Walls are the most important single element in the room. They set the light, and the room is dark and gloomy or gay, plea- sant, and cheerful, according to what goes on those walls. Color is the first thing to look for. Light papers make dark rooms. Useful, when you con- sider that dark, narrow hall, small dining -room, or large comfortable living -room a little too generously shaded by trees, porch, or outbuild- ings. If we know, we don't make mis- takes. We put on a light paper and make sure that it is a color which has a lot of yellow in it—light yellow brown, tan, ivory, or buff—for yellow is a natural reflector of light,'and there's nothing that will do the work as well. Remember, the wall is al- ways acting like the reflector of a lamp; it is catching and throwing back into the room every scrap of light that comes in at the window, and you 'increase or decrease this. according to the color of the reflector. Sometimes the room is exceedingly bright and sunny, almost a glare. Then use the darker, duller papers— the softer grays, the greens, or blues. Avoid the yellows, and the bright, light colors. 'Greens, blues, and reds all absorb light. Never use them where the room is small or has the slightest tendency to dullness or gloominess. Keep them for bright, airy, sunny places. One more point: Ceilings and floors are also a part of your "reflector." Match them carefully to your walls, keeping the ceiling lighter and the floor a little darker than the wall color. Then we retain the comfort- able feeling of openness above, like the. sky out of doors; and of solidity underneath, like the ground; and we have a comfortable range of color which goes far toward making an attractive room.

The slight difference in either flavor or texture will be found very agreeable, especially at this time of the year when the, appetite craves something new. To obtain the best results, use pastry flour for all cakes made with baiting powder.. Date and Nut Cake is delicious, It requires one cupful of flour, one cup- ful of sugar, one cupful of chopped nut meats, one eupful of dates cut in very small pieces, three eggs, one tea- spoonful of baking powder. Beat whites of eggs and yolks separately,, add half the sugar to each and beat again. Combine mixtures and add flour, baking powder, nuts and. dates.

Mix butter, sugar and egg. thoroughly, add salt, spices,. soda and molasses and half the flour, beat until smooth, then add orange and remaining flour. Bake in a 'shal- low pan. When done brush with melt- ed butter and sift powdered sugar over the top. • Premium Coffee Cake is so called because cakes made by this recipe trust your life to a man who could behave like that to a helpless woman?' "Yes," she said, "yes—a thousand times yes." He smiled grimly. "The worst is yet to come," he continued. "My wife had decided to have nothing more to do with Merrington. I purposely— devilishly threw them together again, and in the sane circumstances that had made them fall in love with each other before. I wanted to be free, and I saw this vile way to free- dom. I did all in my power to get rid of my wife—not openly by telling her that I wanted to marry another woman, but secretly, so that she should take the first step—so that she should be in the wrong. I arranged for Merrington to paint another por- trait of my wife. And even in this I failed.

CHEVROLET —is easily within fhe reach of all NEVER before in the history of the auto- mobile utomobile industry has such car value been possible. And it is possible now, only because the Chevrolet Car and Chevrolet business prin- ciples have been so universally and so favorably, received.. Chevrolet production has, as a result, rapidly grown in volume until now Chevrolet is the world's largest manufacturer of quality automobiles. Chevrolet quality is more than apparent. For, the more closely Chevroletis examined and the more severe the tests demanded, the more con- vincingly is Chevrolet quality demonstrated and< proved. Moreover, day by day continuous service, brings out another economy equal, if not greater in. importance, than Chevrolet's remarkably low first cost. Chevrolet is more economical to operate than any other car built, and its main- tenance cost :is the lowest in the world. Investigate Chevrolet yourself.
