fetal flowers are also used to good
advantage in these baskets, as are
autumn leaves, dried flowers, cat-tails
and prettily colored grasses. Arti-
fetal flowers are now recognized as
quite correct for home adornment, and,
indeed, some Of them are so well done
as easily to pass for the real. Pre-
served maiden hair fern is likewise so
natural in appearance that one can
scarcely tell it from the fresh grow
ing plant 1t has proven a boon to the
woman who never has any luck with
flowers and must constantly send her
fernery to the florist to be refilled.
Wicker and basket lamps are among
the new things also, and shades of
bamboo or wicker, silk-lined, with
bases of pottery or bronze. Some very
pretty effects In willow lamps for
summer homes are obtained by lining
the open-work shades with bright flow
cred cretonne. A lamp and shade OF
this kind, in willow painted green, had
a shade lining Of very rich red rose
and dark green leaved cretonne
through which the light wrought beau
tiful effects.
Another idea is the matching Of pat
tern upon the silk or cretonne shade
and pottery or porcelain lamp base
In the decorators window some very

Bric-a-Brac and Art Lamps

pretty effects are displayed In Chinese
vases which have been fitted with cleo
tric light fixtures, and shades Of Chi
nese cretonne, or silk, matching the
pattern Of the vase.
Lamps have grown to be objects OF
art almost within the last two decades,
with the rather general adoption OF
electric light. We have come suddenly
from a time when a really beautiful
lamp was rarity to day Of bewild-
ering variety and beauty In illumi-
naries. Side lighting fixtures and table
lamps are given preference today over
the central overhead fixtures, so long
regarded as essential and inevitable.
This is as It should be, for a light
more nearly on level with the face
is vastly more becoming than over
head illumination, which throws gro
tesque dark shadows upon the face.
Side fixtures are likewise more artis-
tic and more readily adaptable as mo-
tives in the general scheme Of decora-
ton.
Lamps and lighting fixtures are very
carefully designed to blend harmoni-
ously with interiors Of every type and
period. Next to color, light is all i'm
portant In home decoration. and the
choice and placing Of lights should
therefore be most carefully considered.

ing found, it seems, a per-
manent place in popular fancy. Wall
papers nowadays are real dreams of
art, designed by true artists, with the
proper feeling for tone and right ideas
Of decoration.
Every period, cline and decorative
school is ransacked for worthy inspira-
lions and examples, while much that
is distinctly new and original is also
offered.
The use Of paper and draperies
which match. or at least are designed
for use together, is noticeable fea-
ture of present day modes in wall
treatment Panelling is another Of the
distinct characteristics Of fashionable
wall decoration. very narrow borders
being used to outline these panels.
Another dainty arrangement, espe-
cially in bedrooms, is the use Of mar
row borders about the doors, windows,
above the Dashboard and below the
moulding Pale pink, blue and cream
toned papers receive an added touch
of delicacy from these narrow, flow
cred borders, which are often repeated
in the pattern of the cretonne draper
les, or In cretonne borders, applied to
curtains In the plain shades Of rose,
blue or cream to match the walls, or
In plain white to match the ceiling.
dainty idea, where cretonne Is not
desirable, consists in applying a col
ored cretonne border to curtains OF
White net or lace, In this way secur-
ing the contrasting touch so desirable
in all interior decorations, while doing
away with the light obscuring over
curtains. The narrow wall paper bor-
ders and cretonne borders applied to
net are generally cut out around the
edge of the pattern.
Where a scheme of period decora-
tion Is attempted, the wall papers
and draperies are all important fac
tors in carrying it to completion.
When q number Of pictures are to be
hung In a room, plain and unobtru-
sive wall paper should be selected and
fancy effects in applying it tabooed.
Pictures hung upon a panelled wall
must be very carefully arranged, with
| due regard to the panelling.
Plain or striped papers are some
times carried to the ceiling, with a
tiny border at the top, and another
two or three feet below marking the
top of the panels. These borders are
| usually of the wreath or garland de.

N every home the need Of
things purely aesthetic is
felt, and the ideals Of what
K148E is aesthetic expressed in vari-
- GUS ways. Wreaths of hair,
wax and feather flowers, or embroid-
cred notices satisfied these cravings
in many homes OF generation or two
ago. and always the nandicraft Of the
home worker has, to some degree,
supplied this need.
In this day of broader culture and
truer taste we are indeed fortunate
In having at our command 50 many
sources Of artistic delight from which
TO draw. Pretty pieces Of pottery,
well designed, new embroideries, grace
full baskets and art lamps offer innu-
merable charming suggestions for
Frightening the odd hooks and corners
Of the home.
Pottery, indeed, even the most mex
pensive, may be highly artistic and
possessed Of great decorative value.
The cultivation Of taste along this
line will enable one to select things
good In contour and color, even though
low In price. Some rather heavy jap
anese pieces Of dull, grayish stone
ware, with q merely indicated decora-
ton Of green branches and white now-
Cs, were recently offered at prices
ranging from fifteen to thirty-f1ve
cents In g certain store, and yet they
were decidedly harmonious and taste
full, satisfying even the most artistic
eye.
japanese and Chinese blue, In his
toric patterns ON vases and jardinieres,
can often be procured at q very low
figure, and yet the decoration Is tx
piece OF old Hawthorne In an art mu-
scum or palace. for which sum OF
from I'VE to ten thousand dollars has
been expended, the great age OF the
latter piece, rather than its superior
beauty, accounting for the price.
Among American potteries there are
many lovely pieces in dull, pale,
opaque glazed effects which, though
higher In price. than Oriental wares,
are yet far from being unattainable
treasures.
Brown baskets have recently sprung
into favor for decorative uses. As
center pieces upon tables, receptacles
for bright colored fruit, or for ferns,
these rich, brown-toned wicker works
OF woven willow or split bamboo are
simply irresistible. Very handsome
baskets may be procured at from one
to five dollars, flied with moss and
preserved ferns they AFFORD very arts

between Mrs. Hadlock and Mr.. German
began about six years ago, when the de-
PENDANT promised to train Mrs. Hadlock's
son for . stage career. Since that time,
she alleges, scores of letters OF most
loving character have passed between the
two. She also claims to have advanced
Mr.. German in the neigh borhood OF &c.
900.

whom, Mrs. Hadlock says, Mr.. German is
attentive, IL said to be the real cause Of the
filing OF the suit. It 10 Understood that
