OMAHA June 50.-Judge Lindsey of

Omaha friends of the movement have

Dainty Fads for Bedrooms.

One Of the very latest fads among
women who take pride in the daintiness
Of their homes, especially their sleeping
rooms, is the garden room. It is
not a flower garden; it may not have a
single real bloom in it, but it is none
the less attractive for that.
Suppose it is to be violet bed; the
walls are. tinted. in pale lavender and
the curtains are either white or laven-
der, preferably the former, with violet
ribbons to hold them back. The bed is
ured lawn or other dainty material, the
figures to be nothing more than clus-
tiers Of violets.. The bolster roll is of
the same material and at each end are
tied clusters Of artificial ,violets with
ribbon to tone with them.
The soft silk, or silkolene, coverlet
which is rolled up at the foot of the
bed must be made by the girl herself
Tor they cannot be purchased. It is
made from cotton sachet and the silk
and 1t need not be very large. In be.
tween the layers of cotton, spread a
generous quantity of violet sachet, being
CAREFUL to see that it is placed so that
it won't sift thru. Then, catch the
cotton here and there before the Gov,
erlng Is put on. Tuft the comforter
with deeper shade of violet and bind
it in violet satin ribbon. -
On the dressing table there is a violet
colored cover and a hatpin holder made
from glass test tube and violet ribbon
with a tassel or two to match. A hair.
pin holder is made to correspond: it
consists OF nothing but a small glass
jar purchased at anay department store
and covered with violet ribbon. The
handle is loop Of ribbon. The pin
