There is one feature about a house
that has a very strong and potent In
1uence on our daily lives. factor that
we seldom think Of. 1t Is the wall
decorations Of the house. You may
not realize 1t. but the colors and tints
on your walls not only have an artls-
tic effect, but they have something
to do with your moods.
A good many people have goneinto the
why's and wherefores Of this fact, dug
into mysterious sciences, and told us
lie looked up In the dictionary; but
that is not necessary. There are very
few things that cannot be told simply
and plainly without impressing on the
nearer or reader that the writer or
speaker has been to college.
We will spend weeks and weeks
planning our house, lay awake nights
over 1t, and probably have harsh
words with our wife over the number
of closets and where the pantry shall
be placed flor as a rule the wife only
cares about the closet room and the
pantry. The men folks can have
everything else as they want it, except
the parlor, dining room. kitchen, hall.
bedrooms, and the bathroom. That is
all she cares to arrange. except the
size of the porch. Everything else
We can have our way about.
Then. when it comes to decorating
the wall, we defer to her and let her
have her way. too. That is kind.
Maybe the parlor will be green. the
dining room red. the kitchen walls
will be apple-green. and one bedroom
will be blue. Another bedroom will
be bun, and a third one will be pink.
Or we will leave 1t all to the deco
rator or paper hanger, and let him
choose the CONF ination.
Then we are living in paper
hangers house not in one Of our own
choice.
