The Phrase, "The fall of man." and
its accompanying picture Of despair
somehow, has never made the proper
impression on me. Man was alleged
to have fallen from an exalted state
Of perfection, to lowly condition, to
live life OF sin. shame. disease and
death.
1t is true that this is supposed to
have occurred long before the period

and advantages that have come to him.
one must be grateful to a Divinity so
beneficient as to cause these changes
to come about in n natural way. A
way that has enabled the mind of man
to develop with the body.
The length of life Of the average man
has doubled in the last seven hundred
years. The mentality of the average
man has been so immeasurably enrich
ed that no one would speculate in stat
ing how many times richer it is now
than then.
Even in those days however there
were men as rich as the richest today.

NEW HOME HAS
ATMOSPHERE
Of SPAIN
Decorative Units Are Worked
Out in Efficient Manner
by Firm

Spanish interior decoration has
been done perfectly in the recently
completed home OF Mrs. Estelle
Mitchell, at $500 Seventh street
northwest, to harmonic with the
modish Spanish architecture Of the
exterior and to make the dwelling
q harmonious decorative unit.
Textured walls are the background
for the interior decorat onS. These
break up and soften 'he light from
sconces and lamps, giving the rooms
the actual atmosphere Of q Spanish
interior. The furniture, generally,
is Of dark wood with carved details
Chair seats and backs are OF bro
cade. The living-roon1 walls are
joined to the ceiling with a wido
cornice mold ng OF dark wood.
This wall effect was obtained by
the use OF a special plastic paint
that can be worked into any tex
ture, and makes possible both tex
ture and color-tone in one-coat APP
plication. In Mrs. Mitchell's home
this plastic paint was applied over
q base Of GYPSUM plaster.
The Spanish character Of the ex-
terror walls was EXPRESSED with
stucco. Flat surfaces are relieved
by q projecting chimney that rises
above the roof of colored tiles. Win
doWs are cross-paned and suffered
or sheltered by striped awnings. A
pergola shelters the entrance ter
race. To obtain uniformity of tint
and permanence Of color on the ex-
terror a special stucco was used,
one into which mineral color had
been ground at the factory. This
stucco is re enforced with a steel
mesh.
This residence was constructed for
Mrs. Mitchell by w. C. and A. N.
Miller, and the plast paint, stucco,
and plaster were supplied by the
Rosslyn Steel and Cement Company
from the Plasterco, Va, plant Of the
United States Gypsum Company

This is one of the principal func.

out the country and its develop
ment goes hand in hand with the
development of ethics in raising
the standards of real estate prac-

Many times the. intricate and COM

and require some method OF inter

What Tomorrow Means to You
BY MARY BLAKE.

Tomorrow's planetary aspects are
variable. In the morning and until
noon they are favorable. During the
afternoon they becom. adverse. IN
the evening they are benign. The
early part of the day promises success
for the task in hand, while later on
there will be evidenced an urge to be
critical and grouchy. and TO go off at
"half-cock." Forewarned is to be fore
armed, and, if such influences are al
lowed to dominate you, no one will be
to blame but yourself. Once this
period is successfully passed the con.
ditions will merge into state of calm
and tranquility. and there will be no
desire felt to start anything-not even
trouble.
Children born tomorrow are brought
into the world under good auspices.
They will be exempt from any serious
illnesses, provided they receive proper
alimentation and are furnished
wholesome environment. Tempera-
mentally they will be much more In
f1uenced by their surroundings and
external influences than the average
child. They will be very initiative, not
only of what is good, but also Of what
is bad. They will not be deep stu
dents, but will attain a superficiality
of learning which, by the average per-
son, will be accepted as wisdom. They
will love deeply, but not necessarily
wisely.
If tomorrow Is your birthday. you
are inclined to be obstinate, although
you are always trying to persuade
yourself that your StubbornneSS is
will power. You are persevering and
have a very determined character, and
your resoluteneSs sometimes makes
you rather obnoxious, as it seems to
imbue you with an air of assumed
superiority, which onlookerS resent.
Your tenacity Of purpose is conceded
by all who know you and this often
brings you success when faint-heart.
ed endeavor would fail. You are very
loyal as friend and implacable as
an enemy. You are more liked by the
opposite sex than by the members OF
that to which you belong.
Owing to your idiosyncrasies. your
love will have it's ups and downs
largely as the result Of your own ex.
aggerated expectations. On the whole,
however, you will be happy, and, al
though content, never quite satisfied.

THE WIDOWS MIGHT
BY HAZEL DEYO BACHELOR

She mad not expected to tell them
so soon, but impulsively the words
rushed out of her mouth. They might
as well know at once that she had no
intention of going away with the fam
lily. She was Il woman grown and had
n responsible position. 1t was high
time that she asserted herself.
Il meant to tell you before" she
said, trying TO speak carelessly and
not succeeding. I'm making other
plans this Summer"
"Other plans"' Mrs. Carson turned
her usually placid face upon her
daughter.
"Other plans.' gasped Greta, who
was of the clinging variety and never
had an original idea.
Fay nodded.
You're going to visit some friend?"
Fay grasped at the suggestion as a
straw to postpone telling them that
she was going off somewhere alone.

''Oh, but we haven't decided on Cape
Cod" Mrs. Carson said quickly.
There's nothing settled about our
plans"
Fay realized that she must make her
decision final, even though she hated
to hurt her mothers feelings. She
must assert her independence; make
them understand that she intended to
have her own way, no matter what
the opposition.
THE truth of the matter is she

Late Lefty.

The class had been at work for
about five minutes when the door
swung open and Lefty slipped in.
Not that she was abashed at the late
ness of her arrival. She slipped in
lazily. nonchalantly. at peace with
herself and her world. For Lefty was
placid and plump and, the teacher
said. lazy.
This time the teacher frowned. She
gave Lefty long, stern look, silently
entered a note in her book and went
on with her lesson. That afternoon
she called on Letty's mother. II Won

CHAPTER v.
Surprising the Family.

Fay had not as yet completed her
plans for her vacation. Somehow she
dreaded making up her mind definite
ly because then she would be actually
committed to going. 1t was one thing
to dream about her plan and it was
taking a step toward her goal to shop
for her new role, but to know where
she was going, and when, brought the
whole thing too terrifyinSly near. She
must have time to perfect herself in
her part. 1t was actually like study
ing a role in a play.
For one thing, she must invent q
shadowy background of some kind in
case people ask questions. OF course,
they were not apt to do this on such
short acquaintance, but 1t was just as
well to be prepared. In this respect
she could obtain no help. from The
Adventures OF Kitty Carlyle" kitty's
life with her husband had been CLOSED
over lightly, and no one seemed curl
Gus about her past. 1t was her future
that mattered.
Fay put the thought of her dead
husband into the background of her
mind and concentrated on the events
of the present.
The arrival of so many boxes and
bulky parcels at the apartment was of
great interest to the family. Her
mother and her sister Greta wanted
to know why she was buying so many
clothes.
You had several dresses left last

tically. And. beside2 you won't need
