LITTLE CHURCH MOUSE.

Little Miss Mouse lived in q bis
church all alone, but she did not
mind that 8, all She liked IL, for no
one bothered her and never did pussy
cat come near her dwelling
To be- sure there was no cheese or
nice rich crumbs, but there were nc
traps either, and Miss Mouse could run
all over the place day or night and
never feel a bit scared that she would
run into danger
on Sundays Of course she slept
nearly all day and part Of the night
for her bed was near the big pipe
organ and when the loud tones rolled
out little Miss Mouse ran down the
s,crs and along by the wall 10 ial
corner OF the big room and crept under
scat
Sometimes she nibbled at the book:

DOES YOUR HOME-INTERIOR
EXPRESS YOUR INDIVIDUAL

Every week brings me its quota of !
letters asking advice on interior dec
Grafton. please describe a tasteful
living room," say some of these letters,
II do so want my living room to be
restful and beautiful
In reply to such letters, | am always
glad to make suggestions regarding
pieces of furniture which are universally
accepted as having good lines" and
being ''in good taste" (the gate-legged
table, for instance, or the wing
backed freside chair, willow furniture
with harmoniously -colored textiles used
for seat and back-pads, almost any
dale periods, etcetera). But l am al
ways at loss to know how to explain,
to these Letter Friends, that there is a
third principle OF interior decoration
which they have evidently overlooked.
They realize that their home-in-
teriors should be beautiful and rest≪
but they do not grasp the fact that the
home should also reflect the indlvid-
uality of It's occupants.
So, not knowing the talents or pref
erences Of home-maker, how can |
plan a living room for her that is ap
propriate?
Mrs. A, for instance, may be a mu-
sician. Then the most natural thing
in the world for one to find in her
living room is picture OF q great
musician, or a row OF Lives of Famous
Musicians" on the table held together
perhaps, by bronze book-ends OF some
great musician in baS-relief
Mrs B. is fond of travelling and has
been TO the ORIENT What, then, is
more appropriate than Chinese or Japan
nese tapestries, pottery or jade In her
living room?
Mrs. G. is the wife of writer. In
| her living room one expects to hnd
some evidence of the interest in things
literary which her husbands talent
would naturally awaken-pictures of
great writers, their books, book-ends
bearing the face of an author, and me-
mentoes picked up at the birthplace OF
some great author.
Mrs. D. is studying arts and crafts
and samples of her handiwork would
naturally be everywhere; on the table
lies a hand-woven runner OF silk, on
the mantel stands a piece of her own
basketry, and the shade on the drop
light is perhaps one Of parchment or
pierced-metal which she has made.
As | said above, our home-interiors
should reflect ourselves. Let us live
among things that interest us Let us
not buy certain piece of furniture OF
certain ornament because the clerk
in some store recommended it, or be-
cause everybody else has one" Let
us buy it because We like it! Other
wise we are all like sheep, following
some other persons tastes, not oul
own.
AS l once heard q professional in
terror decorator exclaim, For good
ness sake, if q woman has any indi
viduality, why doesn't she let her home
interior proclaim the fact"

ANS who are awaiting refund

There are about 5000 applica-
tions for refunds yet to be consid-
ered, and 1t is expected that 1t will
take ahout two more weeks to get
all the checks out. One reason for
the delay I'm refunding is the desire
