CARE IN SELECTING PAPER
General Effect Must Be Considered
Before tho Choice is Made
and Work Begun.

In papering any room 1t should be
remembered that light is the first
consideration. and that the paper
must be chosen accordingly.
Pure white is the best choice when
a specially light room is wanted. as 1t
absorbs only about Is per cent. OF the
light thrown upon 1t. Dark green. on
the other hand, is the greatest con.
sumner of light. absorbing about So
per cent. ...4 y.
Next to white as a light producer
are the soft pastel tints and light
blues, which absorb from 20 to rs per
cent. of the light; then comes orange
at 30 per cent; apple and gray
green's. almost SO per cent, and the
popular brown Is almost as bad as
dark green, as It takes up about 60
to 20 per cent Of the light 1t should
throw out.

Doris, It had long been Gilbert's
habit to take a daily gallop. and It be-
came a regular custom for the four
young people to enjoy a morning ride
together. aslf iH asf IN W "a
Gilbert continued his efforts to touch
the affections of the little cousin. but
at times he almost despaired Of ever
attaining the desire Of his heart,
One morning In early September the
four started on their usua, ride, choos.
ing a beautiful path through the
woods. Doris and Gilbert rode In ad-
vance OF the others, and after canter.
ing for some, distance under the dense
shade Of the massive oaks they slowed
down. q ~ y
Suddenly at the left side OF the
road ahead Of Doris there appeared a
giant hound with a broken chain dan.
Cling from his collar. He was a fierce
looking animal. and his swift and 81.
lent coming had startled them. In.
stantly he made q spring at the neck
OF Doris horse, and the frightened
beast reared backward. Doris was q
good rider and retained her seat. but
as her horses fore feet touched the
ground again the hound made a saw
age leap. and this time fastened his
fangs In the shoulder of the animal.
Gilbert sprang to the ground and
brought down the handle of his heavy
hunting crop with all his strength
upon the hounds head. The crushing
blow dazed the brute, and he looos-
ened his hold Then he made a Zero
cious spring for Gilbert's throat.
"Oh, Gilbert, Gilbert!"
1t was the first time Doris had ever
called his name, and her love spoke
In the cry. 1t seemed to give Gilbert
s~uperhuman strength. for as the
hound leaped he struck 1t again with
the loaded crop square on its massive
head; the blow crushed through into
its brain, and the furious monster
dropped at his feet, lifeless.
1t was a very thankful but very
nerve-shaken party Of four that turned
homeward. The wound which the
hounds teeth had given to Doris
horse was bleeding freely, and the ami
NAL was trembling from shock. Doris
dismounted and Gilbert placed her
upon his own mount. leading her
wounded one. tAl

done had you been nearest, Frank.
And l am sorry, Miss Lorimer, that r
was not in time to save your horse
from all harm, though l think the
wound is only a slight one, and will
