some breakfast

Alden. Then, with sudden thought

very elegantly, as he disappeared in
the direction of the woodpi:e. In about
Sve minutes he reappeared. I'm ready
now for that breakfast" he announced.
"Have You sawed the wood in such a
short time?". asked Mrs. Alden, coming
again into the kitchen.
Yes, madam he answered. Then,
between huge mouthfuls: Excuse me,
madam, for correcting you, but you
should say. Have you seen the

WEAVING SILK PORTIERES.
Cut Pieces Half an Inch Wide -
Sew as for Carpet Rags-Have
Some Solid Colors.

Extremely attractive silk portieres
can be made by any beauty lover in
the following simple manner. Start
with any old silks you may have been
collecting-neckties, old silk waists,
scraps-anything in the silk line. the
brighter the better. Cut the pieces
about one-half inch wide and sew as
for carpet rags. Sew all your solid
colors together, making one or more
balls of red, of blue, of black, or what
ever colors you have. Next sew all
your odds and end together as they
come, forming hit or miss ball. You
will need a pound of silk to a yard of
curtain
Next send to the weavers, who fur
nish fine red warp and tinsel to suit
your taste. If you wish to dictate
how your curtains shall be striped
give explicit directions, or if you pre-
fer, they will do the stripping for you
according to their more experienced
ideas. The threads of the warp are
about one-half inch apart. Unless 9TH
erwise directed, your curtains will
generally be woven about 21ax2 yards
The length or width will be varied,
however, according to your directions.
Another matter of taste is the
fringe. Your curtains can be finished
plain, or if you so order, the weavers
will slit the sides between each
thread of warp for several inches
from the bottom of the curtain, form
ing fringe resembling chenille. This
fringe is quite effective and durable,
though plain finish will, of course,
wear even better. The finished por-
finish not to be procured in boughten
curtains, without considerable ex-
pense.-Farm and Home.

ATTRACTIVE CURTAINS.
The Soft Materials So Much More
Artistic Than Stiff Lace Cur
tains and Inexpensive.

Nothing improves a house so much
as the finishing touches of dainty
white swiss and soft nets. These give
a dainty and flmy effect to the win
dows that is most charming and restful
to the eyes. The glare from outside is
mellowed and the folds give soft shad-
ows, which add greatly to the appear
ance of the room insided. Why, when
we can buy such a variety of these
dainty draperies, is there such a rage
for the ugly and cheap lace curtains :?
They do not soften the lines of the
windows and they do look nice when
they are up, but they do look common
place, and any woman attempting to
make room artistic would fail in her
plan by adding the finishing touches
of such curtains. They have some adj
vantages l know, 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 then take on is
impossible for the home that aims to
be artistic
Think of a little summer sitting
room with white paint and clean fresh
paper and dainty summer rugs. Soft
cream madras, ranging from 35 to 70
cents a yard, could be made up at
home, either as sash curtains, or if the
window requires it, for inner curtains,
and would make such room a dainty
pleasing apartment that would please
anyone with artistic perceptions.
