The choice Of bedroom furniture
IS SO largely one. of personal taste
that but little can be said that will
help the prospective purchaser. A
scheme OF unusual charm and one
suitable for a country house or SUM-
nler cottage is shown in illustration
No. a.
"A simple set of inexpensive white
enamel furniture was purchased and
made doubly interesting by the ap-
plication of painted or stenciled deco
ration. Each year the painted and
decorated furniture of this cottage
style becomes more popular and if
people in general knew how effective
this furniture may be made, we
would have more painted furniture in
our bedrooms. The decorations may
be stenc;led or painted on freely by
hand. The ordinary oil colors which
come in small tubes are used. The
work is not difficult and many inter-
esting designs may be worked out.
In this room the entire floor is
covered in a soft blue ingram filling.
An attractive stool, which can be
bought for Four Dollars and Fifty
Gents, is COVERED in a lavender
striped lineh. The quaint chair
shown iDthe corner of the ilIustra-
ton can be purchased for Two Dol
lars and Half, and when stained or
painted white, will prove an exceed
ingly attractive and handy bedroom
chair. A bed like the one shown in
white enamel may be purchased in
the three foot three size, or the four
foot six size for Twelve Dollars.
The bureau, which measures forty
inches in length and nineteen inches
in depth, is priced at Fighter Dol
lars.
Probably the greatest mistae e the
average person makes in furnishing
the bedroom is the use of too many
odd and insignificant trihes in the
way of pictures. ornaments and un-
necessary objects of all kinds, which
could easily be dispensed with. |
have seen many bedrooms with the
walls so covered with pictures of all
sizes and descriptions that the gen
eral effect was merely cheap and
tawdry. Two or three well chose.
Pictures are all any bedroom needs
and if placed properly, will aud to
the charm Of the room. Pictures are
usu,lly hung too high. Five feet
from the floor TO the bottom of the
frame, is a good height to hang all
small pictures, also, let me add
word about frames. Let us try, as
FAR as possible, to choose simple
frames and not the cheap, fancy va
riety, which are so often used. We
should give just as much attention
to the proper framing of picture as
70 the selection of the picture itself.
In bedrooms, particularly, let us try
TO keep all the frames alike, and not
have some in oak, some in mahogany
and others in gold.
Many attractive things can be
made from cretonne to brighten up
a dull bedroom. Illustration No. S
shows a set of cretonne covered
waist boxes, cleverly arranged for a

The chiffonier or chest of drawers,
in this case, could either be in ma
hogany or enamel. An upholstered
chair would also look we'll covered in
the same cretonne used at the win-
dows. WI
This is a particularly charming
bedroom scheme and is a good exam
rle of what / call harmonious fur
nishing. The room has interest
Even The quaint pictures and their
arrangement express the individuality
Of the person who chose the furnish
inCs.
Again in illustrations 2 and 3, will
be seen two different schemes where
odd furnishings are uscd.

pieces which match each ether in de-
sign. The white, square tube iron

interest. Here viii be seen the com,

cessful. The striped paper always
lends a very digni6ed and refined at
rlosphere TO the bedroom and is cn-
propriate 10 use with white cnamclc1
furniture, mahogany or any stained
woods.
1t is often matter Of discussion
as to. the proper height TO carry the
wall paper, There is no definite rifle
TO guide us iii this point but few
simple suggestions may help the
reader. If the ceilings are high, it
is often advisable to drop the picture
molding only. In this case, the upper
third and ceiling should be papered
in plain white or cream white. Never
choose a paper of different design
for tile upper third IS The effect viii
be confusing and extremely ugly.
Even in high ceilinged rooms it is IN
perfect good taste to carry the side
wall up the full height.
The use of decorative borders in
bedrooms is again a personal point.
There is no particular argument
against them and many Of the sim
rie designs are quite charming iii
effect If the border is used, the
eidewall should be either a plain
paper or a stripe. In combining the
border paper with 4 figured side
wall, even though il Il designed to
match we obtain the effect Ct too
much decoration in the room The
border paper also r. 1ires plain
hangings.
AS a rule, plain rugs are more.
effective in bedrooms than Orientals.
The bedroom should be fresh and

