WINDOW AND DOOR nRAPERIEs.

Draperies and curtains are not sue
cessful, no matter how beautiful in
themselves, says the New York Com
mercial, unless they harmonic with
the other furnishings, and although
the changes in their style from, one
season to the other may be slight, they
are none the less important. One can
buy curtains in any period nowadays
Empire, Colonial. Louis XVI, etc.
Tapestry panels and hangings and
other kinds of textile fabrics are in
vogue for walls for those who care for
them.
New sash curtains, or French cur
tains, as they are sometimes called, are
made in a graceful design called
"Grande Dana" They are of net and
Arabian lace, finished with full ruff
fie at the bottom. They are also made
in two pieces, like an inside curtain
These curtains are expensive to pur-
chase but they are easily copied in in
expensive materials by the clever ar
tistic woman who can -embroider and
is past mistress at the beautiful rib
bon work.
For cheap curtains there are pretty
muslins, with ruff1ed edges, and often
a design in color just above. There
are curtains of Japanese crepe, and
some in Persian patterns, that are ar
NAStiS anu NCly INEXPENSIVE. 1T is a
curious fact that of all the ancients the
Persians were the first to use floral
motifs in their designs.
popular and inexpensive curtain
Tor country houses or for bedrooms is
: made of pretty chintz or cretonne Dor
dered all round with band of denim
for instance, cretonne curtain, with
rosebud stripe. Striped cretonne is
most desirable this season, and will
have border of moss green denim. II
something new is desired, hang them
under straight cornice of wood, COW
cred with the cretonne, instead of using
pole and rings. Curtains also are
made of cretonne to harmonic with
the room, and are finished simply with
a Tom Thumb fringe, made of all the
colors in the material The bedspread
and Exchanging, if any, usually are
made to match. Much has been said
for and against the draping of beds,
but 1t is a pretty fashion, and contin-
ues to be followed. The latest plea in
its favor is that the draperies keep out
draughts, and therefore prevent colds,
while more fresh air can be allowed
in a room with a cutain bed than when
no drapery is used.
For curtains and draperies there are
cotton taffetas printed with Japanese
wistaria pattern. In a portiere of Tex
as cotton one of the designs has three
wide borders at the bottom and one at
the top showing pheasants, which is
both striking and new. Then there are
Liberty muslins that are wonderfully
decorative, and Japanese striped
gauzes and escurial lace in all colors,
with all-over designs, appliqued or
net. If any one will take the time, all
these artistic draperies can be made at
home. A clever woman recently made
a beautiful cover for her grand piano.
The top is of moss green cloth, and a
fitted band of the same goes round the
pinno. On this is embroidered part
of Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata"

ut isn't fair. Blondes are the most
beautiful the most amiable and the
most everything that women should be
in all creation.
why, almost all beautiful women
have been blondes. Venus herself was
one; Shakespeare or Virgil or some of
those old writer's say so.
And look at the blondes amiability
and sweetness of disposition. Why,
when the Romans went up into Britain
they called the people they found there
angels, just because they had fair hair.
No other proof was needed to convince
them. And the Romans knew what was
what, even if they did have dark hair
themselves.
Did you ever read of a beautiful
fairy queen that didn't have blue eyes
and golden hair? 1 don't believe there
ever was such thing as a brunette
| fairy.
THE early poets and novelists knew
how to appreciate us.
who ever read of a brunette hero
inc fifty years ago? Tell me that, now!
Why, in those days, a brunette was not
considered decent even in a book. II
was always some dark-eyed, black
haired hussy, who went sneaking
around telling the hero all sorts of
dreadful fibs about the beautiful gold
en-haired maiden that he was going
to make his own.
why, those old-fashioned romances,
that otherwise would have ended hap
PLY right in the first chapter, were
sometimes strung out to three or four
volumes just because some horrid old
brunette insisted on poking her nose
into other peoples business.
But now we are called false and
inconstant; cheap comedians spring
jokes about out being so light-headed;
when the injured wife in the funny
paper finds hair on her husband
coat it is invariably a blonde hair.
Oh, it's simply unbearable.
II know why we are slandered,
though. It's those horrid dark-haired
women. They're envious of us. They
bleach their hair and try TO be like us.
But they can't.
Their hair may be washed in gold,
but not their souls. They are still bru-
nettes at heart, and we, poor things,
get the blame for all their dark deeds.

Mrs. RooseveIt,s Gowns.

Mrs. Roosevelt's preference for white
is evident in her choice of gowns for
the coming winter. She has eight new
toilets in white, including silk, satin
and velvet. One of the handsomest
of these is an elegant court train of
panne velvet deliberately trimmed with
old lace, heirloom in the Carew family.
This gown will be worn upon the oc-

New York, November a1.-The market
was strong on extensive purchases for
both accounts The sympathetic infiu-
ence Of rumors regarding a guarantee
lease of the elevated by the subway in
terest and an easier feeling with regard
to time money gave a huoyant tone to
the speculation.
The reactions which took place were
normal and in each instance were fol-
lowed by an advance of still higher fig
ures. Traders were favorably impressed
by the strength of St Paul, which rose
nearly per cent Rock Island issues
were decidedly strong, the preferred gain
ing 5 ger cent. Missouri Pacific rose
nearly per cent, as did Louisville and
Nashville. Many prominent issues gained
per cent and many lower-priced issues
did likewise. Copper advanced 2, with a
reaction of l per cent. Tennessee Coal
and Iron rose over per cent. Sugar held
str ng and some of the specialties scored
sharp advances. Manhattan rose per
cent, but gradually declined under real
izng and closed with a net loss of IL.
Metropolitan and Brooklyn, after early
improvement, ended with a reactionary
tendency. The market closed strong and
active.
