FOR BEST EFFECTS
USE CARE IN ARRANGEMENT OF
PICTURES.
Two Things to Remember In Theli
Display-Harmony Is the One
Great Thing to Be
Achieved.

Arranging pictures artistically is q
difficult task. To hang them SO
landscape, portrait, ETC., will show tG
best advantage and be symmetrical
without appearing stiff, is hard
piece Of work, and to do it successful
ly two things must be remembered.
First, that to mix subjects is bad, and
secondly, that different style frames
should not be grouped together That
is to say, a gilt one must not be placed
among several of oak, and water
colors must not be hung with engrav
ings, for the contrast is too great

Some one has been making it prac-
tice of entering the Teller house from
the rear, or otherwise forcing the door
for a nights lodging, and on each oc-
casion different room was used. Man
ager Lipp has been keeping his eye
open for the intruder and if he is caught
it will go pretty hard with him. Mr..
Lipp has pretty good idea as to who
the party is and says "he wants to
catch the house-breaker in the act"
Gilpin observer., 1907-11-28

All water colors must be together,
and engravings should be so hung
that the eye rests upon them alone.
Religious pictures are incongruous If
put with French or fancy subjects
The end to be aimed for in arrang.
ing pictures is harmony. A room
with its walls in crazy quilt effect de-
notes bad taste or ignorance, some
times both, and the eyes and mind,
instead Of being pleased, are Jared,
and an artistic picture is ruined by
such hanging.
In fixing the walls OF house 1t
Is well to select the pictures that are
to go in each room, remembering that
certain subjects, like wall papers, are
best suited to special places. For
parlors, choose etchings, photographs
or oil paintings.
Water colors or photographs are
good for dining-rooms, though person
ally l prefer no pictures. liking In
stead china, pewter and mirrors.
These make the room quite distinc-
tive and a marked change from the
others.
Pictures for bedrooms. like hang
ings there. should be light both In
subject and framing.
Having sorted out ones possessions
Of this kind. careful thought should be
given to the placing OF each subject.
All should be suspended from nails
with wires so short that they are hid
den behind the pictures. unless the
frames are too heavy. This method,
OF course, makes a bad place in the
wall, but wire is never slightly, and
once picture is hung In this fashion
1t must stay.
AS trial a good way of getting
an effect is to clear place on the
floor the size Of the wall and on this
lay the pictures In the way you
think they should go. Try one scheme
after another until the best is found,
and then duplicate 1t on the wall. Re.
member that to hang pictures too high
skies" them. and OF the two extremes
1t is better that they should be too
low. This latter position is not desir-
able, however, as 1t pulls down" the
ceiling In effect and makes the room
look top heavy. To avoid either of
these mistakes wrap one end of the
wire loosely in the, ring and then
slide the picture IpF and down until
the best height Is seen.
To lay down specific rules for hang
Ing pictures is impossible, and some
times 1t is only by studying those one
has for days that an artistic arrange.
ment can be worked out. Time for
this should not be grudged, though,
for the best picture ever painted may
be ruined by the hanging, and a whole
room made charming by the artistic
handling Of simple print.
