ing Inmates of the Soldiers' homes at Grand

bearing the offerings ot the season.
To the east and to the west of the llrht
court are altars erected to Mercury and
supported by pi Mars bearing lions' hearts.
The Baldachin suspended aboe the pan
eageways of the "temple" signifies '.he
protection of Mercury. The roof of the
temple 1 brilliant with light.
.Along each side of the main passage
way are rows of antique lamps on artis
tic standards, supported by sphynxa.
Surrounding the light well Is a plaster
frieze in the anciet scroll and leaf effect,
studded with lights. Banks of palm also
line cither side of the court.
Above the frlese are cuplds represent
ing the months of the year, all bearing
appropriate festoons. As a background
for these figures is a frieze of leaves In
delicately harmonized blues and greens.
The effect of this portion of the decora
tion Is better viewed from the second
floor. The color scheme of the decora
tions in general shows the delicate pastel
shades.
The brilliant lighting of the scene Is
one of the most attractive features of

months of planning and execution by
Brandels' interior Uecorators, and many
experts declare It Is by far the most
artistic decoration ever attempted by a
western store. It Is comparable to' a
great stage setting or an exquisite mural
