-hangincTpictures/
When a room has been newly wall
papered there comes an opportunity to
rearrange and dispose of the pictures
which formerly hung there. No picture
should be rehung that does not look
well against the new background, and
such pictures 09 do not suit the style of
the room should be ruthlessly removed
elsewhere. As a room Is made by its
wall decoration, so Is It spoiled by In
appropriate pictures.
Pictures should not only be suited to
tho apartment where they are to be
hung, but also suited to each other. It
Is a mistake to hang a water color next
to an oil painting, just as It la wrong to
place a reprint beside a flno engraving.
Dining room or library pictures In their
heavy frames will be entirely unsultcd
to the delicate traceries of a pompadour
paper. The wide Flemish oak frames
now used so much for photographs look
well on almost any wall, but they are
essentially Intended for a plain back
ground.
Never crowd too many plcturea on
one wall, so that no one can b« properly
appreciated. Many are prone to over
crowd their walls as well as their draw
ing rooms, but a private house le net
ther a bric-a-brac shop nor an art gal
lery, and. Indeed, no art gallery would
orowd Its treasures Into an lndlsttn
gutshable confusion.
Plcturos must not be hung too high
to be seen clearly nor too low to look
well, but every good housekeeper will
seo to It that her pictures, like her win
dow shades, are hung straight and kept
even. A crooked picture drives some
people with orderly minds almost to
distraction.
AN INTERESTING INCIDENT.
The Chattanooga Times gires this account
of the first meeting of Governor Patterson
and bis fiancee:
An Interesting story Is going the rounds
tbit points n bus of romtnee for n back
ground In tho live affairs of Governor Pat
terson. Picture a town hall crowded with
people Interested In a political campaign
that la at Its bright The ladles become In
terested along with the men. They —
strong partisans of a candidate for gubei
torlal honors who la to sneak. Flowers, the
purveyor of woman's sentiments of Interest,
nro provided for presentation, and the belle
of the town la selected to prnent them. A
meeting of eyes, s loss of aelf-posaeaslon. s
sense of mutual attraction—and the mischief
Is done. Sack Is the story told of how Mal
colm IL Patterson and Miss Mtry Russell
Gardner met.
"It was In Union City early In the ctm-
pelgn wherein Mr. Patterson was — ~
his stumping tour against B. Clay
The male Democrats had provided a spirit
ed reception for the eendldate, a good
speaker to Introduce him and plenty of en
thusiasm to greet his oratory, It all'work
ed beautifully, bnt the lidies (they were
Democrats too.) furnished a number on the
program that In tho end proved of more mo
ment to the brilliant Memphian thin votes,
office or political affluence.
"Just before Mr. Patterson began his
speech his attention was attracted by a
vision of loveliness approaching him upon
the rostrum. She bore In her arms a hugo
bouquet—flowers from Union City's fem
inist Democrats—and In her head a poetical
speech ahe had memorlxed and Intended to
deliver In presentation of the flowers. Tho
eyas of the governor met those of the flower
bearer. The meeting had Identical effect
upon both. The young woman forgot her
the next governor. But If eomel
rlona destroyed her power of .pei-vH,
trained orator suffered none tho lem. Ills
usually glib tongue played him felse, and
two cnntnsed countenances betrayed the bo
ot the end—thnt end being Indicated
announcement that the parents of
Mist Gardner had formally siren out the
news of her engagement and approaching
marriage to Governor 51. R. Patterson '
