Simplicity in Furnishings
Show Taste and Culture.

Why is it some housekeepers over
crowd their homes with furnishings and
ornamentation? 1t seems to lie an
AmericaniSm. so seldom are the houses
of our cousins across the water thus
treated The great French salons and
the prominent London drawing rooms,
where wealth abides, are elegant
through their simplicity. The homes of
the working classes are simple and
gaudy ornament is seldom seen.
Some women have absolutely false
! ideas of economy. This is nowhere
more apparent than when they buy
household furnishings.
Everything in the house that does not
add something to the convenience. hap

some member Of the family is an eX-
| travagance.
The woman who would expect all her
relationS-in-law to fly Mt her with ham
mer and t0ngs if she were to buy a ST
pair of curtains, would calmly and with
10 thought of being eXtravagant spend
that amount of money buying six vases
at 81 each, merely that she might have
something to set around to fill up the
bare places.
1t is right here. in this filling up Of
the bare places and empty corners, that
| housewives are most eXtravagant, and it
is right here that they make the most
mistakes.
Don't fill up the bare places. Don't
try to fill MP the empty corners. Homes

These filters are not attractive; they
never mean anything to anyone III the
