Good COLOR for Houses.

II is not generally known-not even
among painters-why certain tints and
colors wear much better than others on
houses, and the knowledge Of just what
tints are best to use is, therefore, rather
hazy.
One writer on paints, in a recent book,
says that experiments seem to show that
those colors which resist or turn back
the heat rays Of the sun, viii protect a
house better than those which allow these
rays TO pass through the film.
Thus red is a good color because It
turns back, or reflects the red rays, and
the red rays are the hot rays.
In general, therefore, the warm tones
are good and the cold tones IRE poor, so
far as wear is concerned. In choosing
the color of paint for your house, select
reds, browns, grays and olives, which,
considering the various tones these tints
win produce, will give a wide range from
which TO choose.
Avoid the harsh tints, such as cold
yellows like lem0n), cold green's like
grass green, ete), and the blues.
IL must be understood that no virtue
is claimed for tints in themselves, ire
spective of the materials used in the
paint. Any color viii fade, and the paint
will scale off, If adultefated white lead
or canned paint is used. but if one is
careful to use the best white lead-some
well known brand Of a reliable manufac-
turer-and genuine linseed oil, the warm
tints mentioned above will outwear the
same material tinted with the cold colors

AutOmObiIino in the Alps.

Automobilists in Europe are Jubi-
liant Heretofore they have been
barred from the glorious Alpine passes
between Switzerland and Italy. but
now the canton of Valais has granted
permission to take automobiles over
the Simplon road. thus suggesting a
new use for the passes that have be-
come comparatively unfrequented
since the mountains were tunneled
for railways. To be sure. It is only
on certain days in the week that the
road is to be open for motor cars, and
they must leave Brigue before three
o'clock In the afternoon. and must
stop whenever there is danger of
stampeding cattle; but the wedge has
entered. and there is reason to be-
lieVe that the other cantoAs will soon
follow the example OF Valais. The
opening Of the Brunig pass, which
connects Lucerne with Interlaken.
will probably not be long delayed.
While there is thus a growing toll
erance Of automobiles. there seems TO
be considerable opposition to the
multiplication OF mountain railways,
especially in the Engadine. where both
the Piz Langnard and the Piz Julier
projects have been voted down. The
Engadiners have also made up their
minds to rescue their scenery from
the ravages of advertisers; the hotel
keepers have resolved to boycott all
firms that mar II with their placards.
The chief problem now confronting
these hotel keepers is how to per
suade tourists that June and Septem-
Der are the most enjoyable months in
the Alps. lnasmuch as they daily
have TO turn away applicants for
rooms In July and August their mo-
tives In giving such advice are apt to
be questioned. They might cite Rus
kin. says the New York Post. who
used to chide his countrymen for Wis
iting Switzerland in midsummer in
stead Of in May and June; but this
argument is apt to be spoiled by the
weather. The season was so late this
year that the Furka pass could not
be opened to traffc before June .. or
