Ono of tine popular brass wood boxes are picturesque. And an old time high-backed settle makes a cosy nook if stood at right angles with the fireplace.
 This is what one little bride did to obtain this settle effect: She went to 9. large department sore and bought an unpainted pine Colonial ironing table" in the kitchenwars department -5he kind that forms a table when four pegs secure the fiat tabletop to the lower part, and which forms a h1gh-baclled settle when the flat ta- ble-top part Is released at one side and swung upward (so that it is held by ony two pegs). Her husband painted this with a brown szain and they used it at the fireplace with a large piece of darlS-green velour draped over the back and seat, and a green cushion at one end.
