CAMPBELL'S GOOD FURNITURE
I "REFINEMENT |
in the appurtenances of the home tends to personal refinement. It is
by our being reached and impressed by beanty in our surroundings
that we differ from animals and savages. If the world hadn't been fcjX
covered with blossoms there would have been no polite nations, no Jttt
ladies and gentlemen If there had been no green fields there would jfitf
have been no civilization. And it is by giving to our indoor habita- B£>
tiou the light and loveliness of the garden that we are kept from re- If —
s\3§l turning to barbarism. We de not jilace parlor furniture in the shed sKt
<>r l>arn. l<ecause the animals, like plants and vegetables, are without EE
sentiment—without any germs of civility or refinement. The ox can- FF%
n °t quickened into delight and courtesy by the sijjht of roses
morning glories. He can't enjoy beauty any more than the trees can fcW
enjoy music. There can be no snch a thing as a civilized animal, be- NBC
cause the animals can never be blessed with happy and enlightened IfSC
JtSJ feelings You may trim the barn like a mansion, yon may
.JjSJ glitter with mahogany and marble, you may surround the horse with mi
splendid pictures and paintings, but yon cannot make him smile or
bow to other horses. The appreciation of beautiful environment is S3
«3£f given to human beings alone. It is given to them as a means of social ftS
elevation and improvement, and when a savage buys a rug or sofa for
?5o wigwam he ceases to be a savage. Of course a refined home does fcj?*
no * mean a costly or showy home. It means a home marked by taste )6f
and comeliness in its appointments."—Artisan-Record. ISC
