“The Wood Finishing Authorities’’ 
Shutters filling the side lights of the Palladian window over 
this Colonial entrance in Salem, Mass., are in pleasing

variety has the solid portion at the bot¬ 
tom with the slats at the top. By this 
means, both the fastenings of the shutter 
are more safely guarded from possible 
marauders, and the free circulation of air 
keeps in constant movement the heated 
air which has risen to the ceiling of the 
room within. 
The solid shutter, which is exceedingly 
popular just now, is exceptionally pretty 
and artistic, but does not, of course, ad¬ 
mit the air to any appreciable extent. An 
awning may serve the purpose of half¬ 
open blinds, however, and by this means 
both the quaint form of shutters may be 
utilized and the house further beautified 
by gay awnings, which add so materially 
to its attractions from without. If the 
house is to be left vacant for any consid¬ 
erable portion of the year, as in the case 
of the summer home, this shutter, if 
firmly fastened on the inside, offers a pro¬ 
tection of a very real kind which can be 
afforded by no other form of window cov¬ 
ering, unless it be the unwieldy and un¬ 
sightly batten. 
The all-too-common method of admit¬ 
ting air and light by the simple boring of 
three holes in the shutter is unnecessarily 
inartistic, when so many good designs, 
which make the shutters a real feature of 
the house instead of only a useful part of 
its equipment, lie ready to hand. The 
crescent moon is so frequently used that 
we lose sight of its beauty in its common¬ 
placeness; but numberless other figures 
may be cut out in silhouette, on any part
