which convinced them the walls OF

confidential speeches.

haps a stenographer were in lower
room. But for all practical purposes
the wire transported them into the
very presence of those talking to Nc
Manigal. while the grand jury was
not far away in session. This Is the
declaration Of the defense which, OF
course. has no documentary evidence
except Il dangling wire. and a picture

mitted by the state.

What this wire meant to the state

Some New Designs i'm
Wall Paper and Draperie

~ NE may not go far wrong in the
u selection of wall papers OF drap-
~ cries this season even if one %
taste is not Of the best in such matters,
because practically all Of the season q
offerings are conservative in design
and subdued in coloring- The lighter
tones in wall paper are gaining stead
lily In favor, while in draperies the
plain effects with or without dull toned
borders or the soft oriental hues and
patterns are most used.
For the living rooms nothing is bet
tsr than the plain papers Of pinkish
gray-a sort Of putty color-or the
warm tans that harmonize so well with
almost any furnishings. In the selec-
ton of papers it is important to bear
in mind their reflective powers; that Of
dark brown, for instance, is only 13
per cent, while that of orange is so,
the yellow is 40, and of emerald green
again is only Is per cent. One Of the
most attractive papers now being
shown in the palmer effects is what is
called the Tiffany blend. This is a
skillfully shaped paper that comes in
all the desirable tones and has a vague,
cloud-like appearance that many will
prefer to the fiat look of the oatmeal
and cartridge papers.
The metallic papers are also an ar
tistic variation Of two-tone effects In
a room papered in one of these, which
was a subtle blend of bronze and dull
rose, the portieres and window draper
les of rose color served to bring out
the mere suggestion of rose in the pa
per, while softening the metallic treat
ment.
japanese grass cloth continues popu-
lar for the dining room. A new effect
has been produced by certain process
of brushing which separates the hbres

tractive. Chinese designs are employed

more sections. When upholstering takes
the place Of the cane, tapestries OIL
figured velvets in large patterns and
low tones are used, put on plainly and
| finished with large nails This type OF
furniture is especially suitable in pan
eled or wainscotcd dining rooms of a
formal character.
A departure in the treatment of
dining table tops, which is slowly gain.
ing favor, is 10 leave them unfinished
and unstained, They then require no
care but occasional oiling, and in a
year or so take on beautiful, natural
color. For the woman TO whom her
polished table top is matter Of con-
stant worry and frequent re-dressing,
this process will prove grateful.
Willow furniture is of particular in
terest at this season of the year. Not
only is it the ideal summer furniture,
but there is no other inexpensive style
that may be 80 happily used with ma
hogany, cherry or any other rich wood,
green with cushions of material like
the hangings Of a room, add decora-
tive touch that represents small out
lay. When one is not able to buy as
good piece of furniture as one wishes
and comfort demands an extra chair
or table, it is much wiser to invest in
simple piece of unornamented willow
than in any Of the cheap wooden fur
niture.
An article often selected with ap-
parent disregard for the other furnish
ings of room is the footstool Each
year sees greater variety of these
comfortable little luxuries so that one
should be easily able to carry out the
general scheme of the room In even
so apparently slight a matter. Prob
ably the most sensible styles are those
Of old English oak, on mission lines
with dark brown leather coverings.
The dull finish mahogany with dark
green hair cloth or a durable tapestry
upholstery is also desirable. The
high, square style is much liked espe.

canework.
