A RosE-coLoRED ROOM.
White Wood and Furniture Pleasing
Contrast to Pink Walls.

A charming bedroom where the ut
most effect of daintiness can be OBJ
tained with very practical means is
the rose-colored room, but an equally
good effect can be secured by using
water blue or green in light and agree
able shades, says a writer In the
Woman's Home Companion. If rose
color is preferred, pleasing tint can
be made by sparing and careful ad-
dition of vermilion, or of the scarlet
used in carriage painting, to cream
white This means that a small amount
Of yellow ochre is first added to the
white paint and thoroughly incorpor-
,ated with it before the vermilion or
scarlet is added. The woodwork of the
room should be painted cream white,
and the walls have three coats Of pink
the first two considerably darker
than the last, as the last is lighter, 1t
gives misty effect which is very
soft and satisfying. After the last coat
is we'll dried border of cream white
should be stenciled at the top of the
wall next the ceiling. 1t may be wide
or narrow, as one prefers; but if wide,
the lower part of it, for third of the
width, should be family or thinly
painted, in order to have it blend
properly into the wall. 1t is necessary
only to use a full brush at the top
and a comparatively empty one at
the bottom of the stencil to secure
this effect, and even an unintelligent
workman can do it if the object is
explained to him.
If a narrow border is used, what IS
called a floating design" may be
added to the wall; and this also should
be varied by the use of more or less
paint in the brush, so that some Of the
floating forms should look like tha
mere reflection of the others. The
furniture of this room would be prefer
| ably of cream-white enamel to match
! the woodwork, but bedroom set in
natural wood could be used If more
| convenient. The curtains should be OF
pink chambray or pink denim under
white muslin, and 1t will add to the
beauty of the room If the counterpane
is made in the same way. A sage-green
carpet harmonizes exceedingly well
with this scheme of color and gives
what one may call a pastel effect to
| the room.

Only a Cold.

"OnIy a cold," is common ex-
preston. And so the victim lets 1t
go on, day after day, red eyes, swol-
len features, lsssitude, sleeplessness,
loss of appetite, the irritating
cough.
In itself a cold may be simply un-
comfortable. In its results it is Of
ten fatal. Pneumonia, with its enor-
nous fatality; consumption, with its
deadly grip; bronchitis, asthma,
these and many ailments are often
the direct result of a cold.
The patient may have had many
colds, They have resulted in moth
ing serious. But when the system
has become weakened by these re-
peated attacks, when the mucous
membranes are in a chronic un-
healthy condition, then it is these
fatal maladies assert themselves.
This is no greater mistake than to
neglect cold. At its first appear
ance measures should be taken to re-
lieve it. AT this season of the year,
when coughs and colds are common,
Peruna should be kept constantly in
the house. At the first symptom
this remedy should be taken. 1t will
soothe the mucous membranes, re-
lieve the irritation, and the cold
will gradually disappear. That this
has been the experience of many is
proven by the hundreds of grateful
letters in our files.
