Some Timely Advice
on Selecting Furniture

Americans usually go into ecstasy
Bver the splendid antique French fur
niture collected in the Louvre and the
equally attractive English furniture
found in the KensingtOn museum in
London. Though Chicago cannot
boast OF having a great deal of antique
furniture, visit to any of the large
stores cOnvinces one. that few cities
have more splendid assortment of
perfect reproductions and every va
riety of modern furniture.
Tudor, Elizabethan, Chippendale
Louis XIV, XIV, XVI, but not on
Eriendliest terms with mission and
arts and crafts. Here is seen a state
" chair that might have graced Mary
Etuart's hall, EIizabeth's Iovelier
drawing room, or Marie Antoinette's
boUdoiT
But the new is not lost sight of in
the old; there is the Dutch colonial
from Pennsylvania, the French colon
jal from New Orleans. modern adapta-
tons Of these with more comfortable
mission and willow furniture.
The assortment is so large that the
task Of selecting furniture appears
extremely difficult. but it is really a
fascinating pastime if certain ideas
be kept IN mind.
Quality, Not Quantity, Counts.
Whether the amount to be spent on
= piece or set be large or small, each
must be good of its kind. 1t must be
Of good wood, have excellent work
manship and attractive hues.
Furniture must be selected in ref
erence TO the general furnishing; for
instance, a Queen Anne bed should
not be placed in d Marie Antoinette
bedroom. nor Louis XIV. chair in an
EliZabethan hall Then, too, there is
the color scheme to be considered ;
dark furniture should go with dull
hues and light furniture with light
drapings and wall paper
AS one of the largest manufacturers
of furniture in this city says: Let
the stores offer the right goods and
customers find little trouble in max
ing their selection. A man or woman
may not know d chair by its high
sounding name of JacObin, a dfvan by
the word Louis XIV, and a buffet after
the name of Sheraton, but if they are
there and well made he is naturally
drawn to the best by the style and
workmanship
Period furniture has place in GER
tain homes If the rooms are large and
elaborate enough to support them.
The average size hall should be fur
nished in oak or mahogany; whether
II is pISin or carved depends on in
dividuai taste. The old fashioned hat
trees are once more popular, but some
prefer a seat with glass.
Proper Hall Table is Rather High.

Table Must Have Real Use.

To have the furnishing complete
there must be a library table large

also should be a large settee with
loose cushions made of leather or

Extremely comfortable hall chairs
are the stuffed easy ones with snug
sides. They are made of walnut
frames and are covered with silk Of
the same color as the wall paper
Few modern homes are burdened
with parlors, but their place has been
taken by small and more attractive
reception rooms. These rooms are
usually not large enough to stand
many pieces, but what are used must
be worth while. If French effects are
wanted the gilded- Louis XIV. and XVI

Even more popular is this French

holstery. II is certainly preferable
for country homes. The set should
include a divan and two chairs, ana
where extreme economy must not be
practiced a small side table and cabI-
net for miniature ornaments should be
added.
Colonial is Comprehensive Term.
Colonial furniture is all the rage at
this moment and the different kinds
make the term a Hnisnomer There Is
the Dutch colonial used by the people
OF Pennsylvania and known by its
round lines and plain ornamentation.
Then there is the English colonial

the plain William and Mary style, in
laid Sheraton. tire more deliberately
carved Chippendaie and the hand
painted Adams furniture. An Adams

Of place in French drawing room.
Where a colonial room is wanted all
the furniture may be Sheraton. This
furniture is made OF satin wood and
not of mahogany. 1t is given more
exquisite tone by the inlaid effects
and is known by the round legs in
stead Of the square or curved ones.
If Sheraton is used the set may IN
Clude a bench with a wooden seat and
inlaid trimmings with two chairs and
table Some of the Sheraton cabI-
nets, especially the taller ones, may be
used for an ornament cabinet or a
music rack.
The selecting of furniture for a Ii
brary or living room is an easy prob
lem because a great variety may be
used in these rooms. Where the
amount to be spent is small the mis-
sion furniture in the oak and other
arts and crafts kinds is effective and
inexpensive The dark brown color
ing blends well with most colors used
in this room, but the new green STAIN
ed effects are tremendously popular
for country homes and bungalows.

