Nothing can so produce discord in a room :is over-crowding of furniture. Xo matter how attractively decorated, no matter how good the lines of the furniture, unless thr( is an air of spaciousness and a sense of proper ;rrouping, we mi rht as well bey in all ovr. Too much of even the best r in ruin the entire effect. The sensible thin? to do (and oh, isn't it diilicult, when one s amid seas of attractive bits of furniture) is to select the veriest few pieces, 'have them sent out and try them in (liferent spots until thy fit; then deride what other

Nice fat ones, which used to sit in corners in the library, are dressed up in covers or upholstery of cotton damask bound with braid of a contrasting color. A girl's room done in rose and pale blue might have one of the comfy chairs upholstered in soft rose brocaded damask bound in blue, and for a change might have a careless cushion of apple green silk with lavender cordings and a posy or two. A lamp would be absolutely necessary for this chair, and what could be mor charming than a standard of polychrome wocd having a shade of blue silk trimmed in rose puffing9 and lined for becomingness with lavender? If one has an old walnut set of not too pleasing design there is usually some way to remove or change the objectionable features and make a presentable room with this set for a starter. Hangings

and sld light shades of apricot silk and a rose taupo rug would go far toward making a successful room. If you are needing a new small table and are In doubt, look at the nests of tables which are made up these eiys in numbers of style and which fit in bo many cry places. For the hall, for the game of solitaire, for a place to set one's darning basket, for a plant that needs Bunshine; there are innumerable uses for these conveniences. Many atrocities in the way of golden oak and other erstwhile crazes have been reclaimed and made delightful by the use of a little paint. For instance, a woman of my acquaintance had a lovely walnut bed and a small chair, but the only dresser at her disposal was one of the horrid pocked maple period but which had very frood lines- Necessity proved Inspirational, and this clever woman painted the body of the dresser black and the drawers a soft t'ose which she mixed herself. The ugly holes where the handb . s had been were fitted with Japanese cords which were strung with colored glass beads. Two powderholders of rose pottery and a shal

low- flower bowl were set atop this original pieoe of furniture, Equally good results may be obtained with different colors and a little ingenuity. One has to possess a sense of the visionary and infinite patience, and the results are bound to b satisfactory.

brian blue, mandartn red, butter color and csmeralda green. For the family living room draperies of sun fa st over glass curtains of silk net are in good taste. Drapes of solid color with a valance of blocked linen are seen also, and this combination might happily be used if one had enough of the solid material for sides and wanted to add a new note of color in the furnishings. For a window which frames a view the main idea is of course to make the draperies as attractive as possible and at the same time to frame the view without obliterating it. A valance and narrow side drapes of fipured chintz reaching the sill should frame the window, and the plass curtains of plain net should be adjusted with small rings to a brass rod so they may be pulled back entirely. A treatment for more formal usage which is dignified without giving the impression of stiffness consists of a straight valance of twotoned brocaded silk, with drapes of the same ranging to the floor and finished with scant ruffles.

Living Room Furniture To have a variety of Living Room Furniture such as we show is a real treat to the purchaser. By placing orders months ago enabled us to have this wonderful showing. It is a pleasure to take customers into our tapestry room just to let them look around. Please come in and let us show you.

The Kind of Furniture We Like to Sell

We like to sell the kind of furniture that your children will like to inherit. It is almost inconceivable to us that the "price" furniture, or "Sale" furniture or "speculative" furniture that goes into some homes will be welcomed or even tolerated by the children who will inherit it. But, consider yourselves as well as the children, your friends and visitors consider the pleasure and satisfaction of owning, and showing, and using REAL furniture. Ever been in Heller's? We think you'll like it here. At any rate we'd be glad to have you call, walk through the store and inspect some of the real furniture even if you are not buying. WE ACCEPT BONDS
