The over hangings, seats of your din¬ 
ing-room chairs, rugs and other furnish¬ 
ings of your dining-room might be of 
figured mulberry, or in mulberry tones. A 
linen tapestry for the draperies; a woolen 
tapestry for the chair seats, and a rug 
embodying the two colors — mulberry and 
old gold. 
The hall I should furnish in tones of old 
gold. The living-room, being a south 
room, might be carried out in tones of old 
gold and old blue. Many beautiful fab¬ 
rics, rugs, potteries, etc., coming in these 
colors. 
In the den back of the living-room, the 
tapestry paper might be used. The pre¬ 
dominating color should be old blue. 
Where the paper is figured, hangings and 
other fabric furnishings of the room 
should be plain old blue goods. 
The bedroom in which you are going 
to use the cream enamel set, would be 
charming in a shell pink. Shadow cre¬ 
tonnes in beautiful patterns come in these 
tones, and a striped wallpaper at only 30 
cents a roll can be had. Plain mohair 
“Tudor - ’ rugs, size 3 by 6, which are a 
lovely color, and are soft to the feet, cost 
$9.50 each. 
The Circassian walnut set T should use 
in the blue room. Tudor rooms are also 
to be had in a charming tone of blue wall¬ 
papers and fabrics. 
Shadow cretonnes, or linen tapestries 
come in beautiful designs and colorings 
appropriate for use in such a room. 
Why do you not use the name “Golden 
Glow” for your place, and have planted in 
the yard, or grounds, large clumps of this 
profusely flowering plant? The name is 
also suggestive of your view of San Fran¬ 
cisco Bay, and the Golden Gate. The name 
might be designed and cut out of heavy 
brass or wood, covered with gold leaf, 
and inserted in the chimney or wall of your 
house in some way. I refer you to the 
article in the September number of this 
magazine. “Distinctive Devices for House 
Exteriors” for suggestions. 
Should you be interested in carrying out 
any of the color schemes suggested, I 
would be glad, upon hearing from you, 
to send you samples of wall paper, rugs 
and fabrics suggested. 
Query .—Have read with interest your 
“Inside the House,” and wish for a few of 
your good suggestions for a new home. 
The exterior is “Germantown Colonial” — 
Bokara brick, white trimmings, formal en¬ 
trance, and living porch at right. 
The living-room is to be finished in 
dark oak, but the furniture is mahogany. 
What would you suggest for the color 
scheme; also kind and color of brick for 
a plain brick fireplace? 
The dining-room is to be in white wood¬ 
work, blue walls, with mahogany furni¬ 
ture. Would you advise panels; if so how 
high? The ceiling is nine feet and the 
room 15' x 16' — no high windows. 
What do you consider the most prac¬ 
tical finish for kitchen walls, woodwork 
and floor ? V. R. P.
