Two bands of the same color as the flower, about two inches wide and a foot apart. should be placed around the four sides. A comfort of white muslin, dotted with yellow flowers, is clean and dainty looking. A dainty comfort may be made of rose-colored sateen with white dots and knotted with white wash ribbon. It is a good plan to mark the bed linen for each room in some distinc- tive way, either by the initials of the person occupying the room or by some tiny device, such as a star for one, a circle for another or a red mark for one room, a green mark for another, and so on. It is a great help when sorting bed linen for many rooms. Proper Care of Reds. right way to air a bed, if bed s are not removed from the bed and placed on chairs, is to throw the over the foothoard across a chair, placed to keep them well off the fioor, and then lift the mattress in the middle, tilting it up so that air passes under and over it. One- half an hour of this will thoroughly air a bed, the windows being open ail the time. Air closets and wardrobes as you do a room. They are full of clothes that have been worn all day which need airing. If you have a flat yoof, take every mattress in the house up there occa- sionally and leave them in the hot sun for several hours. They will come back all fluffed up and sweet smelling. It would be well for the pillows and bedding to receive the same treatment. A mattress will be easier to handle if straps are attach- ed to the sides, and for this purpose pleces of old suspenders are very satisfactory, or strips made from bed ticking. Sew the straps or handles on firmly, two on each side. A mat- r should be made of bleach: muslin, buttoned over the foot tn i Hap. When making the bed it is a good plan to pin the under sheet on with big safety pins. Brass beds can be cleaned with damp cheesecloth. If tarnished. apply a soft flannel cloth moistened with olive oil and dipped in whiting. Rub clean with a soft, dry flannel or chamois skin. One can’ also Jacquer them and make them look 1Me new. First rub the brass vigorously with a flannel dipped in whiting, then get some shellac and dissolve it in enough alcohol to make it thin. Apply with & small brush. The work can be Qquickly done and the bed will look as pretty as If sent to the factory, at much less expens Window Curtains. Nothing in a house displays the taste of the home maker more plainly than the curtains and bhangings If there is little money to spend for cur- tains it is much better to use some- thing simple than to buy an imita- tion of expensive draperies. The thrifty housewife will find it an econ- omy to make her curtains at home. Tans and grays are by far the most serviceable colors to use for cur- tains, as well as the coolest and fresh- est looking. India prints, figured linens and many of the best quality of chintzes and cretonnes will hold their tones, and it is therefore often advisable to get a color effect by us- ing them rather than plain tones For bedrooms, however, it is oftei satisfactory to use scrim, cheesecloth, fishnet, Swiss, cross-barred muslin or plain-colored ginghams and cham- brays, which can be bought in fast dyes and which make charming side drapings over curtains of white net or fine white scrim. For a blue room one could use plain blue denim trimmed with a border of dlue and white flowered cretonne. When a plain wall covering is used cretonne curtains are always attrac- tive. The use of a flowered cretonne border on a white muslin or dotted Bwiss curtain assures one of a very decorative effect with a simple ma- terial. Do nat have too -much cre- tonne I one room, however. If there are segeral windows with figured tress co over-curtains, do not have more than | one chair covered with the same ma- Let the other furniture have unfigured upholstery in some color that is prominent in the cretonne or that harmonizes well with the wall covering. If there is a couch or win- dow seat, use the plain material there and make the cushions of the figured print. Sash curtains may be made so as to fly loose at the bottom with a hem, or they may have another rod to hold them firm. In addition to the sash curtain it is often desirable to have a long curtain of lace or some other sheer material, reaching from the top of the window to the sill or the floor. seeming stuffy and wintry, are a prey to moths. The old idea of shrouding all the furniture in ghostly garments for the hot season has always been regarded as thrifty and even sensible, but it is seldom attractive, aithough there is no reason why it should not be so.

Mattresses INTERNATIONAL BEDDING COMPANY BALTIMORE & RICHMOND .

The box-spring is the highest modern de- velopment in spring making. No other sort of spring compares with it for comfort. The 72 highly tempered spiral coils of the Conscience Brand box-spring respond to the least move- ment of the body. Not the uncomforiable hammock-like sag of the link or woven spring. But the “give” is at the precise points of con- tact. So the body gets natural rest, the spring conforming to the body form. The durability of the box-spring is unquestioned. Conscience Brand box-springs installed in fine hotels years ago afford today the same unique rest as in the begmning. Conscience Brand box-spring sales have tripled this last year. The public understands what hotels learned some years ago, that a Conscience Brand box-spring is the most sensible and economical bed spring.
