Window draperies are now ar
ranged so that the window is framed
by the hangings. When there are two
windows close together the drapery
often frames the two so that one wide
opening is suggested. The height of
windows Is also reduced by modern
hangings, rather than exaggerated as
was the case with the long, sweeping
lace curtains of the Victorian period
This modern framed effect is accom-
pHshed by narrow, dark hangings at
either side of the window and a
straight or gathered valance across
the top, these draperies being hung
from a separate rod and the lace or
net curtains falling beneath, close TO
the pane. The heavier hangings

The craft Of house decoration and
furnishing has taken tremendous
strides during the last decade. A
lack Of money Is now no excuse for
inartistic surroundings, for even the
most inexpensive fabrics for deeora-
tive use come in charming and refined
patterns and colorings, and every
where there is a movement towards
less ornate effects, and simpler, more
artistic lines and color harmonies.
The horrors of the early Victorian
era have passed out OF the memory
of US. The last dreadful carved wal
nut bureau has been banished to the
reeesses of the attic, the last cro-
cheted tidy, the last plush lambre-
quin, the last garnet red sofa and wax
floral piece covered with glass-they
have all mercifully found their wav

have now soft toned rugs in wonder

antiques, roomy comfortable furni-
tuTe with simple, fine lines and drap-
cries which even in the least costly OF

things of real charm and beauty.

The latest addition to the mission
furniture is the round card table with
four chairs which ft under the table
so that the whole set of furniture
takes up the least possible room. The
chairs have low backs and the seats
are heart shaped, tapering to a point

which makes an attractive addition TO
the drawing room is the revolving
piano chair. The upholstered tapestry

base of mahogany, with slender
curved legs.
The wing chair has almost super
seeded the erstwhile adored Morris
chair in popular favor. The wing
chair has extensions which come out
at either side Of the back for four or
FIVE inches, making cosy corners into
(which one may snuggle in all sorts of
comfortable positions. These wing
chairs are procurable in various
woods and with cushions OF every
known variety from expensive leather
TO cotton tapestry stuff. In stately
rooms the William and Mary wing
chairs of very dark unpublished oak
with cane back and seat in the same
dark brown color are exceedingly ap-
propriate. These William and Mary
chairs are wide and roomy and the
strong, simple carvings and sugges-
ton of age-darkened wood are most
artistic.
