New Colors.

There are two new colors this season in wall papers—apricot and ’’malachite” or “water” green. Both colors are beautiful, but while the apricot is suitable for backgrounds the green can be used only in small quantities. The apricot is the color so frequently seen in old Chinese rugs. The green is a very soft blue green. The word “malachite” describes it as well as it can be described. It Is the color one sees frequently on the crest of a wave. The grays are particularly soft and lovely this year.—Harper’s Bazar.
