MICE you might have felt distinct
~ prejudice against finishing the
wall of your living room or din
ing room with a coat of oil-mixed paint
Wall paper would have seemed essential
But, paints have changed and taste has
changed.
The fact is that the suites in many Of
the very finest hotels recently built have
their walls finished with flat-toned oil
paint usually in a cream Or gray and
with most decorative schemes nowadays
q plain wall surface is most desirable.
There are many sorts Of water-mixed
paint, too. that are useful in certain
rooms. but should never be used on a
nan. bathroom, kitchen or any room
mat has very much wear. They are
easily water spotted and cannot be
patched up without washing off an
entire wall and painting that wall all
over. Then. too, there is always the
danger of putting the water paint on at
little different consistency so that the
repainted wall would not be of exactly
the shade as the first one. OF course
the advantage Of the oil painted walls is
that they can be wiped off with a damp
cloth to keep them free from dust and
any real mark can be removed with a
little securing, soap and water.
1f'you like more ornate effect than can
be gained by the perfectly plain you may
finish the top Of the walls with a stem
cied design. in contrastin DIOR. For
hall you may like to have a dadc effect
combining darker tone beneath and a
lighter one above.
A nursery OF any room occupied by
children should certainly be finished
with an oil painted wall. Not only is it
so much. easier to keep in condition but
a painted we'll offers no such tempta-
lions for tReddlesone fingf, 8. On .he
painted nursery wall you may make
stenciled design of nursery book figures
or you may have a border CT ,fall paper
cut-outs of these figures. 1t should be
applied with blue because ordinary
paste would not hold over the oil paint
finish. If you like you can shellac over
It to render 1t waterproof.

Conventions of the
Engagement Ring

~ OES good form require that an
| J engaged man present his fances
with a diamond engagement
ring?
This is a question that is often asked
by the young man after he has proposed
marriage to the girl of his choice. And
the answer to the question Isl: Ger
tainly not"
10 be sure. most men in this country
90 present their ffancees with some sort
OF Detfothal ring, and when they can
aHord II, 1t is usually a diamond ring,
simply because diamonds are. associated
IN most girls minds with engagements.
But the young woman ought to be con-
suited as to her choice in the matter.
Many girls nowadaYs-when girls an.
given to having original ideas on so
many suolects-profess a dislike for the
conventional engagement ring, simply
because it is so usual. OF late years
she diamond circlet has been in high
favor and sometimes a. young woman
prefers her favorite stone-an emerald
or ruby or sapphire, or even a pearl or
an opal-either alone or set with dia-
monds to any plain diamond setting in
the world. 1t Is the young woman that
mas TO wear the ring, and the consider
ate young man suits her taste rather
than his own in selecting it.
Lest there might be embarrassment in
purchasing the ring together. a young
man often goes to his jeweler before
hand and selects two or three rings o.
the price that he wishes to pay and then
asks his fancee to select the one she
prefers. Amy considerate. jeweler will
carry on this little transaction without
letting the question of price enter into
the negotiations with the young woman.
The only hard and fast rule there
need be about engagement rings is thar
their value should be proportionate with
the financial position of those who buy
them. A young man with enough MONEY
to do so would be regarded as selfish i,
he did not give his fancee any engage
ment ring. But, on the other hand. 4
