A LITTLE PORT¬ 
FOLIO of GOOD 
INTERIORS 
♦ 
People will never have clone talk¬ 
ing of the decorative possibilities 
of the city apartment. But few 
are able to carry out their theo¬ 
ries so successfully as has been 
done in this charming living room 
with paneled ivalls of soft green. 
The ivinclow draperies are of 
heavy antique damask in tur¬ 
quoise blue and green; the under 
curtains of coarse, old filet. The 
table is painted broivnish black 
with a yellow top. Reel icooclen 
plaques for lighting fixtures.

EIGHT ROOMS of 
MERITORIOUS 
CHARACTER 
♦ 
For the lover of the omnipresent 
Oriental, the Chinese reception 
room shown below will hold much 
interest. The lacquered furniture 
is in black and gold, with tioo or 
three pieces of dull sealing-wax 
red. The walls are a light jade 
green. The rug is black with a 
jade green border, while the por¬ 
tieres and valances are of black 
figured linen finished with vari¬ 
colored fringes. The lady in the 
frame, lioivever, is indubitably 
Occidental in extraction. Miss 
M. A. Lewis decorated the room
