The newest use for the popular flow.
cred cretonne is in draught pro.

and ia used TO prevent too great n
draught when the lower sash OF a win.
dow is opened. To make one, take
strip OF the cretonne and strip OF
aateen the width OF the window and
sew them together all round, having
first put up an interlining of stout
brown paper. Then edge the whole
thing with pretty cord making
loop OF the cord ut the two top cor
ners, by which the protector Is hung
on TO two brass hooks in the window
frame.
These draught protectors make cap
itel gifts for mon living In rooms or
at college and will be received with
much approval. For this purpose II is
better to use n smooth surface ma.
