The Richmond palladium and sun-telegram. [volume] (Richmond, Ind.) 1907-1939, 1916-12-04

~ NE time I was invited to take
afternoon tea with a woman who
- had five children. When a mother
of five children finds time to invite
people to tea, you may rest assured
there is reason: / wondered about
this, and about the mothers interest
ing conversation when l had met her
several times at the house of a friend.
She probably had money for COVER
nesses and nurse maids, l thought
and yet somehow she didn't seem like
that kind of woman. She seemed
as though she would be the sort to
take deep personal interest in her
children. 1 wondered about it as I
clad myself in my best bib and tucker.
I wondered still more about it as
my hostess ushered me into an at
tractive and orderly living room, and
we sat and talked as though she had
not care in the world. There wasn't
even a sound of a child in the house.
Presently l asked her If her children
were not at home-"Oh, yes" she
said, they are upstairs" And then
l said they must be very good children
to stay upstairs, and be so quiet, all
at the same time-"Oh," said my
hostess, they like it! And they are
really not SO quiet-we just don't hear
them. You see, 1 have a nice big play
room for them at the top of the house.
l have it furnished with furniture that
they love, and they have quantities of

be necessary to first take a paper pat
tern of one of the heXagonal sections
adding an allowance of at least !:
quarter of an inch all around 70
seams. The six sections should theI
be adjusted to the frame inside on

on the machine along the basted lines
In the case of this lamp-shade tn
seams were turned on to the RICH
side, since without a lining it was nee
essary for the wrong side to be quit
neat. After stitching, the seam
should be opened and pressed fat
then readjusted to the wire frame ans
sewed to it top and bottom, afte
which the braid is sewed on. TIL
seams, you see, will be hidden on the
right side by this braid trimming.

imaged. New lamps would have sim

In your own little living room, when
it is necessary to use an oil lamp, do
not be tempted to use an ornate one;
the pretentious oil lamps are in very
bad taste. We have the makers to
blame for this, but since there is so
little necessity to provide for oil burn
ing, they do not deem it worth while
to provide artistically for the few de-
mands for this sort of a lamp. The
only kind of oil lamp I advise is a
modern make of the good old-fash-
Toned kind which was used before the
fancy ones came in; it is known for
its wonderful burner, and it's lack of
ostentation, since it is made in plain
nickel, shiny or dull brass. And
like best of all, the plain white or
yellow ribbed shade. These lamps
cost, including the shade, about two
dollars. Where a bit of color is very
much desired, perfectly plain silk
shade could be considered for a lamp
of this kind, but it must be sufficiently
large to avoid the danger Of fire, and
yet not so large that it will make the
lamp look top-heavy.

Gas lighting also presents artistic
difficulties, since the gas lamps are
SO often quite hideous. Nobody really
wants one Of those brass and art glass
affairs but what are they to do when
that is the only gas lamp they can
find in their shop? But even this has
a solution when you are told that there
is a certain wooden candlestick- base
lamp which comes fitted for gas. 1t
is encouraging even to know that such
thing is to be had, for if your dealer
does not carry them, you may either
seek elsewhere, or send away for a
lamp of this kind It is fitted with
mantle, tube, and glass chimney, and
it calls for large silk shade, like that
shown on the mahogany-bas lamp in
the picture.
The other lamps shown here are
Of wood also, but these are electric
lamps. A very modern note is sound
ed in their gilded bases, which is a
beautiful finish.
The lamp silhouette has changed
materially since the old days of OIL
and l think a lamp has as much to do
with the appearance of a room as a
hat has to do with fetching costume.
