PERIOD FURNITURE
FOR DINING ROOM
William and Mary Designs
With Suitable Draperies
Are Good.

BY Leslie !. King of the Hartley Store
There are many designs favorable
TO the dining room and the good ef
feet depends on the selection OF the
design. This should be governed to
some extent by tho style OF the home
IN which It is to be used and particu.
larry the style and size OF the dining
room.
A period that can be used to very
good advantage is William and Mary
This design lends more points Of inter
est and usefulness combined than any
Of the periods OF which we are famil.
far.
This style Is very attractive from an
architectural stand point and the cab.
met and drawers are very large and
arranged most conveniently. This
style Of furniture necessarily furnishes
yon with most baanr.n ant
color to decorate TO. Its color Is OF a
dark rich brown JaCobean or walnut
brown depending upon the wood chos.
en-, the most popular being the Jaco'
bean. Oak however lends very at
tractive foundation for developing a
most beautiful room.
Rich brown draperies or dull shad'
ed green. bronze or copper color may
be used with pleasing effect, the lat
Ter being In conformity with the date
and origin Of the William and Mary
design.
Many reasons can BIO given for the
use OF furniture with historical asso'
Citations. The William and Mary de.
/ sign of today is copied and is true
to tho original which dates back to
the year 1890. With the accession OF
Mary and her Dutch husband William
Of Orange to tile English throne nat.
tlraiy the Dutch influence prevailed,
and English workmen copied these pat
terms and changed them at the sug'
gstion of their ruler to suit their
own taste gradually developing the new
design known as the William and Ma.
~. Oak and Walnut wood were the
principal materials and the character.
istic features Of the style are: Turn.
ed legs, curved under framing and
arch tops to case or cabinet. The
copies Of today do not entirely favor
the arch tops however.
Bear this remark In mind when fur.
nishing.: Furniture well selected and
well placed finishes, place readily
and without apparent effort Of ar.
rangement. To make your room of

Ing height to your room. Make your
windows wider and higher by using
the box rod placed high enough above

desired widths. From inside the room
this arrangement will add materially

The drug industry owes many of it's
products to the efforts of the American
Indian to combat disease. The Indian
medicine mar had Il plant for every

type unknown to him he promptly
found some new roots or leaves ana
tried them. If the ratiput lived he
named the plant and carved it on the
stone which served as bis pbarmaco-
peia.
A certain medicine man, puzzled by
the strange case of an Indian who
wouldn't eat, went searching through
the rocky woodlands Of New England

That's how Seneca snakeroot came
