In Recent Years

In Recent Years
A question often has been asked by sensf-
BILE housekeepers which is 1t best to use,
metal or wooden beds? With this question
she has approached probably the manager
of some more or less representative house
and even then could not get a Satisfactory
answer. Here is a rule which an authority
has established and which he believes can
safely be pursued. He says: Suppose the
housekeeper in question wishes to furnish
q bed room without endeavorng to produce
any more or less classic or especial style,

clothes as simple possible. No other
trimming than a frill lace edge at neck and

therefore permissible. For children of larger
growth the essential points to remember
are simplicity, symmetry and freedom TO
