Dark Walls Restful

An unusual and individual living
room is one with dark walls. Tran
guilty and restfulness is the effect
produced. If this type of room
appeals to you, paint the walls cocoa
brown and hang yellow taffeta cur
tainS from gilt rods. Cover a sofa
and twin flreside chairs with a
brown and chartreuse figured chintz.
Have a permanent game group con-
sisting of round, mahogany table
and four chairs upholstered in yel-
low leather. If you want to have
two more matching chairs made at
the same time, they can probably
find use at a desk and small piano.

Dorothy Dix Says
Breakfast Is Most Important
Meal in Every Household

breakfast is a scrappy meal you can
just let yourself go and do and say
what you please? You can sidestep
all the formalities. You don't have
to dress up to gulp down a little
orange juice as you would to sip
a glass of champagne. so you can
wear a slouchy house dress and
not bother to wash off the cold
cream and take out your curriers'.
Also. you feel that no one is called
on to be brilliant or even pleasant
at 8 am, so you don't have to make
any effort TO be agreeable at break
fast.
But here is where both men and
women make a fatal mistake, for.
in reality, it is the most important
meal of all, because it makes the
picture that both. husbands and
wives have before their eyes the
whole day long. 1t drives home the
memory that they carry subcon-
sciously in their minds. no matter
what else they are doing.
If they have a quarrel at break
fast that ends with the husband
banging the door behind him and
leaving his wife in tears, under
meath all of his other thoughts, no
matter how hard he tries to con-
centrate on his job, is running the
bitter memory of his wife's anger
against him and the unjust things
she said to him.
And while the woman is doing
her housework, her marketing, get
ting the baby to sleep, she is BROOD
ing over the brutal things her hus-
band said to her at breakfast, and
thinking that marriage is a failure
and wishing she was single again,
More divorces start at the break
fast table than anywhere else, which
Is a tip hand to wives who have
husbands they wish to keep.

and your architect are best
equipped to answer all these Ques-
tions. Briefly, steam may give the
most heat with the smallest space
devoted to pipes and radiators. Hot
water takes larger radiators and
larger pipes, though there is a one
pipe hot water system for small
houses Warm air systems do not
need pipes or radiators as the air
is carried in ducts. However, If
fans. humidifiers and such are used,
the cost comes to about the same.
The type of furnace best for you
might be selected on the basis of
the fuel that is easiest TO deliver and
cheapest in your vicinity.

DEAR MISS NOVEL;:

Our house needs reshingling and
we wish to get blend of several
colors so that the whole top of the
house will not be red, or green, or
blue, for it is set into the side of a
hill and most of the roof is visible
in approaching it. If it is possible
to get this effect, how would we
go about it?
MR.. G. H.
Answer:
Manufacturers have met this de-
mand by carrying shingles in what
are called standard blends" This
means that shingles ordered by
blend" number have predetermined
amounts of certain colors to each
bundle, which give a nice variation
in color if the supervision is such
that the colors do not become
punched in one place as they are
being laid. When you get in touch
with your dealer, ask him what he
can offer you in various color blends.

remove it all. it may be Sanded out
also with great care. If you possess
a table as nice as this it would be
wise to take it to a good refnisher
who will know just how to help you.
The top of the table will have to be
refiniShed to remove the ink and
it certainly deserves the best atten-
ton after all these years. 1t is too
delicate a job to be undertaken at

experience.
DEAR MISS NOVEL;:
1 have a Persian rug in my living
room with shades of blue, some
turquoise, plum color and coral on
a cIeam ground. The walls are
cream with faint coral tinge and
the draperies are coral color. The
sofa and two large chairs are COW
cred in plum color The hall and
stair, visible from the living room,
are carpeted in blue. How can l
pull the two color schemes to-
gether? The living room needs
something, but I cannot decide just
what. I am planning on two side
chairs. What colors shall I use for
them?
MRS. T. z. S.
Answer:
Your living room is very warm
and rosy" with all that coral and
plum color You might use few
of the other colors found in your
rug and work into the blues and
turquoise to balance it a little. If
you repeat the blues of your carpet
in one of the chairs just inside the
living room, and use bit of coral
and plum in the hall in pictures or
accessories. you will find it all
belongs" I would suggest striped
material for the two side chairs,
using the turquoise color of the rug
with a small stripe of plum and
coral or something close to that
combination. Repeat the blue in
small accessories and the turquoise
in pictures or somewhere on the
wall to accent the two little chairs.
Let me hear from you again if this
does not help the situation.
