WILME'I'TE Declares Little Accessories Necessary to Complete Home Give Touch of Beauty and Uaefulneu Essential to Liveable Room By ELSIE WEST "Wi th accessorie s to match" are word s usually appli ed to the. bride as she is described in a stunnmg gown of " what-you -will " with sa id accessories. They help make up her co~ tume and play an important part tn its attractivenes . But there are other things beside costumes that nee_ d acces sories and a living room that ts supplied with these corn-enient and decorative touche s adds a great deal to its artisticness as well as its comfort. For what would a living room be that was furnished only with chairs and a davenport? A barn-like place to say the least. It needs the smaller things to fill in the empty spaces.. to act as contrasts to the more mass tve but hig hly ornamental table is . the Sec on d, then, that finds its wa y mto the living room. Of course we must not forget the end table without which the davenport is not complete. It also has. a place at the side of the big cas~ charr. This table may be bought wrth the idea oi decoration first and have no other use than as a table-then a lam p or a pair of bookend~ may furnish it s adornment. But. !f ~ne wishes to make it a more ~trl~tanan proposition and yet keep rt m the realm of the beautiful, these e~d tables may be se lected for a multrtude of purposes.

Every living room really needs about four or five tables. One table of medium size to take the place of the table which no longer holds the place of honor in the center of the room, is, of course, necessary a s a reading table. Catele· Table Alway· CoCMI A gateleg table is always in good taste for this, but if you prefer one of another shape with an anbroken top it may be used. It is a matter to be settled by the individual's ideas. Gateleg tables may be obtained in a variety of different styles, sizes and finishes, from the dull finish walnut or mahogany one to those that are smaller and lacquered in black and made fanciful by the Chinese designs in gold upon them. At least one ~ece of lacquered furniture is good in nearly every living room. Recently I saw an attractive little table with three shelves done in an orange-red lacquer. The bottom shelf was probably not more than · t inches wide, and the top one does not take up ~uch ~r~m ·~~d ~~ tainly adds a bit of brightness to the spot it adorns and at the same time is very useful. It needs no decoration, but may be used to hold the ash tray, the evening paper or the afternoon tea cup. Along this same line was a green lacquered coffee table, the top of which seemed to be made of an old Japanese tray. A small, occasional, We could learn from the Japanese in regard to this point. They display only one picture at a time, choosing the subject that is appropriate to the season of the year, or some special occasion; and they keep it in its place for only a short time. If we were to have enough pictures (and it would not take many) to change at intervals those that hang on our walls, we should see them to far better advantage and appreciate them the more. The decorative effect of the home would thus be enlivened and impro.ed, with new colot- in the old ·pot. You may hear home eulogiz~d .bY the children in the streets smgt'!g the hackneyed "Back Home Agam Blues" and on the opera stage by the beautiful Mignon, in Ambrose Thoma s' well-loved "Knowest Thou the Land," who longs for the country of her home -from which she was stolen as a child.
