FINE TUCKED MAErNE NET.
Material Is Largely Taking Place Of
Lace and Chiffon.

For yokes, collars and cuffs fine
tucked maline net is now used to
no small extent, and even threatens to
temporarily take the place Of silk lace
and chiffon in yokes and separate
guimpeS. This net is, of course, un-
usually fine and cheap, so that it is de-
nghtfuny cool to wear, besides from
an economical standpoint being great
advantage in that it can be replaced
whenever soiled at far less expense
than when costly lace yoke must be
repTenished A lining of chiffon and
mousseIine de sole is necessary in this
thin net yoke and collar. in order to
keep the soft net from pulling out Of
shape and tearing.
There is really an astunfsl1fngly
small amount Of lace employed on
many OF the waists and gowns that
are now made up for morning and
afternoon wear, although, of course
lace trimming is required in almost
| any evening model for dinner, bali Oh

from the shoulder well down over the
net sleeve, is often used on a gown
that has no other lace trimming of any
kind. and for this purpose a fairly

THE LIVING ROOM.
Il Should at All Times BE q "LIvable"
Room.

What to do with the living room II
q problem that confronts every house
keeper. The living room should be
In fact as well as in name living
room-a livable room. It 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 room 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 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 hard
Tood 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 tinted or solid col
ored wall. Fortunately 1t is the only
clean way, and more fortunately it is
the only permanent way; the only
way that 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 or colors
which reflect light. In south and
west rooms sometimes the light car

colors. Dark greens absorb the light;
light yellows reflect it; browns mod
fly it, and so on. through the scale
of colors. The color scheme Of q
room not only is dependent upon the
color of the carpetings but it Is also
