room, two-story Queen Anne Cottage

erecting two new buildings in Broad

A CHARMING BEDROOM.
An Esthetic Chamber in Yellow and
Gray Which Delights with It's
Soft Harmony of Tints.

Another suggestion for a girls room
could be carried out in yellow and
gray. The woodwork and floors are
to be painted a beautiful French gray,
with wax finish. The wall to be plain
yellow pulp to the height Of about
seven feet; above this a paper of white
ground with laburnum tumbling in
wild confusion; on the ceiling a plain
white tint. A photograph rail, paint
cd gray, may divide the lower from the
upper wall. A white linen taffeta comes
with beautiful branches of yellow la
burnum; this would be pretty for cur
tains and chair seats. The sofa or
divan could be covered with grey can
ton flannel, with plenty of pillows COW
cred with laburnum taffeta.
inexpensive furniture painted white
would be charming with this scheme.
A white enameled bed. brass, or a
wooden bed painted white, would any
of them be suitable.
A carpet to salt this room will be
hard to find, but a Martha Washing
ton rug, the correct size for your
room, could be woven in yellow with a
white design running through it, and
should be made on a white warp. A
wide margin Of grey-painted floor
should be left all around the rug.
White dotted Swiss sash curtains,
and a dotted Swiss bedspread over yell
low sateen, would be very dainty and
girlish.-Elizabeth Biddle, Philadelphia
