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.
