An old-fashioned desk of the roll-top
variety is placed between the windows
opposite the fireplace and is painted
black, with the inside and alt the many
pigeonholes painted a bright green.
Green dishes ure pretty on the little
blnck testable beside the settle, where
a cozy spot for afternoon tea with fire
light and candles iB crented. There is
a gateleg table in the middle of the room
painted black between two chairs, and a
reading lamp with a green pottery base
gives sufficient light so that no other
lights are needed.
A simple couch is placed against the
wall in case of extra visitors, but has
been disguised and makes a comfort
able nook in which to cuddle up in the
daytime. A deep ruffle of linen all
around the sides and dozens of bright
colored cushions makes this one of the
most popular resting spots in the room.

Relaxation
ONCE upon a time there was a wom
an who believed herself to be the
busiest woman in the world. She was
quite sure that no other woman had
the trials and tribulations that were
hers. Her children were just a little
more careless, untidy and ungrateful,
her husband a little more absent-mind
ed and her wash woman a little more
unsatisfactory than herself. So she
said.
