WINTER .pRAPERiES.


Timely suggeftions on the Decoration Of
Household Interiors
There has been a great change in
the last score of years in the .entiSc
matter of household decoration. The
use of drapery enters largely into all
the new schemes of interior decora-
tion. The great space for folding doors
between pariors, which was formerly
left bare and comfortiesss to look up
on, is now draped. Even for wall
coverings in houses of. elaborate fur
nishinings, tapestry or even plain
denim drapery takes the place of pa
per.
But we have learned a great deal
about drapery in the last few years,
and have found that, like every other
good thing, it has its limitations. This
the English decorators have discover
ed, though the French never seem to
learn it. The word ''frippery" well
applies to French house-furnishing.
1t is fussy and overdraped. while the
English fashion, from which the
American stylesi in furniture are taken,
strikes a happy medium. There is
not too much drapery. A neatly fur
nished parlor in this country should
never present n similitude to q millin-
ers showroom with its huge bows and
artificial flowers.
. In. summer, elaborate curtains and
heavy draperies should be dispensed
with, in order to admit the air freely;
but'in the winter, hangings not only
help to furnish room, but keep out
draughts. There have been many at
tempts to revive the old lambrequin
and elaborate upholstered hangings for
windows, but thus far this has failed.
People of the best taste continue to use
simple window pole and rings for
portiers. and window curtains. A rod
of wood to match the woodwork of the
room is to be preferred to any elabor-
ate, gilded pole In selecting portiers
and window curtains, it is well to re-
member that they should be chosen in
a shade darker than the wall. Plain
blue denim looks we'll IN a room with
ivory-white paint and a pale wall paper
decorated in arabesques. II the paper
is of solid tint, the curtains should
show stripes or. figures. The fact that
n curtain is to hang in folds SO that the
pattern will be more or less broken
when it is hung must be borne in mind
when purchasing it. For this purpose,
perpendicular stripes are not to be
thought of, but horizontal stripes,
which are not broken in pattern when
: falling in folds, are always n good
choice, if in suitable colors. A plain
curtain with a striped dado or frieze
ut the top is easily obtained in mex.
pensive material, and furnishes" we'll.
Cotton velvets are often used for cur
tains, but as they require lining they
are not so economical choice as Tur.
conan, which is alike on both sides
and may be bought at one dollar u
yard in double width. A very pretty
portiere may be made ut home of silk
patches. Cut the silk in strips, and
sew them together in the same way
you do carpet rags Any old silk oi
cast-off ribbons that have been cleaned
will do for the purpose. Send them tC
n weaver and have them woven as you
do a rag carpet in two pieces, each
sixty inches wide, and OF the length OF
the doorway or archway to be filed,

LABOR LEADER 5.
Annual Meeting at Denver Of the American

Annual Meeting at Denver Of the American
Federation of Labor Condition OF the
Organization.
DENVER, Col, Dec 1.-THE four
teenth annual convention of the Amer
lean Federation of Labor was called
TO order by President Gompers yester-
day. President Rhodey Kenehan, of
the Denver trades assembly, delivered
the address of welcome, to which Mr..
Gonipers briefly responded. The latter
spoke fcelingly of the almost desperate
condition of labor at the present time.
Thomas NJ. Patterson. of Denver, was
then introduced and delivered an ad-
dress on ''Labor's Rough, but Noble
Struggle"
When the convention came to order
for the afternoon the committee on
Credentials reported on contested dele
cations and asked time to consider
three contests. The request was grant
ed. The report states in conclusions:
''In presenting this report your COM
mittee takes pleasure in reporting that
we have had placed before us creden-
tials of David Holmes and John Burns,
representing the trades unions of Great
Britain, and it affords us unbounded
pleasure to recommend to the conven-
tion the seating of these delegates from
over the ocean and the granting to
them of the full privileges of the con-
vention."
The president then delivered his an
nual report. He complimeuted the or
ganization upon being able to preserve
its existence during the recent adverse
circumstances lie defended the action
of the federation in regard to the A.
r. U. strike by the assertion that Mr..
Debs' proposition submitted to them
was virtual acknowledgment that
the strike was a failure. The honest
effort of the government to regulate
immigration was acknowledged, but
amendments to the laws were suggest
ed, the most important of which were
speedy trials of immigrants suspected
of being under contract, and the send
ing of agents to foreign countries to

The Stockmen in Convention at st. Louis
Take Action.
ST. LOUIS, Dec. THE delegates to
the meeting of the national live stock
exchange to-day prepared for n session
of hard work The main purpose of
this meeting is to take action upon the
embargo against American cattle by
foreign countries, especially Germany.
Chicago leads in the number present
and every one of her delegates is ag-
gressive upon the matter.
The question of war upon American
cattle by foreign countries came early
TO the front by the Introduction of n
memorial to congress with relation to
the state of existing affairs. Its read
ing was met with manifest approval by
the entire gathering. The presenting
of the paper was preceded by an eN-
planation of its purpose-the obtain
ing of relief through congress from
the unfortunate embargo placed upon
few American products, notably live
stock, dressed beef and hog products,
on account of the duty imposed by the
recent tariff act upon raw and refined
sugars from Germany, France, Bel
GUM, Denmark and Austria.

TENNESSEE IS REPUBLIC AN.
Complete Returns from Every County Ii
the State Elect Evans Governor.

Complete Returns from Every County In
the State Elect Evans Governor.
ST. LOUIS, Dec. Ga special from
Chattanooga, Tenn, says: THE Times
will publish to-day the official vote of
every county in Tennessee, each GER
titled to by county officers. The total
shows that Evans is elected governor
by plurality of s41, the vote standing:
Evans, republican, 1O5, ,167; Turney,
democrat, lO4, 1926. Turney was elected
in 1892 by 26,a5o plurality, showing a
big democratic slump.
The delay in ascertaining this result
has been due to the refusal of the can
vassing board to give out the figures,
a course of action which, being unpre-
cedented, has brought forth from all
conservative papers in the state the
most adverse criticism.

SHENANDOAH Pa, Dec 1O.-The town
