Then there are some funny little

Vienna Is given the credit for lighting
the way into this new field Of work.
Ideas came from the peasant art of
Austria and Hungary, and well known
artists were not slow to use this
source Of information. To Professor
Josef Hoffman Of Vienna Is great
credit due for the adaptation Of the
peasant art.
The cut shows Of his fabric de.
signs. consisting Of black leaves on a
white background. The long bell
shaped flowers are In solid brilliant
yellow and Persian orange. These WV
i'd materials combine well with simple
designs In furniture Of the mission type
and the best old Sheraton. Chippen-
dale and Adams examples.
AT first one may 10 like the new
art. but that 1t has come to stay there
is no doubt. 1t Is the outgrowth of
the seeds planted by William Morris.
Curtains and Color.
Silk of q color that harm0nizes with
the room and is Of a light quality
makes a charming finish as side dra
perry on the windows. but Is not essen
tial unless the room is very plain and
hard looking. and the silk should moi
be extended over the window to ex.
clude the light. The old style Of hav
ing the drapery meet across the win.
dow at the top and held back halfway
down by loops is out Of date.
There are excellent designs also In q
thin. silky madras that looks we'll on
the windows. and many other cotton
drapertes that are suitable and will moi
keep out too much light cost a great
deal less than real silk. Bought by the
yard these are far less expensive than
when bought made up in curtain form,
and n the modern and very sensible
fad Is to have the curtains reach only
to the sill Of the window you do not
have to buy very many yards.

POURING OUT
THE WHISKEY
LIES Hopes and It's Opportunities
Run Out With the Poison
That Men Drink

On the sloppy surface of any bar you
might read spelled out he word HOPE.
Carefully and neatly the bartender with
his wei wipes off the bar every min
ute or two-as he looks at you and your
drinking. He is cheerful and pleasant
always. He doesn't tell you what he
KNOWS. When your hand shakes, and
a little of the whiskey is spilled, he
smiles, says it is all right, and wipes it
off. He has simply wiped off a little
spilled whiskey. You have wiped out
little of your remaining hope of sue
cess. You can't take hold Of that bot
tie and be as good man as you were
before. Whiskey is poison and the
whiskey drinker poisons himself.
Worse than that he rJiEons his family.
He browns with h:s own hope, the hope
of his wife, his children, his mother, all
of those that have a right TO depend
upon him. From. Editorial in Chicago

''Our university stands at the head

The will of the people shall be the
