LURE OF THE CIRCUS.
Hold Of the Music and Sawdust Odor
Upon Old Performers.

Upon Oid performers.
Sometimes I think there must be
two distinct varieties OF humanity,
said an old circus man. one OF which
we might call the rovers and the other
the stay at homes. With my own taste
for rowing II was hard for me to un-
derstand that ninety-nine persons in
every hundred are content TO stay In
one place most OF their lives and even
are unhappy If taken out OF IT, but
there are such people. and they are the
vast majority. The rover. who IL one
man or woman in a hundred, likes to
wander and is unhappy II confined to
one place. Probably If II were not for
him there would be no circus. Love
OF the road has strong hold on all
the circus people. from performers TO
canvasmen and drivers. when you
hear the band play you join outr' is
the way they put it themselves. and

ROOMS DECORATED IN BLACK
New Idea Comes From Vienna and
Reflection VIII Show II Has Much
to Recommend 1t

Behold black now as the fashionable
color OF the interior decorator. The
liking for 1t arose in Vienna. where
interior decorating is an art much
thought of. There some of the new
houses. or rooms which have been re-
decorated. show wall papers with black
backgrounds. in which huge. bright
flowers are printed. Carpets. too. are
OF black The idea of this method Of
decorating is, apparently, to make the
room strictly a background for the
furniture and persons in It The
brightly Powered paper. of couse, de-
tracts from this effect, but the sort OF
paper more often used does not have
the bright flowers. 1t shows a black
ground. with gray or misty white
figure.
In a room thus grounded pictures
framed In black are hung. The effect
is startling. The pictures stand out in
reality from their somber surround
ings. White enameled furniture is
looked on with favor for use in black
rooms. Surely such a setting would
give the persons in 1t chance to shine
forth in all the glory OF color lent
them by skin and eyes, hair and
clothes. On the other hand. wouldn't
a room 90 furnished cast depress-
ing spell on the woman who found
herself shut within its four walls for
many hours in day?
There is an outgrowth of this craze
for black which is interesting. espe-
cially to those who live in apartments
or other crowded quarters, where the
kitchen as well as the other rooms of
the house comes under occasional In
spection of guests. This is the black
enamaled Jar or box for cakes, bread
and grocery supplies OF various sorts.
1t is painted brilliantly with big red
roses. and makes an interesting note
of color. Six boxes or jars OF this
sort ranged In orderly array on
shelves give a distinctive note to the
the most uninteresting pantry or
kitchen.
