Taste in Curtains.

Nothing improves a house so much as
the finishing touches of dainty white
swiss and soft nets. These give dainty
and flmy effect to the windows that is
most charming and restful to the eyes.
The glare from outside is mellowed, and
the folds give soft shadows, which add
greatly to the appearance of the room
inside. Lace curtains have some advan-
tages, as they keep clean longer than
the softer materials, but when they are
done up their last state is worse than
their first. The starchy appearance
which they take on is impossible for
the home that aims to be artistic.
When making curtains at home it is
best to make the hens from one and
one-half inches to two inches wide. The
corners must always be mitered, as this
looks more finished than extending the
side hens to the bottom and then fold
ing it up again. AS curtains are apt to
shrink or stretch after being washed, it
is we'll to turn in two or three thick
nesses in the top hem, and this should
be sewn by hand, SO that it can be adj
tusted each time it is laundered. If
this is done,s the curtain will not be
several inches too short or two or three
inches longer than the space they are
intended to fill when they go up after
they are first Numbered. This is so dis
couraging to housekeeper when she
has planned and given SO much time
and thought In getting some really
pretty hangings.

An Artistic Dining Room.

In one of the new houses recently
completed, the dining room has at
tracted the admiration Of everyone. Its
real charm cannot be conveyed in q
written description This room is cir
cular, which admits of an unusual
treatment. There are three windows at
one end, two facing the lawn and one
looking into an inc1osed porch. These
windows conform to the circle, as do
the built-in cupboards at the opposite
side Of the room. Behind traceried
doors are shelves filed with rare old
glass.
The wainscot Is Of mahogany, toned
q beautiful brown, and above this is
brown leather meeting a ceiling Of a
paler shade. The fireplace is Of mar
Bile of warm brown tone, and upon
the hearth are bronze andirons Of old
Spanish design.
The furniture is mahogany. The
chairs are upholstered in Cordovan
leather, in soft shades Of green, brown,
dull red and orange. At the windows
are long curtains Of silk rep, the color
of the walls. A few dull gold frames
provide high lights, and a unique shade
Of Tiffany glass, hung low over the
table, shows a fine color harmony Of
green's, browns, ,ambers and soft pur-
pies.

Draperies for Home.

Portieres obviate the undesirable
feature of a swinging door, end add an
element Of beauty. Such materials as
tapestry, velveteen, corduroy, silk, We.
lonr, denim, cotton, taffeta, mereerized
cotton, armure and cretonne, are proper
draperies. Chenille curtains and tex
tiles which give a stuffy appearance to
the room should be avoided. When dra.
peries are required to be lined, the lin,
ing. should match the curtain in color
The draperies of a room should har.
monte with the wall coverings, but
should be stronger and richer In tone
For draperies between rooms, or be.
tween the hall and a room, it is ad
yisable to sew the two separate cur
tains together 50 as to form one cur.

This beautiful and symmetrical little
cottage is one of my prize designs It
has been duplicated fifty times thruout
the United States In the last year, and
never fails to give satisfaction.
The five large rooms are all excellent,
the living room could hardly be excelled
in, much larger house. The oriel win
dow in the dining room and living room
makes a fine place for plants and adds
to the attractiveness Of the exterior as
well as the interior.
The kitchen is well equipped with cup
boards and the chambers are large with
plenty Of closets and bath. It is de-
signed to have hardwood finish and floors

To Keep Piano Keys White.

To keep piano keys clean and pre-
vent the discoloration of the ivory,
dampen a piece Of muslin with alcohol
and with it rub the keys. The. alcohol
can do no damage to the ivory, and if
it is frequently applied, the keys will
stand IL want of no other treatment:
But if they have already begun to turn
yellow, then try rubbing them with a
piece Of cotton flannel wet with cologne
water. Even old and discolored ivory
may be rejuyenated, no matter what
peabediy, viii usually restore the keys
to their original whiteness. Cotton
flannel cloths wet with saturated so,
fa{d upon the keys will remove all
stains. Care should always be taken in
the use Of such bleacher as this that
it does not touch anything from whic:h
the color Is not to be removed, for 1t
does it's work with more certainty than
H12eTRf1On.

Summer Draperies.

Whether one spends the summer in
change in furnishings during the warm
months is desirable. To Danish car
petsand draperies is almost q sacred
duty. Put away everything suggestive
Of dust catching, every useless bit Of
bric-a -brac on the; first warm day, and
the chances are that most Of the brio
a-brac at least will never be restored.
Cover the couch cushions with chintzes.
Put up the thinnest Of muslin curtains
and fill the windows with growing
things. This is the best way to enjoy
spring, and summer. also, # one re-

OPPORTUNITY FOR SUNSHINE.

OPPORTUNITY FOR SUNSHINE
Sunshine has heard Of family in
direst need to whom someone can bring
good cheer.
There are four children, aged 9, and
2, and a baby 8 months old. The father
deserted the mother and children three
months before the baby was born, leav
ing her with mortgage Of $50 on the
furniture and two months behind in
the rent. One of the Sunshiners called
at the house and found them having
hard struggle The mother said the
children were often hungry and that
she sometimes did not have even
nickel to my For skim milk for them.
Their we'll water is so poor that they
have to put oatmeal in 1t SO they can
drink it. The mother Is in great need
of nourishing food to keep up her
strength to nurse her baby and work to
supply the little the family has. She
has room with a carpet on the floor
and she says if she could get some fur
niture for it she could rent it to two
young men for Sd, thus paying half her
rent.
Who can pass on some furniture to
help this poor woman out9 If anyone
wishes to help her personally, Sunshine
will be glad to give her name or adj
dress. 81

HAPPENINGS AT THE LODGE.

11ArFIiNlNGS AT THE LODGE.
Another party of twenty-five enjoyed
the hospitality Of the Mary Davis Sun
shine Lodge last week. The members
party Of twenty five will 90 out.
They were an exceedingly happy lot
and the Forest Lake people continue
to make it pleasant for them with boat
rides and drives.
1t is an interesting sight to see the
two long tables at which are seated
the guests, all with happy, beaming
faces, especially the children, as the
good things to eat are passed around
food and plenty Of it. Sunshine intends
for one week at least, these deserving
women and children shall have suff-
gent to eat. It seems the first two
days as tho it would not be possible
to I'LL up these children, who all come
from homes where food is none too
plentiful. None of them ever needs a
titles. =
They are all so grateful and appre-
clative for what is done for them and
all are 10th to return home.
One woman thanked one of the Off
GERS of the society over and over again,
and when shown Miss Davis picture
and told she was the one to thank for
all thls, she stood looking at the pic
ture for several moments with tears
streaming, down her cheeks, and then
said God bless her, and another
said, 1t is 50 good to find rich people
who are kind to us poor.'
Sunshine only wishes that all who
have contributed towards the good
work could spend few hours at the
cottages. and see the happiness they
have helped to bring into the lives of
the hard-working women and their chill
dren. IL e. -. .s - <F
The society finds the work more ex-
pensive than it had first anticipated,
for to feed twenty-five hungry persons
every week takes a goodly sum; but
it has faith that the generous ones will
not see the season close for lack of
funds. The work is carried on entirely
by voluntary contributions, and the
only salary paid is to the matron.
It is hoped to keep. the cottages open
until the second week In September if
the weather permits, sending out ell
derby women. and those who have no
children to be kept out Of school. :
