Linen, embroidered or stenciled spreads are fashionable just now. Some have appliqued floral patterns. Others have taken the form of the

- The candlewick spreads are rather more expensive than in the old en days, which does not seem to affect their purchase by those who have the
old four-post beds upon which to put them. In one instance, a woman had one of the spreads dyed a soft willow green, and the effect was charming'.'
and quite original. . . - 5
Silk spreads are considered economical by many. They are cleaned by dipping in gasoline, which does not fade their tolor or affect. the' em-: '
