The accompanying sketch illustrates v and inexpensive way of hang- t curt without the use of a brass rod, tupe or hooks. The et 1 itself is of a pretty sim- ple type, made of soft white silk gath. ered into a frill at the top, and has insertion of lace a few inches from bottom. At the base of this frill, the material is turned over and Lemmed down, and a thin wooden lath, cut to fit across the window, run through. In each end of the lath there ains, are circular small which brass-headed nails can be run into the woodwork by the side of the holes, through window. These holes should be made large enough for the heads of the nails to pass through so that to take the curtain down it merely has to be lifted from the nails The small sketch at the top of the fllustration clearly shows this and the end of the lath that is visible on vlthori when a dress {8 hung in the wardrobe slde of the curtain can be painted the sume color as the woodwork behind it. Short curtains suspended in this "manner will not sag in the center, which so often happens with curtaing hung upon tapes, and as the lath is stiff, it can be run through the curtain fn a moment, and equally easily with- drawn when the curtain has to be wushed. PICTURE HANGING A FINE ART Careful Study of the Possibllitics Should Be Made Before Com- mencing Work. Picture hanging may become a fine art, and, ase in all artistic composition, the general must precede the particu- lar. You must first have a comprehen- slve idea of your plctures and the groups into which they fall by reason | of slze, color and subject before you can plan their hanging. Nor must you hang any one picture on the wall until in a general way you have men- tally hung them all. If you have a long, narrow picture and a short, broad one that seem to ! put such belong together, place the Jong pic- ture two or three inches beneath the other. This will give the impression conveyed by a column and its capital, of mass supported by slender strength, In a loag, narrow wall space such an arrangement is particularly happy. In general, hang smaller pictures below larger. Pictures should usually be on or shortly abowe the level of the eye. Cer- tain pictures, however, can be elevate ed without detriment to their iveness, The Sistine Madonna, for in- poised, as it were in the heav- nothing by being raised well above the other pictures, Your pictures are individuals. Each has been lovingly wrought with some one end in view. Put your- self in the place of the artist; respect his aim; do justice to his achievement. If you succeed in this, your pictures, like intelligent, well-mannered guests, will become an integral part of your household, each contributing of its! beauty, its strength or its character to the whole. effect- stance, ens, loses T0 KEEP NECKWEAR FRESH When Traveling, Put Between Leaves of a Magazine—Remarkable Col- lars and Ruches.

Instead of sewing the ruch or collar into tho neck of the dress, sew snaps every two or three inches along the facing of the neckpiece and the corresponding parts at equal distances on the neck of the dress. In this way a neckpiece may be quickly trans- ferred to another dress, or taken off or packed in a suit case, Sewing on Pump-Bows. Hero s a useful hint for busy house- wives: “While I was struggling with an ordinary needle, trying to sew some new bows on my pumps,” a corre- spondent writes, “my husband, who I8 a physiclan, suggested that I try one of his curved surgical needles. “It solved the problem at once, and now I keep one ready in my needle- case for immediate use. They can be cents.” For Stains. Tomato juice is said to be successful in many cases in removing ink stains from white materials, such as hand- kerchiefs, muslin frills, etc. It must however, be done as soon as possible after the mishap occurred. A clean pleco of blotting paper should be lald under the stain and a slice of raw, ripe tomato rubbed over the surface, fresh pleces of blotting paper being substl | tuted until the Ink spot has vanished.
