HOIIE ITS PROBLEMS 4ND INTERESTS
Simplicity the Keynote Of All
Window and Door DraperieS
Latter Frequently Festooned Over Poles,
No Rings Being Used.

The new fashion of draping door hang
ings in simple designs will be welcomed
by women who arrange their own home
decorations, for the work will not be
so difficult this fall as IL has been for
several seasons. The actual draping OF
portieres or hangings over poles, or to
grille, etc, is, the only part that will be
trying. In all cases decorations that
conform to the rooms should be fol-
lowed and the material should be a
part of the color scheme and correspond
with the designs of the furniture, so
that a person looking at a hanging will
know instinctively that 1t leads to the
dining-room, library, or n bedroom. etc.
by the color pattern of the material
and the fashion of drapery. Even the
size of the room will be apparent If a
certain housewife follows an old rule
observed by furnishers Of selecting
small designs for little rooms and big
patterns for large apartments.
For the dining-room door hangings
draped in the SIMPLEST fashion by being
pinned to rings on a pole and dropping
straight to the floor In folds, called Co
lonial style, are most appropriate and
give the desired heavy effect that is
noticed in all such apartments, whether
large or small, and is harmonious with
the whole because of the sew Gritty or ex-
actness of the furniture.

French Hangings.

French portieres in floral tapestry, with
silk fringe, could be prettily arranged
on rings and draped over a pole for use
in a parlor doorway
The portieres should be pinned TO the
rings in full, deep folds, leaviag a wide
heading at the top Of eighteen or twenty
inches that can be used artistically
draped over the pole. Before arranging
the ends OF the leading curtain one
should be pulled about half way across
the pole, and the point in the over
hanging edge drawn up to the pole and
made fast with tack The long fringe
makes this style effective
The heading Of the other curtain is
drawn around the pole az the inner edge

borer, worked on a shelf about five
feet below tho surface and fifteen feet
above Brennan. One side of the trnc
was shord up, but tho other was not,
and 1t was the unprotected side that
caved in. Brennan was completely
buried and Smith was buried up to his
neck
The other men got Smith out IN a
hurry, but they had TO dig hard to save
Brennan's life. After they got hi hesad