ured papers for the wall covering. II
hgured paper is our choice, one
should be careful TO select good
pattern which will not become tire
some. The papers which are bold
and striking in color and design
should be avoided as they will be-
come a constant annoyance to the eye
and are never considered in good
taste. An unbreakable rule, which
should be borne in mind in choosing
the figured paper is tie fact that it
demands plain hangings. If the wall
is figured and the curtains as well,
the result is confusing and common
place. On the other hand, the deco
rated fabrics will appear charming
against a plain background.
There are many striped papers
which are classed under the heading
of plain papers which make excellent
wall covering. They can be had in
many soft colors and, OF course, the

PLAN TO SHORTEN ::
.RABABOO RIVER
To the People:

One Of the biggest land improve
ments that has ever been attempted in
Sank or Columbia county is about to
be undertaken, and Judging from the
enthusiasm shown by the properly
owners the project will be carried and
the improvement made. It is a large
drainage project which includes over
$4,000 acres of land and which will
start at the Butterfeld bridge about
midway between Baraboo and Portage
and extend down through the towns
of Fairfield and Caledonia for dis
lance Of tWenty-four miles, the ditch
extending two miles and half of solid
cutting, and extending into the Wis
consin river about four miles south Of
Portage. "a, 49,:
A hearing. will be held before Judge
Fowler, at the court house in Portage
on Wednesday, July 5, says the Port
age Register, for the purpose Of ascer-
tanning the fact and determining
whether the benefit will exceed the
cost of construction and then author
ize the drainage district by the ,ap-
pOintment Of commission to super
wise. the. work. .:. .
That, said proposed work consists
principally in Strengthening and Con
structing new channel for Baraboe
River, cutting off all sharp bends and
deepening said channel and removing
distractions ..therefrom along the
route: above described.
1t is expected that the total cost of
the Improvement will be about $35 ,00a
and if completed would mean a great
Improvement to all the low lands
west of Portage. And what is now
practically worthless it is claimed
will with the proper drainage be made
worth in the neigh5orhood of $685.

property owners OF Caledonia and

Fairfield to take charge Of the project
until the court could take action are
Griffith Williams, D. r. Owen and
Hugh T. Williams. Most Of the land
to be benefited lies within the Dor
ders of Columbia county, hence the
action there. ..
Charles Bender, who owns very
large tract of land along the borders
of the Baraboo river in the town Of
Fairfield is now engaged in draining
and thing about 5000 acres Of his
land and it shows great improve
ment already. Mr.. Bender's home is
in Baraboo and he owns the Reit-
brook farm about seven miles from
Portage which consists of about l.
500 acres of land and he is one of
the enthusiastic property owners for
the improvement. 49,.
4. Plan to Shorten River
According to the surveys made by
H. V. Tenant of Portage, who made
the preliminary survey, the Barabos
river would be Strengthened from the
Butterfield bridge to the Wisconsin
river SO that the course of the river
would then extend over distance of
eleven miles while. under the present
conditions it covers a distance of
twenty-four miles. The deepening of
the channel by dredging, lowering the
river table about two and one-half
feet, it is claimed would eliminate the
food conditions to the greatest ex-
tent, besides the water would reach
the Wisconsin river from the Butter
field bridge in three hours instead
of taking eleven hours under the pres
ent conditions.
Besides the PRACTICAL conditions
which would improve the value of
the farm lands to very great extent,
lit would be possible, with this i'm
provement completed, to run power
boats between Baraboo and Portage,
which is impossible under the river
conditions as they are now. Seventy
five or eighty per cent of the acreage
owners have consented to the inn
provement and have petitioned the
circuit court of Columbia county for
immediate action as they are posi-
