FOR THE BEDROOM.
PRETTY THINGS ARE OFFERED
IN PROPULSION.
Knitted Bed-Spread Is Coming into
Favor-Cover for the Pillows
Bolster Rolls for Furnishings
of CEYtonne.

Various materials for making bed
spreads may be found in the shops
in the heavy dimities, cretonnes, den
inns, art tickings and linen ta@etas.
Some of the newest spreads are of
white taffetas printed with different
flowers to harmonic with the fur
nishings of the room. \ spread with
a border of cretonne to match the
border on the curtains, and even the
wall paper, with trellis or border OF
the same design, is very attractive.
Band-embroidered linen spreads are
also quite the fashion. They the
beautiful as well as durable. There
is nothing prettier than bed cov-
cring entirely of white. For those
many new patterns in lace and net
coverings are shown.
With the return of old-fashioned
furniture, the knitted bed-spread is
also somewhat in favor. AS a rule,
the work is done in squares that are
fastened together and then finished
with a border of plain knitting or
crocheting. This sort of spread is
durable, but it is very heavy to laun-
der
A small spread for the pillows is
just as necessary as the large one.
Very often the bed-spread is made
long enough to cover the pillows.
For those who do not care for the
old-style pillow sham, a cover is
made of an oblong strip to match
the spread. When this sort of cover
ing is used, the pillows should be
laid fiat on the bed. If one has plenty
of room the pillows may be stored
through the day, and bolster roll
of pasteboard covered with material
to match the spread, can be substi-
tuted. These bolster rolls, however,
are used rather when the bed is
dressed in cretonnes than when in
the simple white.

Had Church Roof Fixed.

Miles Finlen, the rich Montana cop
per miner, visited some relatives in
Bay City, Mich, recently. He attend
ed services in an old wooden church,
and while there a rainstorm came up.
The roof leaked, and some water fell
on Finlen's neck After the services
had ended he asked one of the church
officials: why in blazes don't you
give people decent place to worship
in?" Il suspect it's because we haven't
the money" was the suggestive reply.
Next afternoon material for a new
roof began to arrive in front of the
church and Finlen walked into the pas
tors study with check for $3.50.
Fix up your old roof" is all he said.

last year." said the editor, "she was
invited to make an address at a GER

oversight, was put far down on the

chairman, a rather stupid person, in
troduced before her some speakers
who were not on the programme at
all.
In short, it was close on to IL
o'clock when the chairman, with a
pleasant smile, bowed and said;
Mrs. Craigie, the eminent author
of Some Emotions and a Moral will
now give us her address.
Mrs. Craigie rose and said, calmly:

LONGEST and Oldest Tunnel.

The near completion of the Penn
sylvania tunnel reminds the American
Israelite of the oldest known tunnel
in the world, that of Shiloah, near Je-
rusalem 1t was used as an acque-
duct. The famous inscription, dis
covered a few years ago, celebrates
the first meeting of the diggers from
both sides. Newspapers did not APP
pear in those days, and so the event
cannot be exactly dated, but it most
probably took place under King Heze-

of civilization among the Jews at a
