New Cushions.

In one of the newer hotels of New
York city there is a reception room
furnished in old blue. Some of the
chairs of white are fitted with remov'
able fiat cushions, made without an
upright strip-just fiat padded envel-
ope-like cushions. They are of blue,
of course. They are held to the backs
of the chairs by blue silk tasseled
cords. The effect is pleasing and
can be copied by the woman who is
fitting up wicker chairs for summer
service. Cotton cord of an appropri-
ate color can be bought by the yard,
cut into proper lengths and finished
with two-toned cotton tassels.

BRASS ORNAMENTS THE RAGE
Seemingly Cannot BE Too Much Of
Such characterization in the Mod
ern Homes Of the Wealthy.

So strong an allure have brasses
that it is small wonder that more and
more are they to be found in homes
Of every degree of prosperity. Any
woman who can afford to is certain to
keep her choicest blankets in a brass
bound cedar chest. These boxes are
roomy affairs, and the amount OF stuff
which they hold is amazing. No IL
brary or living room is complete with
out a four-sectioned, revolving book
rack of plain hammered or filigree
brass, no entrance hall as it should
be without its censor of hand-wrought
Damascus brass, and no upper hall
properly equipped lacking an incense
burner of the same metal. For the
desk there are tiny clocks having two
inch dials, very clearly numbered;
calendar frames, round and oblong
pin and pen trays, memorandum pads
and bottles of liquids of hammered or
etched brass, and for the dining room
there are sconces, candelabra, candle
sticks, coffee services, loving cups and
finger bowls of the beaten metal.
Brass and copper combined comes in
various useful articles of most at
tractive appearance. A very handsome
type of fern dish is of brass in basket
woven style, with copper-bound sides,
and another is of brass, bound and
adorned with copper spikes. Most fas-
cinating are the chatting dishes of cop
per and with brass handles and stand
ards and the shiny little copper tea
kettles surrounding brass lamps for
alcohol.
