Sun-Dials and inscriptions.

io"h SOuuITN.
NO prettler or more romantic feature
for the garden is there than an old sun
dial, or good copy of an old one, ad-
vantageously placed at the intersection
OF two paths with some delicate creeper
cllnging to its pedestal and with beds
of gay flowers, symmetrical patches of
lawn and trim hedges surrounding it.,
Within the last two years sun-dials
have grown vastly in popularity in this
country and old models have been
studied and copied with excellent ef
feet.
The ancestral homes of England have
beautiful specimens of sun-dials, and our
Colonial gardens, the old fashioned ones
of New England and the more formal
ones of Virginia.. usually had these
"lovers' clocks"
Altho one may not be always sure of
catching ones train by sun-dial time, it
time by which to do tibet beautiful work
of idleness.' It is, as Lamb puts it,
Inappropriate for sweet plants and
brSs to TO ap spas their Tor sl veT
warbling by, for fiocks to pasture and
to be ledto fold by The sun-dial
only counts the sunny hours. 1t is the
ideal timepiece Of the garden Of leisure.
1t does not interrupt our idle ease by
tolling the hours and interrupt us by
reminding us they are passing. 1t is
glad that we should forget and some
times with the help of a friendly cloud
it refuses to tell us that we have al
ready outstayed our appointed hour in
the sun. lie Galliene's charming mot
to for a sun-dial is: ..r
SHADOW and sun--so, too. our lives are
made-Yet think how great the sun, how
| small the shade!' .t

Some Library Don'ts,

The following don IT'S in library fur
nishing from House Beautiful are based
on photograph of library in mill
lionaire s. mansion:
Don't place a bronze figure of Mer-
curry in window where it appears to be
pulling down the drapery with one hand
and crushing lampshade with one foot.
Place the statue where it will seem less
destructive. $50
Don't place a lamp near q lace cur
tain or in any other part of the room
where to light it would mean to call
out the fire department.
| Don't place marble busts or bronze
| figures where they look so insecure that
reading a book in comfort is an impos-
sibility. .s. -.-.-.
| Don't choose pedestals that are @
ornamental that the objects placed on
the pedestals become secondary in i'm.
| portance. -
Don't buy pedestals anyway if you
can avoid it.
If you must have them, don't place
them so near your library shelves that
the books cannot be taken down with.
out moving all the furniture.
| Don t place books and porcelain vases
side by side.
Don't use ball fringe on your cur.
tains.
This advice is written for million
aires, but it may be read by others,
and taken to heart.

Antiques That Pay.
House Beautiful.

If properly acquired, antiques cost
less than limitations. The lowboy which
stands in our hall was purchased in the
rough for $3.50. Some vandal had cut
off the legs, the top was warped, and
paint covered the woodwork and
brasses. New feet had to be spliced on,
the top leveled, and the original color
restored to the wood. The cost of res.
toration amounted to 500, making total
of $28.50. The handles when polished
revealed dainty design and motto. No
good imitation could be looked at for
that price. Furthermore, the lowboy
could not be duplicated for SIS.
