IDEA FOR WINDOW DRESSING
Easement Scheme Of Decoration 10
One Of the Neatest and Most
Servicea3Ie Possible.

One of the Ueatest and prettiest
ways of dressing the window of a
room in which it is not desirable to
have flowing draperies is to use the
easement scheme of decorations. For
this purpose there comes a specially
sheer and fine cotton material called
easement cloth through which the
light shines. although the interior of
the room is shielded from outside
eyes, but a similar charming effect
may be produced by cotton voile. by
Chinese or wash silk: none of which
materials is costly, ghe arrangements
OF the drapery is simple 1t is SHRED
scantily at both It's ends upon fine
sliding rods Of brass which fit into
groves at top and bottom of the case
ment if it be a full length French win.
dow, and against the sliding case
ments, if the window is of the Ameri-
can type. Another advantage of this
scheme of window dressing is the ease
with which the draperies may be
Numbered, for, being straight, guilt
less of ruftles and always unstarched
the merest tryo may wash, iron and
readjust them.
