COUNTRY HOME NURSERY.
Suggestions For Making the Room a
Delight to the Little Ones.

DGii9nr 10 InS ElILiS SuSS.
In planning a nursery for the subur-
ban home sunlight, and plenty of it, is
the first requisite. A southeast ex-
posture is ideal, if it is to be had, for
children, like plants, need all the sun
light and air possible, and with this
exposure the sun on his daily journey
may peep in at every window and the
best of summer breezes float from this
quarter.
A good hardwood floor, polished, but
not waxed, lest it prove dangerous to
uncertain little feet, should be in this
room The side walls are incest Gov
cred with gray grassclOth; then the
wonderful cut-outs in the farm wall
paper designed for this purpose may
be brought into play. Farmyard
scenes, Mother Goose legends, fairy
stories-all may be used in turn to
change the decorations. The ceiling is
best of paneled wood, so that it is
easily kept clean. The tiles around
the fireplace may be Dutch, in the
Mother Goose or other story-tiles that
were never so fascinating as they are
today.
