AS to Complaints.

Inc letter from MOTTleElile plu-
lished in another column is a
fair sample of at least dozen
that we have received within the
last few weeks complaining either
that whole packages Of papers
had failed entirely to reach the
Offices referred to, or were hope
lessly late in arriving. Then, too,
we are fairly besieged with COM
plants from individuals that they
have not received their copies of
the paper for one, two, three and
even four weeks as the case may
be-. TO answer all these COM
plants personally would require
an extra office force, therefore We
make this explanation to cover
them all.

n LIVING ROOM.
e Should at All Times Be a "LIvable"
Room.

What to do with the living room Is
keeper. The living room should be
in fact as we'll as in name q living
rOOm-a livable room. 1t Is the room
In which the most of our time at
home is spent, the hours we have for
leisure, the time we have for play,
the place where we entertain our
friends and it is absolutely essential
that the walls and furnishings of the
living DON should be harmonious in
color, suitable in texture, and durable
in material.
The rich, soft, solid colored walls
are the ideal walls for the living
rooms. They make a better back
ground for pictures, throw the furni-
ture out in better relief, are less dis
cordant with rugs and carpeting, and
indicate a higher degree of taste and
culture than do the colored mon
strosities which we paste on when we
apply wall paper.
Who ever saw roses climbing up a
plastered wall growing out of a hard
wood floor? Yet, that is what we
suggest to the Imagination when we
paste paper covered with roses on
our walls. They are neither artistic
nor true. Roses are all very beauti-
full, but they were never made to
climb up interior walls and they do
not grow from hardwood flooring.
The set figures of wall paper are also
tiresome and equally ~disagreeable and
repellant.
The alabastined wall is the only
correct form of q tinted or solid col
ored wall. Fortunately it is the only
clean way, and more fortunately it is
the only permanent way; the only
way hat does not involve the end
less labor in the future.
In lighting the walls some thought
must be given the color. Light colors
reflect $50 of the light thrown upon
them. Dark colors reflect but 1870.
Lighting bills can be saved by choos-
ing a color which will reflect the
largest degree of light. In north
rooms use warm colors OF colors
which reflect light. In south and
west rooms sometimes the light can
be modified by the use Of darker
colors. Dark greens absorb the light;
light yellows reflect it; browns mod
ify it, and so on, through the scale
of colors. The color scheme of a
room not only is dependent upon the
color of the carpetings but it is also
dependent upon the light of the DON
