PAINTED WALLS
INSTEAD OF PAPER

MANY women who are having theii
houses done over are choosing pain;
instead of paper for all the upstairs
rooms.
They think this method more hygienic
and more cleanly. The walls can be
washed down and do not need to be
renewed each season.
Not only pale tints. but rich. warn.
ones are used. such as terra Gotta, Ger
man blue and dull red. All the tones
OF heavy gray are popular.
For the nursery light blue. rose pink
and leaf green are used. The ceiinf
and walls are alike and there is no at
TEMPT at fresco or dado. A moldint
is used Of stained wood usually white
or. huff
Painted walls. with varnished ha-d
wood floors insure cleanliness ana
health in the sleeping room.
Women and children who have tried
these find themselves suffocating ~
rooms with carpets. thick wall papers
and curtain drapery.
Newest sofa cushions are made Of
two materials-for example. burlap ana
be the cover itself while a design. us
uallv conventional. NAV be cut from
the middle and filed I'm with burlap,
which is based into place on the under
side. The edges of the denim are then
buttonholed To the buriap. which not
ONLY. prevents the latter from slipping
but also keeps the edges Of the denim
from turning hack
Sometimes. instead Of cutting the de-
sign from the cover itself. the design
NAV be cut out of the other material
and applioued to the cushion cover
Such cover might be Of unbleached
linen. while a design. say of water lilies
might be comfortable next the face
when the pillow is in use.
OF course. to cut a design from r
solid material some talent is required;
but if. instead of denim or linen, ere.
J tonne were used. the work would b'
/ simplicity itself. and the cretonne j:
usually buttonholed into place.
