w OMAN’S PAGE. Breezes Which Cause Annoyance BY LYDIA LE BARON WALKER. 1f you are troubled with articles blow- tng about and hangings fluttering out into the room when windows are opened during the night or daytime, try some which it is to go_makes & splendid throw to cover a table or desk and hold papers, etc, in place when a wind blows across them. The ocorners of the net must be weighted. An attractive cover can be made from colored net or theatrical gauze of ample dimensions 80 weighted. The net must be strong but very open so that it is not heavy as it lies across articles on a table. The weighted corners will hold the dainty cover in position without making it press down neavily on whatever it goes over. For Christmas gifts such covers are unusual, and sure to be appreclated because they are so useful. (Copyright, 1931.) DAILY DIET RECIPE FOUNDATION BUTTERS.

A cover over & table by a window will be held down securely if a weight is sewed in each corner. If the table- cover is washable sew a wee pocket in each corner and close it with a snap. | Into each pocket a heavy weight such as is used on garments is slipped in when the cover is freshly laundered or out when it goes to the wash. Large and heavy glass or metal beads are sometimes used decoratively as weights on corners of covers. Usually the beads have tassels depending upon them. Either the weights or the beads will hold covers down satisfactorily. A row of smaller garment weights sewed under the bottom hem of win- dow draperies wiil prevent them from fluttering out in a breeze. Weighted strips can be bought at notion counters of department stores. These are flex- ible and hold materials evenly. Or a few larger weights covered with the same material as the hangings can be sewed at regular spaced distances along the lower edge of the draperies. Another method of preventing drap- eries blowing about is to run a brass curtain rod through the bottom hem of the curtain. Use filled rods that are solid and heavy. Put a Tow of stitches along the hem to make a narrow por- tion of it especially for the rod to be run through. Adjustable attachments to screw to the sides of window frames can be bought to hold draperies away from the window panes. These are dropped inconspicuously down the sides of the frame when not in use. When 1n use they are pulled out, forming rods behind which the draperies are slipped and held away from open windows.
