STRIPED CRETONNE FOR THE BUNGALOW

country house living room is going to
have curtains and chair covers of this
blue, black and tan striped cretonne,
used with a deep blue rug, some pieces
of old. beautifully polished mahogany,
and lamp shades of deep blue printed
silk. These shades are merely squares
of the silk, bordered with narrow
black braid, and black silk tassel
swings from each corner of the square,
when it is thrown over the foundation
shade which is of orange colored cbif-
fon. The orange does not show by
day but gives a soft glow through the
thin blue silk cover when the lamp is
lighted.
