CLOSET DOORS.

Feature In Home Decoration.

They May BE Made an Important
Feature In Home Decoration.
Closet doors now form a feature in
home decoration. For a harmonizing
effect a curtain can be hung in any
room where there is a closet, with
rich velours. n jute, a pretty cretonne
or a shade of blue denim. These hang
ings should match the color scheme, OF,
IL desired, Complementary tint can be
utilized for the purpose. Draperles Of
this sort should run easily and be
poled In ash. walnut, mahogany or the
white painted wood ornamented with
gilt
A pretty idea FOR a closet in a break
fast yoom where the everyday china is
kept is to take or the door and hang
from the second shelf a drapery in a
snowy design Of cretonne, a madras Of
rich colored effects or an artistic pat
tern Of jute. The upper shelf can then
be decorated with jugs, teapot or
any other bit of faience suitable for
the purpose.
As a novel treatment society wom-
an had the panels of her company
room closets furnished with looking
glasses beyelcd on all sides and set in
a moldlng Of gilt. The rest Of the wood
work was painted in an ivory white.
The handle which opened the door was
Of cut glass in a rich colonial pattern,
finished with nickel plated silver. Al
the top OF the woodwork Of the door
was the motto, EAST OF West, Homes
the Best" composed OF large wooden
letters slightly picked out in gilt, A
smaller one opposite was hung with an
upholstery of the same stun and de-
sign Of the room curtains.-New York

A unique fourfold screen has for its

of the screen is that, instead Of being
dressed in scarlet for Scottish plaids,
