Russian nobleman of immense wealth has hit upon a curious Meth- od of ceiling decoration. Every ceil- ing in his mansion coutains a fresco dealing with an episode in the aareer of his anCeetors, and the whole forms what is, perhaps, a unique ex- ample 'of inner -roof -ornamentation. Nearly 500,000 roubles havo been ex- pended upoa this extraordinary work a sum equal in our own vela to ape proximately 8857,500. Less extravagant, but undoubtedly quite as ettrlous, 1,s the ceiling decor- ation of a certain London household- er, who has covered th,e, ,surface in question with cancelled cheques re- turned to him through his bank. At first glimpse the real nature of this 'qualut embellishment Isnotappar- ent to til0 saectator, but the .effect of samo s sitid- to be positively charming. A. Tuscan nooto who flourisited dur- ing tho seventeenth century had , the ceilings of his palace lined with ex- quisite mirrors ,of the linest. quality of glass, whilst a contemporary of his adopted a similar device, the mirrors, however, being flecked with eoreeous Delvers of all hues or thA rainbow, The effect presented by the latter decoration was reputed to bo exceoclin.qy pic'turesque and one may well"concelve, that such was indeed the case. • - In tha city of St. Louis, Mo., there is a certain- Ilairnressinnesoleen the ceiling of which is entiroly'covered by photographs of stage and inusic-hall 'celebrities. Every likeness bears the atitograpli of its original, and a step -ladder is invariably kept in the shop in order that any patron may inspect the curious ceiling ea close quarters if he so desires I SERVE ON A QUEER JUR1 counTs 0.7.
