INARTISTIC HOMES RUINOUS
Like Produces Like Qualities Even In
Household Surroundings.

tsInartistic homes ruin our manners
and morals and wreck our nervous
systems, said Mrs. Herbert Nelson
Curtis Of New York, who is earning
her living by teaching people how to
make their homes beautiful. Pussy,
demonstrating rooms make fussy,
nervous people; gloomy rooms make
gloomy people, and vulgar rooms make
vulgar people.

EVIL associations corrupt good man

It is evil surroundings that corrupt
good manners. In his essay 9On
Going to Church., Bernard Shaw says
that all the vulgarity, savagery and
bad blood that have marred his liter
airy work were laid upon him in the
ugly church where he was forced tc
sit and listen to sermons when he was
boy. The letters and autobiography

OLD STYLES RETURNING
Eighteenth Century Styles In Furniture
to Replace Modern Styles.

Leading foreign decorators aer be
ing quoted as declaring that the So
called modern furniture, as inter
preted at present, has had it's day,
and there is reaction of sentiment in
favor Of return to eighteenth centu-
ever, to modify their pomposity, and
their gilt bronze ornaments, which are
considered too rich. The idea Is to
make them quieter and simpler.
Ole Of the leading authorities IS
to modify the habit Of making din
ing room uniform, as it is monotonous
to have an apartment furnished with
the traditional tables, chairs and side
board. My idea is to make lit a
pleasant and comfortable room, some,
drawing room in the decorations, Of
which paintings and tapestries SHOULD
play part, and where consoles with
peaceful lines may replace the side
boards. -
Another authority asserts that there
is evidently tendency to react against
the uses Of dark wood and painted
wood, as they enable manufacturers OF
shoddy to conceal defective workman;
ship. Light wood to which al natural
color is left is in vogue. Gilt wood
still prevails for chairs, but there are
indications that marquetry furniture
in Adams style is about to become
fashionable.
Z European and American styles have
never fully conceded. but each has had
an effect on the other, and without
doubt the tendencies above noted IN
Paris wiH have an influence on the
more expensive furniture Of our owl
manufacture. Travellers see the. for
eign product. and on their return home
ask. for similar goods, and the demand
will undoubtedly be met.
