The person who is a collector may find that his pleces contribute to the decorative or the practical side of fur- nishings, or they may be the sort that require to be handled with the utmost skill not to interfere with the attractive- ness of rooms. The zeal for collecting follows individual interest and cannot | be curbed by the thought of housing ar the collecting spirit is broken. It is im- portant for the homemaker to realize the limitations of a collection or its helpfulness in plans for decoration. She can count herself fortunate if her collections and those of other members of a family are helpful. Rugs and furniture are two of the best sorts of collections from the home decorator’s point of view. These fulfill a double part perfectly. Floors are made more beautiful and rooms more attractive when each article is thus carefully bought. Such buying is not always costly either. Individual pieces are sought and these can be substituted for inferior pieces which can be rele- gated to other rooms until gradually a house s furnished with choice pieces of furniture or handsome rugs withcut ex- travagant outlay. It is for the collector to watch oppor- tunities to get what he seeks at lowest prices. 1f the purse is limited, he er she is sure to pick up interesting pieces without paying high sums for them.

EBS| ofi. |/ THDAR, COLLECTOR'S gets “rare bargains” which he or she rejoices in. Among the smaller articles that tempt collectors are pewter, baskets, pitchers, ceramics, books, stamps, coins, shells, glass, etc. Of the number enumerated three only | canont contribute to decorative schemes, namely stamps, coins and shells. The stamps are apt to be held in books, so they can easily be disposed of from the decorator’s point of view. Coins and shells are not so manage- able. Cases are required. These have to be so placed that they suit a room or are quelled.so that they are not over conspicuous. A man’s den and a library are the places for such collections. Sometimes the space at the head of a front stairway can be used for cases admirably. If a house is large enough an entire room may be devoted to a col- lection. This is quite to the collector's taste and inclination and the home- maker’s also! Objects d'art, together with old silver, real lace, etc., are among the most cost- ly of collections, some of which lend themselves delightfully to interior deco- ration. Paintings and pictures are essential to decorative schemes in some rooms of a house. They should be col- lected with great care for their place is conspicuous-and a_homemaker's taste in these cannot be hidden. A few good pictures add more to the pleasing char- acter of a room than numberless in- ferior ones. (Oopyright, 1929, by The Bell Syndicate, Inc.) . Persian poet. . An old Arab gold coin, .

Must I sacrifice my happiness for fear of being ‘She s Answer: I should say not. A man like that will make his own social position, and the chances are that he will lift you up instead of pulling you down. Family trees are undeniably ornamental and useful for dodos to roost in, but don't forget they are dead wood and mighty apt to give way under the weight of those who hang on to them for support. For my part T would a million times rather marry an up-and-coming young man who is doing things for himself than one who depends for his prestige on the things that his ancestors have done. It is all very well to have had a famous grandfather, but it is a lot better to be making a name for yourself that your grandchildren will be proud of. In reality no people in the world are more pathetic than the down-and- outers vo sit in their shabby homes and tell you of the splendor and lavishness in which their families d to live, or those futile folk who have so little stamina y cannot even hold down a good job, but who boast s of some relative who has been dead 100 years. It is well enough to consider the family you are marrying into and the sort of heredity you are going to give your children, but it is far more important that your husband’s blood should be Ted than it is for it to be blue, and it matters more that he should have a record of clean living and honest dealing and of being a go-getter than it does for him to be in the social register. ! As a matter of fact, little stress is to be put on social position in these times and in this country, when the wheel of fortune turns so swiftly that those who were up today are often down tomorrow and those who were in the depths are on the pinnacles. Nearly all the men and women in this country who are running things, from the President of the United States to the president of the country club, came from poor and humble families. Nearly every millionaire began life as an ofiice boy or a newsboy or a barefoot farmer boy or a boy who Nine-tenths of the women who live in palaces and dress soup meat with the butcher when they were first married.

The ble with most wives is that they are not learning anything new. They ¥ revert to the timeworn phrase: “If only T had done so and so,” whereas hould have learned the latest phrase, which is: “I shall do so and 8o.” brings misery, so why not be educated? You don't see women who e sted in current events, music, drama, business, politics, community affairs, etc., degenerating into bored, whining wives, do you? M. Answer: You do not. The woman who whines is the weakling who is too big a coward to fight life and too poor a sport to accept the conditions that fatc hands her. She wants things, but she hasn’t the energy and initiative to go out and get them for her: and she cxcuses her inertness by pitying herself and aying the blame fol thing that goes wrong on others. All of us know whining wives that we dodge when we can, becuse we know that they ar ng to pour a tale of woe into our ears about their husbands’ .

