New Things and Clever ideas De ribeo
nv The Decorator and Furnisher.
Centers Of heavy linen are very effective
on the dining table when couched with gold
and with the background fish scaled with
white silk. The COUGHING is of the heavy
Japanese wash gold. which has on the
silken BACKGROUND the effect Of gold bro
cade. The hem is simple hemstitched OF
may be finished with fall Of lace. Heavy
or fine sheer linens, sateens. silk and bolt
ing cloth are all used as centers, and newer
than any OF these is a silk material called
Email cloth, which is especially adapted
TO centerpieces, because il is woven 50 Ike
huckaback that darning isasimple matter.
II is decorated with a bold design, either
outlined or couched. a favorite comblna-
ton for which is delicate green and white.
One of the novelties seen as yet only IN
the shops is the swinging, cranehke rod TO
be put on dO0rframes, and from which the
portiere is suspended instead Of being
fastened 10 the frame. These come 10
white. with brass rings and trimmings,
and probably darker wood as well, and are
ornamented with curves and scrolls They
swing back and forth and are fastened at
one end only. so they can be adjusted at
any angle desired. They might be used
across a narrow stairway with portieres
looped high TO allow . Ssing up and down
the stairs, or across the foot Of a couch
where the head comes IN a corner, thus inn
proyising niche. and for various other pur-
poses.
Many Of the newest sofa cushions are
made Of beautiful brocades with the pat
tern embroidered in silks, chenille and
gold thread. Some exquisite designs are
worked in tapestry stitch, and others in
tent stitch on a watered gold or silver
ground The stitches are worked on can
vas. laid on the watered material which is
drawn away afterward Some have panels
of silk or even lace on silk, carried dag
onally between embroidery Basket stitch
