Apparently what the average man wants in a wife is a. woman who is a compendium of all the talents and ail the virtues.

WORRIED.

Answer—- If your fiance is able and willing assume the support of your mother and sister and invites them to live with you after you are mar- ried, that. seems the sane way to settle your problem. and he has a right to expect vou to accept his generous offer.

After all, he would not have to support your sister loniz. She should get on her own feet in a few years at most. and that would leave onl your mother who, in any even . wou'd probably always have to live with you.

Apparentlv the tlilniz that is mak- ing you think of breaking of‘! your engagement to your fiance ls that vour mother has some attachment to her own home that makes her unwiling to leave it. but surely you have too much sense and backbone to sacriﬁce yourself and him for the sake of a selﬁsh old woman's whim.

This man has loved you long and faithfully. He has waited patiently for vou as Jacob did for Rachel. And it would be given him a. raw deal to throw him over after all £11956 years of devotion lust because your mother is attached to a. par- ticular house.

DIGNITY» ECONOMY IN PAINTED WALLS

Finished entirely as one smooth expanse of delicate tone -_ it p9;- fect background for the beauty of line in furniture — the palntcd or end-melted Walls has a, dignity and serenity that is soothing t,o up nerves and restful to the eye iri quiet contrast to the bolder cri- ours of drapes. ornaments and other incidentals

Tho painted wall is ccoiicnrcal both frcm the vewpcint of diiia- bllity and the moderate co t, of re- decoratioii. Equally important, it is a. clean, sanitary finish that can easily be kept spotless with the aid of a. damp cloth. This is s. rir n; point for its adoption in any dec- orative scheme. particularly when there are children in the home.

The widespread favour the pant- ed walls enjoys is due to its value in the decorative scheme. Just. as long. as fabrics and furniture re- main interesting. s0 will the paint- ed wall be in demand.

The first, essential is to choose exactly the right paint for the job. A paint, which is correct fcr acme uses may be very wrong for even slightly different conditions. A good brush is also a very necessary" aid. 'I'lie size will depend upon the lob that has to be done. But tlie iii- pcrtance of a good brush cannot l); overestimated. It will wear better. hold more paint. leave a clean-fill edge. and give a more uniferin finish. it will mt leak or splatter or shed its bristles. Fsr a zrod
