OPEN FIREPLACE POPULAR

Open fireplaces have become SO pop
ular and are being used so generally
in all the rooms of the home nova
days that the demand for andirons has
increased accordingly. Suitable and
irons are not always easy to find, and
frequently we see beautiful fireplace
spoiled because it has been supplied
with andirons out of proportion and
of an altogether inappropriate style.
Sometimes to luxurious big living
room fireplace is given a pair of dear
little old-time irons which would do
exactly for a cozy little bedroom, while
small fireplaces are furnished with
huge, heavy, modern brass andirons
Authorities on the subject tell us that
brass is suitable for the formal rooms,
while the simpler apartments should
have iron, tipped with brass knobs
says a writer in the New York Tri-
bune. In a spacious hall, where the
fireplace is correspondingly large, the
hearth looks we'll if a heavy wrought
iron grill, with tail andironS to match,
is used.
For rooms done in a quaint old-time
style of furnishing some of the repro
ductions of the Hessian designs of and
irons, painted in Colors, are rather
good. One also sees occasionally and
irons of brass and copper in italian
designs-sea horses or caricatures of
men and beasts. In roaming through
the shops one is fascinated with the
assortment of fireplace furnishings. A
complete set included a fine old brass
fender with claw feet, pair of steeple
topped andirons, shovel, tongs and the
heavy rings to hold them to the jamb
of the fireplace. These would fit well
into a modern colonial house.

HERALD SUNDAY MAGAZINE
HANDY ARTICLES

If anyone would tell you that you
could invest five dollars and save five
hundred thereby you would laugh at
his get-rich-q quick scheme. Yet in al
most every home today thousands of
dollars worth of time and worry and
delay and unhappiness might be saved
if one would stock up in few little
conVenienceS.
First of ALL invest a dollar in wrap
ping paper Of different sorts and also
in paper bags of various sizes. 1t is
all well to smooth out the paper that
comes around store packages, but have
you never noticed that when you want
to wrap parcel you never can find a
piece of that carefully saved paper
which is the proper size and weight?
If you want a piece of tissue paper
you have to scurry all over the house
and at last steal a piece from one of
your hat boxes in all probability. Why
not buy some tissue paper and some
medium weight wrapping paper and
some heavyweight wrapping paper?
You can get great supply OF all three
for a dollar, and you will have the sat-
isfaction of always having fresh paper
of the right sort at hand when you
need it. And your impromptu packages
won't have such a dilapidated, weary
appearance.
And after the paper buy two balls of
string. One ball of lightweight white
string and the other of the stout,
strong, grayish cord with which big
packages are tied. You won't need to
spend precious minutes untangling odd
lengths OF string and winding them on
a ball. They always are too short or
too long when you go to use them. Buy
two whole balls of string and have
comfortable time. 1t pays.
