cretonne Slips Are Among the Most
Attractive for the Furniture in Sum
mer-elve a Cool Look by Covering
All Of the WoodAsIs Pink Rose.
With Much Foliage Very Effective.
Quite the prettiest and most prac
teal method of upholstery for sum
mer houses is separate slip covers
These, IL made of cretonne and finish
ed with tfrills and rnffles. are efrec.
tive and can be so easily laundered
that they may be kept constantly
fresh without much effort on the part
Of the housekeeper.
1t is a mistake to think that sepa,
rate covers must be made of plain or
only simply figured materials. There
is no reason why the largest designs
Of roses or other flowers or even
birds, may not be used. The covers
should fit perfectly and differ from
stationary ones only in that they may
be lifted of.
For example. in one summer house
the sleeping rooms are entirely reno.
waited by covering the winter furniture.
Ror this cretonne is employed.
Big pink roses with much green
foliage form the pretty pattern for
these chambers. The covers are. so
cut they, conceal the wood, which is
heavy. walnut, not well suitedat to warm
weather. The bottom of each. chair
slip is finished with fine, fatty press
ed pleated ruffle, and the bed has q
cpver similarly made. The top turns
back to go over the pillows. On the
couch two cushions are covered. each
in plain pink and green, it being wise
always to introduce small surfaces of
plain colors among the riot of large
design.
llSome OF the willow furniture to be
bought now is not expensive and
wears we'll. The chairs are comforts
BILE and with little trouble may be
stained with a color to suit other fit
ttngs in a room. For this purpose
theer are water color stains to be ap-
piled lightly. Green in pale shade
is particularly nice FOR the warm sen.
son, and IL furniture SO treated has
cretonne cushions tied against the
backs and in the seats OF chairs the
result will be effective as we'll as SER
yiceable. Willow tables should be
made to match the chairs, and there
are also desks and foot rests to match.

Dotted swisses with tiny floral
sprigs are dainty materials for the'in-
expensive summer neglige and are fur
nished this season in delectable de-
signs and colorlngs. Often a slip Of
China silk in white or soft color is
used under the swiss and greatly en-
hances the charm of the model.
The challis are another line of ma
terials which grow in, grace as the de-
signers and dyers and weavers have
grown in skill. and, though challis is,
inexpensive, 1t is by no means a ma
terlal to, be despired Eswadays. Many
women prefer 1t to anything else for
the summer .negligee. for white, cool
and light in weight and adapted to
laundering, 1t has little more body

more comfortable on the cool gray
days.

good.looking this sumner and come in
many, attractive eolors and designs,
the main body of the material being
usually. OF some very small conven-
tional designs and more striking col
orings. The border on challls is sell

This border ran around the bottom OF

edges of the great, softly draped col

SHRED and colored chou of turquoise
