Window shades are of particular
Importance to a home. Owing to their
position they affect the appearance
of the exterior quite as much as that
of the rooms within. The decorative
value of the shades entities them to
much more care in their choice then
they generally receive. for the tend
ency is to select whatever happens to
be most convenient without any par
ticular regard for it's fitness. In
their choice there are only very few
fundamental rules to be observed and
If they be obeyed the selection can
hardly fail Of being successful. i
There are several fabrics upon the
market which may be used for window
shades. Many people prefer the thick
and somewhat heavy material known
as Opaque" which very effectually
excludes the light the fabric being of
cotton upon which there is applied a
substance which closely resembles
paint. The more popular fabric, how
ever, is that known as "Holland'-a.
variety of linen which is exceedingly
stiff but which may be turned over
and hemmed upon the edges, as is
usually done. Either of these ma
terials is to be had in a great assert
required for almost any use need not
be difficult to find.
Fashions change in regard to win
dow shades. At one time it was con-
sidered correct to have decorative bor-
ders in color and gilt painted or stem
cilled across the bottom of the shades
upon the side facing the street, but
present usage DEGREES that the Shades
be VIII DIV devoid of ornament unless If
be a narrow linen fringe across the
bottom or simple tassel at the cen
ter, either fringe or tassel being of
the color of the shade itself.
The choice of a color for shades
should be governed by the colors with
which the windows are surrounded. It
is an axiom in decoration that vio-
lent contrasts should be avoided, and
therefore the exterior of the house
is more pleasing if the shades at the
windows be of a color which is not
too great contrast with the color
of the walls themselves. Should the
| home be of brownstone the shades at
! the windows might be of a soft shade
of brown, or if the residence be of
frame and painted gray or buff the
shades may be of a very pale gray or
! very deep cream and be in complete
agreement with their surroundings
In like manner the effect of shades
upon the Interior must be considered
Nothing could be more out of keep
ing and Objectionable to good taste
than the use of shades of white or
some very light color in a room pan
elled with dark oak or having it's walls
covered with "a very dark paper. In
ksuch case the shaded windows would

High collars that suggest the military

but there are many '.c men who do not
find them comfortable . I'd there are many
occasions when cooler neck finish is de-
slrable. This blouse is convertible, and
it can be worn with the collar high as
shown on the figure or rolled fiat as sug-
gested in one of the small views. The
sleeves, too, can be made long with cuffs,
or in three-quartcr length and finished

material is crepe de chine and the

MAGGIE PEPPER
NEXT POLL PLAY

The Poll Players are scoring a hit
at Polls, Hartford, this week in Ba-
yard Veilier's within the Law"
The minimum wage problem, the
police department and the new and
dangerous Maxim silencer are ex-
plotted in Mr.. Veilier's play,
which was the inspiration for the
influx of "crook'' dramas which have
followed in it's successful wake.
Next week the players will present
Rose Stahls great success, Maggie
Pepper" production which although
it proved one of Miss Stahl's big hits,
has never before been presented in
Hartford. Maggie Pepper is
product of a large New York depart
ment store. She started in as a cash
girl. and by hard work and natural
ability has risen until she holds an
important place as assistant buyer in
this institution. At the opening Of
the play there is a vacancy for the
place OF buyer in the women's coat
department and Maggie has her
heart set on obtaining this place. She
is disappointed. Next Maggie loses
her place In the store and everything
looks dreary to her, but her natural
optimism reasserts itself, even though
she is opposed by powerful interests
and in the end she wins. The players
will have ample opportunity to dis
play their artistic accomplishment
There will, as usual, be matinees and
evening performances throughout the
week with the usual souvenir matt
nees on Monday and Thursday.

BICYCLE SPECIALITY
FINE AT KEENEY'S

Bud Snyder and his mirth- provok-
ing associates, who are providing a
bicycle speciality as one of the spe-
cial features at Keeneys this week,
have one of the most amusing num-
bers that has been given here in q
long time. It is big laugh-getter
and the audience seemingly enjoys it
greatly. Snyder is sensational
cyclist. He does a number of re-
markable stunts on the wheel, win
ming special praise for his wonderful
stair climbing. It is the two come
dams in the act, however, that make
the turn SO successful. They are clev-
er pantomimists. Their style is orig
inal and so different from that of the
comedian usually associated with BIZ
cycle and acrobatic specialties that
they make most favorable impress
sion. The act in itself is well worth
the admission charged. It is one of
those specialties rarely found on the
bill of three-a-day vaudeville house.
Clever coon shouters and minstrel
fun-makers are the young ladies, who
are on the program as Two Girl sin
Cork. This pair furnishes consider
able amusement and entertains salts
factorily with rag time song hits. They
also give a revue Of the latest ball
room dances exhibiting much clever
ness in each number attempted.
The Great Chiyo does a lot Of bal
ancing and juggling that is new to To-
cal theatergoers This clever little
Jap has a repertoire that is exception
ally extensive. His work pleases the
patrons of the theater and he gets lib
eral applause every day.
The Farrells have a clever song
and dance specially and the Three
Boyds offer a musical entertainment
that swould be hard to duplicate,
much less to excel. They have a good
collection of songs and they render
them WELL They also play Irish and
Scotch instruments in pleasing fash
ion and do some novel dancing that
goes well.
The Pathe Weekly will be on the
Keeneyscope program again tonight.
This weeks show is of a high or
der and it well merits the patronage
of all lovers of high class vaudeville
Every act is of first class calibre

Selection of Window Shades Is
Important AS They Affect Homes
Both As to Interior and Exteror-Volent Contrasts
Should Be Avoided and All Windows Should
Appear AS Having Been Fitted.

have the effect of patches of white
cut from the dark-hued walls, and the
result would be complete discord
Much the same disagreeable contrast
would be the effect of using dark COL
ored shades at the windows of a room
decorated and furnished in very light
colors, where the windows would have
the appearance of dark spots against
the light walls. Where the exterior of
the house demands the use of shade
which will completely ruin the har-
mony of the interior the logical re-
suit must be compromise upon a
neutral shade which will agree with
both the exterior and the interior, or
else the use of two sets of shades,
the inner set selected with a view to
preserving the color harmony of the
interior.
Whatever be the variety of the ma
terial or the color used for the window
shades, it is most important that from
the outside of the window all the win
dows appear fitted with shades of the
same kind. This will give the effect
of balance, or uniformity, which will
add to the appearance of the house
while if shades of several different
colors be used the effect will be that
of discord and confusion, which should
be avoided.
Window shades are not frequently
renewed, and since they remain in use
for many years it would be econ omy
of the truest kind to select them with
considerable thought and care and
with particular reference to their sur
roundings.

Household Notes

When little girls petticoats sewed
on body waists need frightening, sim
ply rip the shoulder seams, add the
necessary piece Of muslin and button
it over again.
The average time allowed for boil
ing fish is ten minutes to the pound,
but If the fish is very thick, as salm on
or cod, nearly twice this time may
be needed.
Don't worry about the ink stain on
the rug. If you can possibly shift
the rug so that the sun will shine on
the spot for a part of each day, the
ink will fade out.
