"Art is at best expression. It IS the tkill of handicraft and by this skill you tan best express beautiful ideal"
 From the Japanese we can learn the lesson of restraint, for they have grasped tlore fully than any other people the Idea that one exquisite piece is vastly more effective than forty would Of a lesser nature.
 Every piece which deserves place in your home should be an expression of artistic character and have a definite reason for occupying position of merit.
 Very gradually have we learned the value of side illumination and here and there a lamp. To have mixture of different colored shades which do not blend together Is certainly mistake. Let the shades be of varying tones, with one or two neutral color If all the shades arc covered with the same mate rial. then vary the shapes and color of the lining.
