Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Home Ideal In the matter presented in this little book, I have given complete descriptive color schemes of the room shown in the photographs. The greater number of these rooms are of my own designing. These photographs and the suggested schemes will, I hope, be of practical service to the woman who is planning her house. Having been engaged in practical house decorating and furnishing, I have, of necessity looked fully into the question of what Finishes, Stains and Enamels would best produce the effects I had planned. The various dull finish stains, as well as the eggshell and the high gloss ivory white enamel, with the many other unique finishes, all made by Chicago Varnish Company, have given to me and to my clients complete satisfaction. I wish this book also to be a grateful acknowledgment that I have been able through their goods, to obtain artistic effects, which otherwise would have been impossible. These photographs show the successful combinations which may be reached through the medium of these softly toned and attractive wood stains, and exquisite enamels tor the standing woodwork of the room. In the magazine and newspaper work which I am conducting on these lines, I reach many people in remote districts, and from them I am in constant receipt of Letters. These prove that the materials manufactured and put upon the market by Chicago Varnish Company (which have been used by my advice) are enabling the man of moderate means, as well as others, to secure for himself a home with a beautiful interior.

Download or read book Homes of Character Classic Reprint written by Lewis Manufacturing Company and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2016-11-09 with total page 162 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Homes of Character Your uneven, woodsy site wants a rambling-roofed, close-to-the ground design, one that will look as if it grew there without much human help, that will take kindly to clambering vines and winding cobblestone paths and rustic seats in unexpected nooks under the trees. On the other hand, such a design in its turn would be quite out of place on a level, smooth-shaven lawn with a few fine trees rising here and there and trim, formal garden plots. This kind ofa site demands the dignity, the pure, severe lines of the colonial or semi colonial home. The same advance in adaptation to actual artistic and practical needs is shown in modern interior arrangement. Gone is the parlor with its hideous contorted furniture, the custom of leaving the best room in the house utterly unused except on rare oc casions. Instead we find the living room, a place where the truly beautiful is also comfortable to live with, where nothing is too nice for everyday, and yet every thing speaks to the guest of a high standard of culture and comfort.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Secret of Progress Buckle1 regarded it as clear that militarism and high intellectual development were not compatible: till recently, many people were prepared to believe that warfare was alien to the interest of civilised peoples and could only occur among half civilised or backward races. But this war has shown that these hopes were vain, and that the last result of civilisation was not to render war impossible, but to give the means of carrying it out on a vastly extended scale. The increase of knowledge and of power over nature, and the sense of the benefits of intercourse and inter-communication have not sufficed to give us any immunity from war.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Ideal Life It is Spring, and the whole world is green; green overhead, where the wind and the tree-tops talk together as it "bloweth where it listeth;" green lower down where the nests hang between floating lights and shadows in the leafy boughs, and unseen winged things twitter and stir in the verdant silence; green under foot where the lush meadow grasses grow thick by every pool and limpid stream. The Spring is abroad; in the air, which is resonant and vibrant with all clear, sweet sounds; in the orchards, where the fruit-trees stand by night with a white spray and mist of blossoms in the silvery moonshine; and, in the long pastures, green and fresh and sweet, where the herds of cattle wander at their will.
