every house furDisher, whose idess Of in

( educsted, will not for moment overlook
through any enrspturiug ecstasy over
beautiful things not easily bieaded into
their surroundings. The window

is in rea!ityIgiven much careful and pains

criminative judgement and the means to
crafty their desires appreciate only the
best Of everything and demand the best,
even to the smallest items. The opaqued
Hollands have become universally recog-
nized os the leading shade cloth. Their
soft neutral colors, Arm, even texture,
smooth finish, and great wearing quail
ties have made these Hollands more gen.
erslIy used than shy one material ever
made for this particular purpose.
While curtains over the shades sre not
indispensable, they are pretty adjuncts
and can be made Of scrim or dotted swiss
muslin, so IS not to be very expensive,
and bows Of ribbons or bright cords
looping them tsstefully will add much 10
the beauty of the room.