This fact, together with the intended beginning of production of large quantities of ore for shipment at the mine of the Superior X Boston company, should result in growth and increased industry in the Copper Hill region and consequent increase in Globes business prosperity.
 The Arizona Commercial Copper com, pany is now advertising for bids for the construction of twelve cottages which will be occupied by employees. The cottages will be located on the hill side just south of the mine's plant. Building will commence about Septem Der l and it is expected that the last cottage will be erected and ready 10 be occupied by the first of December.

The drift has now been run for Sl feet north of the shaft and has been constantly in commercial ore running about two and one-half per cent in copper. The east crosscut is now about forty.two feet long and is the first of series of crosscuts that is to thoroughly ex plore the property in 200-foot squares The vertical shaft is now 325 feet deep and sinking has been stopped while the work of exploration is being carried on.
 In the long sulphide tunnel. which not long ago. was connected with a drift from the shaft for ventilation and other purposes, fully 900 feet of good commercial ore was passed through beginning at distance of 300 feet from the mouth of the tunnel

SUPERIOR & BOSTON

At the Superior & Boston mine de. velopment work is now being done b. "a force of seventy men. Underground operations are in progress in the Me Claw, Limestone and Gardner shafts. The erection and equipping of the new plant is being rushed through and this work will probably be entirely finished by October I, while the bulk of it will be completed by the first of September.
 The large new hoist at the McGaw shaft is set up, and beginning August 10 was in use for a few days. At pres ent, however, the hoist is not running. as new air compressor is being sci up preparatory to faster sinking on the McGaw shaft. which is now down to a depth of 4s0 feet.
 It is probable that the shaft will reach the sixth level by September i5. The erection of the air compressor is now practically finished with the cxoep- tion of making some pipe connections. The building of new boiler house mas just begun and as soon as this is com pleted, work will be commenced on . new engine house. Another building vet to be erected is dry house 10 feet wide by 60 feet long which will be lo- cated just north of the McGaw shaft access to the mine when production be- gins. It is expected that shipment of ore will begin in about two months. Practically the entire plant of the Su- perior & Boston mine will be in opera tion by September l and great impe- tus to the Copper Hill districts should result.
 The McGaw shaft will be put down to depth of LOGO feet and on each lev el, beginning with the sixth, station will be cut. It is probable also that crosscut will be run south from each level to the Great Eastern vein and an other north on each level to cut the Old Dominion ledge. As the Great East ern vein dips toward the McGaw shaft if is expected that it will be cut by q shaft at depth of 1000 feet.
 In the Gardner shaft, drift is be ing run west and crosscutting to the north from this drift is also in prog ress. The drift is now about 750 feet long and is' being run to the Black OK idle vein which it will probably strike in about 200 feet more.

ARIZONA-MICHIGAN

Progress in development at the Ari zona Michigan mine has been some what hastened lately by the striking of ground considerably softer than has formerly been encountered in the sink ing of the shaft. At present no sink ing is going on there and all possible energy is being put into the running of crosscuts northwest and southeast on both sides of the shaft. These cross cuts are being made on the 50O-foot level the point where sinking has been stopped. The one to the northwest of the shaft is now about fifty feet long and the southwest crosscut has been run for a distance of about thirty feet The work is still in diorite but the ground is softer and consequently eas- fer to work in than was that in which the sinking of the shaft was done. Con siderng the fact that all the work IS being done with hand drills the force of nineteen men employed at the Ari- zona Michigan under the direction of Superintendent N. A.

 It is expected that the north west crosscut of the Arizona Michigan will strike vein of ore at a distance of about 250 feet and that the south east crosscut will intersect vein of about 100 feet from the vertical shaft. Later cross-cut will be extended for about HOO feet to further explore the property and it is expected that at that
