Our doors and windows : how to decorate them . heopenings in the bay, that part of the room notincluded in the octagon having a flat ceilingfor the center, with vourroirs at either , then, the room would be six-sided,the broadest side being that next the body of the house, and inwhich would be the door. One-half of one of the smaller side-wallswould be taken up by the fireplace necessary against chilly fireplace and the door would form the only interruptions to alow divan running all around the room. A false roof, with woodenshutters provided with glazed sashes, would take the place of tent-roof and awnings in winter. The openings under the awningsmight be filled with lattice-work, Hindoo or Japanese, and mosquitonets could be fastened outside these if necessary. The window overthe fireplace should be in stained glass. The floor should be of marble mosaic or of marquetry of Moorishdesign. A Kurdish or Persian rug might coverthe greater portionof it. It is more comfortable, and more cleanly.—Art No. 22. Jig Saw Work Made of Three Thicknesses of WoodGlued Together. Special designs to order. Send sizes for estimates. Mi i