She remedies the situation if she can and if she can’t she accepts- it philosophically. Moreover, if she has a hundred interests in_the outside world she does not become self-centered and spend her time in dwelling on her own little grievances and disappointments. She has a broader outlook than the purely personal.

We hear so much talk about morons and complexes these days that we wonder whether the psycholo- gists are not full of that since-war stuff. Why must we have such fancy names for nuts and cranks? These psychoanalysts make such a fuss about wuzzy people that one al- most wishes one could have some sort of mental twist. It must be fine to have science pay so much attention to one’s brains and adenoids. But it's really the same people who need attention, and it's the usual sort of bughouse that needs the Spring house cleaning. Our asylums are crowd- ed with inmates and the waiting list is long, since there are so many people who are crazy to get in. But there are many more such folks on the outside. I'm not referring to the women who haunt bargain sales or the men who fill the bleachers at the base ball parks. No, I'm thinking of the sensible people who are on their way to the bughouse of money. I know that it's all right, but not very comfortable, to have some of the ma- zuma down in your stocking, especially if you're a little slim there, but that isn't money madness. That doesn't urge you to buy watered stock in Wall Street or watered lots in Florida. It isn't the women of today who are bughouse about money. When a wom- an makes a little she spends it and has something to show for her money. It's the men who are making the Golden Calf. do the song and dance, for men are just dafly about money. Then there is “efficiency.” Machines were invented to save human labor, but sometimes the laborer has to become a .part of the machine. Men may need/ ) that sort of thing, for men have always |been drilled in armies, but you don't find that a woman requires any effi- | ciency expert to show her how to econo- mize time, effort or anything else. Woman works instinctively, does her stuff the way a bird builds its nest, and produces the results while man is mak- ing the fancy calculations. Why try to run her into the bughouse of efficiency? w};y‘ not let the lady spider spin her web? But, then, men must organize every- thing, and it's organization which is the biggest bug in captivity today. We are like bees in a hive and ants in an ant- hill. There you have perfect organiza- tion and there you have the big bug- house—modern civilization. (Copyright, 1929.) NANCY PAGE Four-Poster Beds Are of Many Patterns. BY FLORENCE LA GANKE. Two days before Nancy returned from the South the Early American Club had their meeting. The subject was beds. It so happened that the hostess of the day had a Sheraton | bedstead which was a family heirloom. ‘When the guests laid their wraps on it as they came it meant little to them beyond the fact that it was an heir- loom, but after they had discussed the various types of four posters they looked at the bed with a most intelli- gent and appreciative interest. It was Grace's turn to give the talk and lead the discussion. She started by show- ing the built-in cupboard like atiairs | which were superseded by the massive affairs of carved oak. These were used in England during the seventeenth cen- tury and were already out of favor when America was settled. The more slender post bedsteads of Queen Anne's time were in and were copied here. Chippendale beds were made of ma- hogany, and had fluted or reeded posts. | The acenthus carving might be on test- ers or on posts near framework of bed. The Sheraton beds were lighter than Chippendale and had vaselike posts which tapered gracefully to a slender and delicate end. His acanthus carv- ing was used to connect two different forms of turning on the post. The Hepplewhite beds used tapering posts | with square bases and with much vine- | lilfi carving twining about the post it- self. Grace's bed was a Sheraton. It was canopled with a figured material which was used also for valance. This mate- rial was most effective against the plain paper in the bedroom. The spread it- self was an old-time candlewicking one in white. In olden days the four posts and testers held up heavy curtaining to keep in warmth and to keep out draughts at night. Now we use much lighter weight material and keep it for tester top, not for all four sides. (Copyright, 1929.)

When he foiled the villain, the villain “stayed foiled.” After each per- formance huge crowds waited at the stage door to see him come out. So did we once. He was a genuine, No. 1 hearthreaker and stampeded the imagination of young and old girls. During the years to follow we met this erstwhile swashbuckler and found him to be a regular fellow. Away from the fcotlights he doffed the mantle of he- roics and proved to be one of the most interesting of men. About 10 years ago he went into the movies, but fate de- creed that should be third and fourth rate pafts. His glory has faded. Life is but a stage, after all. THE VILLAIN "STAYED) FOILED."
