this week. For nearly 200 consecutive days
Jauman was on the operating table, where
long strips Of skin were cut from his legs
and applied to the face. An oculist re-
paired the eyelids, making them as good as
new. BY degrees a new chin and nose were
grown. The ears and hair could not be re-
stored, but a wig was given him, the long,
flowing locks of which concealed the spot
where the ears formerly were. The engi-
neer is now in good health and experiences
