LAMPS and Windows.

In an attractively decorated living
room, furnished by a young bride, the
lamps are placed in an interesting way.
The room has windows galore. The
lamps are all placed near the windows.
This makes the lights at night come
from the same direction as the lights
in the daytime. And, of course. it gives
the room a certain advantage over
rooms where one system OF lights is in
force in the day and another at night.
You know. yourself, that you must fur
nish a room for both daytime and even
ing effect You must hang the pictures
with a view to the light the lamps will
throw on them and a view to the light
the windows will throw on them. You
must arrange other things in the room
with the same double arrangement in
mind. but if you have the lamps in
the same general directions as the win
dows you have always about the same
lighting values.
OF course. in many houses there must
be good lamps on tables in the middle

Flowers for the Table.

A certain woman makes it her spe-
clal pride and pleasure to have flow
ers from early April until frost-and
sometimes after frost-from her own
tiny garden. She has it, in the first
place, well stocked with bulbs. Early
in April the blue scillas open. They
are charming on the table, and they
are used until the first of the ,!aEodi1s
open. These. by planting the diff
ferent kinds, she has blooming for
almost a month. By the time they
are gone the poets ,narcissus is flow
ering. and there is little patch of
wood violets in bloom.
Next come the tulips. some flower
ing shrubs, and then the lilecs, and
after that there are iris. These last
for month more. and by the time
they are gone. and long before it,
many of the perennials are in hlcs-
som-painted daisies and California
primrose. columbines and larkspur.
And then come the midsummer stand :
bys-phlox and bee balm and coreop-
sis. And in the meantime, when she
has taken up the spring bulbs. she
has planted ANIMALS. She buys plants
to save the space needed for sewing
them. So from the end of June on
she has always lot of ANIMALS to
draw on-nasturtiums and pinks and
zinnias and marigolds and California
poppies and half a dozen other thiays.

Opaque fabrics of the kind that would
be impossible if used in the old metn-
!. od One, for instance, could not look
with kindness upon a gayly printed
calico with a red background made up
as shirt waist that ended at the
skirt belt, but as an outside blouse,
short tunic that has all the 1mpor-
calico, or any of its companions IN
printed cotton leaps to hand as an ao-
mirable choice.
Well Chosen for Sports.
This type of tunic blouse has it's
merits along with it's novelty Ine

inventive woman realized their at
tractiveness as soon as the weather
permitted the wearing of light sklrts

such as unbleached muslin. jersey,
pique, cotton duck and plain linen.
They fit in with these skirts nicely,
whereas they would not look well
with garments of serge. Woolen or
satin. The use of unbleached muslin
is not new, but it has grown in favor
since it started it's career the first
of April. The skirts of it are severe

The superiority of the cotton blouse.

no assistance from the skirt to give
Sayety to the costume. and it washes
as well as while blouse. 1t does not
need the expense of cleaner.
one likes to see the gayly printed
cottons come into their own again
and one is astonished at the faith
fulness to the ancient designs which
queen EiiZabeth's commercialists
found for her in Calicut, India. There

are rolled out by the cotton mills

wear them.
It is just possible that this new
tunic blouse. invented by a woman
and not by a shop. is trif1e better
on the average woman than a whole

color. 1t is heightened by contrast
with the cream or white skirt.
