The Way People Sit.

1t Is one thing to have Il chair and
another to know how to sit on it. The
ideal of graceful sitting posture has
varied in the different ages of the
world. The Egyptians sat bolt upright,
the knees and feet closely pressed to-
gether. 1t was the ceremonial attitude.
The Greeks and Romans, when their
seats had no backs and they were at
liberty to forget their dignity, sat
stopping, with one or both elbows sup
ported by the arms. The Chinese ideal
was the knees and feet wide apart
They have maintained that attitude in
sitting for 1000 years. The Sayons and
early Norman kings are represented in
old manuscripts and on coins in the
same position. Down to a date COM
paratively recent kings and queens re-
ceived sitting stihly on their thrones,
any marked change of posture being
thought to derogate from the royal dig
nifty. They now receive standing.

An odd decoration for "den" is in
the form of good sized drapery of
fine leather, soft brown in shade and
having design Of pine tree limbs cut
out upon it. The peculiar feature of the
decoration is that, let in behind the
branches, is satin colored to suggest a
sunset sky. The tints are reddish brown,
harmonizing with the leather, yet
warm enough to suggest rich sunset
tone. The leather is inclosed In a scroll
of etching work. colored in brownish
olive tones, and at the top of the simu-
lated frame has been placed cluster
of pine cones in burnt work. The pine
tree limbs are also shaded in pyro-
graphic effects. The "skin" hangs upon
the door and lends an artistic decora,
tive touch to the apartment.

TabIecIoth Made of Collars.

Here is good idea for getting an
elaborate tablecloth at small cost. A
woman who plies her needle skillfully
bought some lace collars at a great re-
ducfion, they being of fine quality, but
too extreme to remain in style. She
worked these up into tablecloth, two
forming centerplece and one being
placed in each corner. Such a cloth,
if purchased under ordinary conditions,
would have cost about 5000, while she
obtained 1t for few dollars.

Pictures In the Home.

When we enter a home, among the
first things to attract our attention are
the pictures, and from them we can
read the taste, or lack of 1t, of the lady
of the house, for they give us the key
note to her character. If we find
gaudy chromos and cheap oil paintings
made by lightning artists" we know
at once that refinement is lacking in
that home. Pictures should be selected
always with an eye to the surround
ings in which they will be placed. If
the house is very large and handsome,
and money of no consideration, then
of course Oil paintings by the best art
lists are preferable. People of moder-
ate incomes who wish tasteful homes
should choose water colors, engravings
or etchings If they can be afforded.
Artists signed proofs are most deslra-
BILE, but no better than good copies,
with the exception Of the signature,
which is supposed to add value.

in Georgian (miscalled coloniaD styles
are the best investment. If money is
not plentiful, you may at all events
congratulate yourself that much of the
odious gilt and highly decorated furni-
ture is beyond your limit. Good de-
signs are to be had nowadays at mod
crate cost. If, like most of us, you are
uncertain as to what constitutes good
design" select plain articles. Eschew
little railings, brackets, mirrors and
other fancy touches. Do not buy any
of the combination bureau washstands,
bookcase desks and the like. Then
your pieces will be at least unobjec-
tionable, which is often more than can
be said for the furnishings of your
wealthy neighbor Buy no more fur
niture than you absolutely need. A
crowded room is a practical and artis-
tic offense. If your quarters are small,
window seats will allow you to dis
pense with a chair or two. Shallow
bookshelves and hanging cabinets
should relieve you of bric-a-brac, so
that desk or one table will hold a
lamp, magazine or two, writing ma
terials or a workbasket, according to
the requirements of the occupant.-Pil-

long life, while cobweb design Is for
