Have you ever noticed how somber
and dull some rooms are when the
color scheme is brown, while others,
also done in brown tones, are so de-
lightful? Every color has three quail
ties, value, hue and intensity, and the
right proportioning of these qualities
makes the success or failure of any
decorative scheme. The ordinary buyer
of wall paper knows very little about
the proportions which must be esti-
mated in coloring. but If the paper is
selected from the splendid assortment
shown at the A. B. Tack Wall Paper
Shop, 1916 North Third street, one
may be sure that color values will be
proportioned with absolute accurate

VALUABLE STATE
ATLAS COMPLETED
Secretary Houck Finishes a Work
That Will Be Much Sought
For in Pennsylvania

Under authority of an act of AS
sembly approved June 13, 1907, the De-
partment OF Internal Affairs has been
engaged in making warrantee tract
maps of several counties of the Com
monwealth, and has just received from
the photographers the printed copies of
the atlas of Allegheny county, by
townships. All the lines of the town
ships, cities and boroughs are given,
showing their relative locations, with
the original tracts on which they are
situated. Next are given such data in
of warrant, survey and patent, to whom
patented, with volume and page of
Patent Book where the patent is re-
corded. To secure this informa ton re-
Quired much search work anon" the
old records of the Land Office and to
collate and bring together these many
irregular shaped drafts, in connected
form as shown in this atlas, required
the best Skill and practical knowledge
of the experienced surveyors of the de-
partment and the unsurpassed handi-
work of the expert darftsmen of the
Land Office Bureau.
Allegheny county, as it now exists,
was erected September "a 1888, out of
parts of Westmoreland and Washing
ton counties. Many of the warrants
were taken out before that date, and
consequently are of record in those
counties. Also many other warrants
were issued when this territory was a
part either of Bedford or Cumberland,
showing the many avenues from
whence came the data now consolidat-
ed in the pages of this atlas.
One copy of this atlas has been de-
posted in the commissioners office and
one copy in the office of the recorder
of deeds in Pittsburgh, which may be
consulted at any time by those inter
ested in the land titles of Allegheny
county. Two copies are also on file in
the State Library, where those inter-
estcd in titles or historical data may
have free access to them. Copies will
always be found for public Inspection
and consultation in the Land Office Bu-
reau, of the Department of Internal
Affairs. Two copies, as required by the
act, will be sent to the Librarian of
Congress, at Washington.
The entire edition of 200 copies, eX-
cept those above referred to, are di-
rected to be sold to such persons as
may desire them at the cost OF publica-
ton
These maps furnish Data useful not
cnly to those who make ii their busi-
ness to abstract and guarantee titles to
real estate, but thev also contain much
OF historical and biographical informa-
tion.
The atlas reflects great credit upon
the Secretary of Internal Affairs and
his employees, who by their skill and
! worlIma nship have contributed of their
talents to bring this commendable and
useful work to such successful con-
clusiOn.

Being tied to woman's apron
strings would be less of disgrace and
more of pleasure If the apron strings
belonged to one of the dainty little
affairs of white lawn and lace shown
at the Womans Exchange, Third
street at Herr. So delightful and at
tractive are the styles and so fine the
materials that these aprons make most
charming gifts and the prices range
from 25 cents to $1.25. Some are
quantity cut in fanciful designs. some
very practical in size and shape, but
all yield to the truly feminine yearning
for prettiness, and If it is only a fetch
ing little bow of ribbon, pink, or blue,
in the corner. there is some touch that
makes 1t appeal to the giver of dainty
gifts.

WEDNESDAY CLUB IN
A GENERAL CONCERT
Christmas Numbers Comprise Pro-
gram; Appreciation of
Working Musicale

The Wednesday Club will give one
Thursday evening. December II, in
Fahnestock Hall, at SIS o'clock.
The program will be given by the
club members and will consist of selec-
tions appropriate to the Christmas
season.
Each member may bring a guest to
the concert. This is an innovation, as
heretofore only to the closing concert
of the season were guests invited.
Fine Working Musicale
The Wednesday Club never had a
more ut-of-the-ordinary and interest
ing program than the one given at it's
recent working musicale. The subject
for the morning was Music of the
North American Indian" and it's in
huence. upon American composers.
The aboriginal songs in their. native
simplicity have been transcribed by
Natalie Curtis. Cadman and Troyer
with harmonized piano accompani-
ments that furnish the necessary back
ground of sound. at times initiating
the roll of the drums, the plaintive
notes of the lovers flute, the piercing
Gail VI Tie edSIe-DOne whistle In6
rattle used by the medicine man."
The Indians whole life is epitomized
in his songs and dances. Work, play
and ceremony, each has It's own vocal
and instrumental expression. Loomis
in his Lyrics of the Red Men" has
woven into one of these compositions
for the piano the melody which is
sung when the calumet, the peace
pipe, is dedicated, the pipe which,
when offered and smoked. seals the
bond of friendship. In another is
heard the prayer to Wakonda, the
thunder god. Then there is the tune
which is sung in derision of the chat
tering squaw. Its inharmonious con-
secutive fourths and fifths and its
jumble of melodies sung by different
voices regardless of time and unison
of pitch typifies vividly the garrulous
woman.
The Tyrolese yodel has a mate in
the motion songs of the Indian maiden
as she grinds the corn for her tribe.
The papooses of the Zuni tribe are
sung to sleep with the tenderest lul-
laby. while in marked contrast is the
tragic music of the "Ghost Dance"
This has been arranged for violin by
Carlos Troyer and it portrays in mu-
sical color the crouching dance of the
naked painted savage. round and in
and out among the flaming bonfires,
while he endeavors to call the spirit
of his beloved back to earth to join
him in this commemorative fire dance.
The day has its Sunrise Call" when
every man, woman and child of a
Pueblo village hastens to n nearby
plateau and with uplifted hands greets
and thanks the life-giving Mother.
The great warriors deeds are re-
membered in song and story and the
greatest of them all has been immor-
talized by Arthur Farwell in "Ichi-
busshi." Ichibusshi. he who was slow
to answer the war drum, but whose
prowess in battle was talked of by
children of the fourth and fifth gem
Grafton.
No program could be complete with
out Cadman's exquisite Indian songs;
the song of the captive maid homesick
for the land of the sky-blue water"
Far off / Hear a Lovers Flute"
THE White Dawn is Stealing" and
THE Moon Drops Low" that noble
sorrow for the passing of the red
mans glory.
