This Will Be A Curious Room

A cnrioas room, well worth describiiig, says ïhe Upholsterer, was receutly undertaken by a New Yorker, bnt np to the time of our last inspection had not progressed much beyond the mere scheme. The idea applied simply to the walls, which were covered in a dark deadish green ingrain paper, and at varions points aronnd these walls were simple sbelves upou which were deep green jardiuieres containing artificial flowers arrauged after the style of the Japanese, appearing to be in natural growth, each pot contaimng but one kind 'of flower. Vines were arranged npon the walls aiid, presented thus, were theonly designs or colorings anywhere upon the fonr sidesof the room. Artificial flowers are plentiful and at certain periods are cheap enough. The calculation was that about $15 worth of flowers were needed, and we can readily nnderstand that the idea would give the appearance of quaiutness if nothing more.
