come itV feeling of repugnance to the prince and his father, King Peter hay ing always been held responsible for the murder of King Alexander and Queen Draga. whose deaths removed the obstacles in the way of his own ac- cessiun. while Prince Alexander was blamed primarily for the assassination of the Archduke Francis Ferdinand and the Duchess Of HOhenberg. The princess gallant conduct in the war and the general feeling in England that tho British government was responsible for ulwisely advising the Servian army to resist the invaders and hold out until t.!e allies sent re-enforcements have created a reversion of feeling In his favor.
 The government took pains not to Involve England in any way with the affairs of Servla except as relating to this war. The prince was the guest of Lord Kit hener, and at York House Prince Alexander met Sir Edward Grey, the secretary of foreign affairs, in q party which included the Earl Of Derby and Walter Long, both mem- bers of the government. Sir Edward Grey was likewise present at the din ner given in honor of the prince by Lewis uarcourt on behalf of the gov erument. The Marquis of Crewe, lead or of the government in the house or lords. presided at this dinner The Russian ambassador, the Japanese am bassaior, the Belgian minister, the Portuguese minister, the Marquis of LanSd1wne, Lord Kitchener, Arthur Balcour, Walter RunCiman, Lord Rob ert Cecil. General Sir William Robert son and the lord chancellor were pres ent.
 Sir Edward Grey was also upon the platform at Victoria station when Prime Alexander. accompanied by Prince Albert and Lord Kitchener, ar rived to take the train for the coast and embark for the continent. The foreign secretary of the British gov ernment did not entertain the prince regent of Servia at any official hos pitality. And, although the prince re- gent was accompanied by his prime minister. NJ. Pashitch, they were not receivel or entertained by the British prime u.l4ists,r. Mir. Asquith.

An Expert Tells How to Treat WalIS
 and colors So That Rooms open-
 Ina Into Each Other Give the Idea of
 soaciousness and Harmony.
 The day Is already dawning when instruction In color values and house decoration win be part of tue course of study In every school Then, and then only. will all of us be able to choose tasteful furnishings. resttul walls and harmonious color schemes Even if only few artists be born all of us can be taught the principles of art and how to express It In the home.
 Let us begin with a study Of walls md wall coverings. because they are really the true framework Of the room. They form the background for Hll pictures, ornaments, curtains and hanrincs. Therefore they must be .hosen first. if we are to have rooms that are restful and that also express best their relation to the windows and lighting.
 We can be thankful that the days have almost gone when decorators of- fer us papers with climbing onions and nterlocked rhubarb plants. Gone, in. deed. are most of the medallion wall pauers with their huge twelve Inch re. heating unit We have today selec' ton from wide class of more neutral papers in shades. such as putty, bun. sand, gray, etc. in which the variety is given not by the color. but by the texture. tiny stripe. dot or hecS In the grain of the paper itself
 While these neutral papers are not suitable or necessary in every room, i' should be borne in mind
 That light cOlors make rooms appear larger.
 That rooms opening Into each other should not be papered with tones in violent contrast. but that similar or harmonious tones are best.
 That long, narrOw railways and rooms with northern and eastern exposure are preferably treated with warm light tones.
 That light backgrounds with undecid. ed pattern make the best surface on which to show off pictures. hangingS and other furnishing.
 Low ceilings will appear still lower if the wall space Is broken by frieze plate rail, mOlding or other horizontal line which divides the space. so that it Is best. particularly in our small rented homes or flats. to avoid papers or coverings with a break In the pat tern near the ceiling or halfway down
 Horizontal stripes also make ceilings appear higher and are thus particular ly suited to the small. low ceied room Papers with high gloss anishes, while attractive in bedrooms. are out of place and undlgnlfed for living or dining room or library. Everybody knows but does not always follow the point, that warm, bright colOrs and tones are needed In cool rooms with north or eastern exposure. while those receiving southern and western sun can have their walls treated with the less heat ing colOrS and shades. particularly grays, blues and neutral tiuts. Many fabric coverings for walls ale On the rlarkct In permanent homes they are most desirable because they do not mar. tear or show usage.
