The dining room should be large
enough TO permit a person TO pass
around the table comfortably. II

ed and ventilated The most essential
pieces of furniture are table Of gen

larged, comfortable chairs and a side
board. II one cares for a sideboard

If the room is large enough and the
purse admits. a cabinet with glass
fronts and sides 10 hold dainty bits OF
china and glassware will brighten up
the dining room more than anything
else. If there be no room for cabi-
net, corner cupboard and some
shelves are an addition. Plate rails
are much liked by some people. but
the plate rail is not used so much now
as formerly. Pictures that suggest
pleasant subjects are always desir-
able. y few ferns and towering plants
add brightness and beauty to the din
ing room. Cut flowers on the table
should be found in the dining room.
