SIMPLE METHOD OF
 REGULATING CURTAINS $

Many new homes have French win dows. which swing out instead of slid ing up and down. Lace curtains for windows of this sort are not practical and the one ordinarily used is called a Venetian curtain made of q silk ma terial and drawn up with 8 cord
 The usual method is to have a hook on the sIde of the window to which the cord is attached to hold the curtain at any desired height. much more simple plan is to get the exact weight of the curtain and place inside the tassel a bag of lead of equal weight. This will allow the curtain to be low cred or raised at will and does away with the hooks, securing the curtain by establishing the balance.

Money Conditions In West
An official of one Of the uptown
banks, who has just returned from an
extended trip through the Middle West.
said yesterday that money conditions
there continue on about the same basis
as for some time past. -.
THE demand for funds he said,
''is governed largely by the changes
which are noted In commercial and in

REIMBURSEMENT Of any strain during the
period of autumn and the reaction in
business as well as the alteration OF
plans respecting future production are
playing an important part in the finan-

Such factors have naturally les

was not anticipated few months ago,

duced both in commodities as we'll as
