THE ARTISTIC WALL.
One Of Solid Color Will Always Give

not detract from their artistic value.
The solid colored wall is also much
better as background for furniture,
and harmonizes much more artistical-

other method of wall treatment. The

a vase of Favrile glass, in which III

are undoubtedly the most popular flow

they are so expensive, and orchids
are almost out of ones reach. The re-

stems, such as roses and pinks. Among
