Bad Temper Not Only Mars Beauty,

OF all the recipes which are suggest

simple one of good temper is left
out, and yet there is nothing more
personally ugly and unattractive in
woman than bad temper, though size
often does not realize this till hci
beauty is marred and her life spoilcl
thereby. Other women may forgiv,
bad temper, but men never do. 1t is ir
their eyes the objectionable sin. anl
rightly SO, seeing that nothing Sc
quickly creates and insures a thor
oughly unhappy home.
Let the girls who are being trainet
for life remember that bad tempe,
will as efectually ruin their chance O.
a happy future as any other hideou
doformity, and when they would be-
ready to sacrifice SO much for the at
tainment Of such power as beauty,

worth while to swallow something for
the requirement of so great and last

WALL PAPERS.
How to Choose Them So That They
VIII Prove Attrnctlve.

VIII Prove Attractive.
Wall papers are attractive when they
are chosen, first, Of a color suitable to
the temperament Of those whose walls
they must adorn; second, in a shade OF
a tone of that color which produces a
pleasant sensation.
A plain or an inconsplcuous paper is
needed for a room where pictures are
to hang.
A frleze is always lighter in tone
than the walls below it, and the ceiling
lighter still.
A low ceiling should not be decorated,
as a general thing as it then seems to
rest on ones head.
The woodwork of room should sug-
gest frame for its walls and ought
never 70 be radically different in tone
unless the architectural lines are good
Figures, flowers and complicated de
signs in wall papers are distracting if
certain laws are disobeyed.
As. for instance a paper with gilt in
it can play strange tricks. 1t is prom
ising and cheerful enough under Ger.
tain lights. while when turned the
other way for an instant it becomes
formless and shiny and out Of harmony
with its surroundings.
Figures that do not match perfectly
have destroyed the comfort of many in
yalids, and aggressive flower papers
grow to seem like "noisy visitors
against whom one can never close the
door"
The walls Of our houses make the set
ting for our everyday lives and fol
our possessions.
