Printed and plain voiles are especial
ly good for bedroom because one
generally has a definite color scheme
to carry out. It may be you need
a cream curtain with blue or roe
ovcrdrapc. in one room, while
canary-yellow with black would
work well in another room.
In the wash good department von
will find rheetecloth and unbleached
muslin. These two fabrics can be
had in rich cream color. They are
inexpensive and find a place in
kitchen, b, at h room and sleeping
rooms.
Cotton crepes are found in many
colors. Here it is best to confine
one's choice to w lute or cream as
crepe often fades in the sunlight
This fabric is soft and desirable for
bedrooms. Dimities make sheer eur
tains for dainty room also. These
come in checks and narrow striped
effects.
Gingham has come into its own in
the realm of curtain materials.
cushion covers, spreads and runners.
What is more dainty for a bedroom
or kitchen than a crisp dainty blue
and white check. Gingham should
find favor with the housewife for
durability in wearing qualities, fast
ness and variety in color. One can
imagine blue and white check trim
med with bands of plain blue m a
Dutch diningroom, for the summer
season. .Such would give a cool
pleasing effect.
Dignified Linens.
If the housewife wishes to go a
little deeper into her purse she can
find handsome dignified linens in
various colors both striped and
plain. This fabric is heavier than
gingham and requires no overdrapes
if used as a curtain. It may be
used as an overdrape with a light
weight material.
There arc several old but reliable
materials such as marquisettes, scrim
and dotted swiss. These are in favor
and stand the change of styles from
season to. season. Then there are
the famous chintz fabrics that find a
place in every home. Most every
housewife has learned to revel and
play with chintz. These find a
place in living room, dining room.
bedroom and have various uses other
than for curtains. Cretonnes are
almost as popular and rival chintz in
design and color.
Silk pongee is simply splendid
for curtains as its color works in
well with reds, blue, greens, browns
and other colors. Pongee finds a
place in living room, dining room as
well as bedrooms. A crocheted or
buttonhole edge of blue or pongee
makes a dainty set for a bedroom
furnished in curly maple. There are
numerous other soft silks that are
good for summer curtains such as
Japanese and China silks, silk mull
and Shantung.
lhe sheer materials should be
made with a plain hem, hemstitched.
or with a hem and series of tucks.
Cheesecloth and muslin may be
trimmed with narrow fringe on a
plain hem, or corners may be round
ed and tiny hems used with fringed
edge. Selvages should be romoved
from all wash fabrics before curtains
are hemmed as the selvage puckers
and shrinks in laundering and causes
the curtains to hang crooked. Un
bleached muslin is interesting if
trimmed with "bands of cretonne or
plain colored materials. Some
dainty materials as dotted swiss or
dimity may be made attractive by
use of narrow edging. Allow for
shrinkage in making' curtains, turn
hem double or run an extra tuck,
hang curtains about one inch above
the window sill.

SelectingRugs for
to the
More and more the rug that can be washed is coming to the front. There are some excellent rugs made
of the best flax fiber that can be washed satisfactorily. Of course, this washing must be done by experts, but it
is a cheaper way of cleaning a rug than dry cleaning. For nurseries and children's bedrooms these Washable
rugs are the best selection.
Many persons seem to hold the belief that a good oriental rug looks well anywhere. But, of course, this
is rash judgment. Oriental rugs should be selected with as close attention to the color scheme and decorative
effect of the room they are to be placed in as any other sort of rug. In some rooms a rug of plain tone is really
to be preferred to the oriental rug.
The dining room rug is the most
following the French custom of leaving the dining room bare. When there are children who are allowed to
eat in the dining room this is especially desirable. If you have a rug it should be chosen so that it may be
shifted about from time to time. If your room permits, select a square rug and then it may be placed in four
different positions, thus keeping any one part from receiving the brunt of the wear. An oblong rug, of course,
can be put in only two positions.
Perfectly round rugs are an innovation, or rather they are a revival of past styles in house decorating.
A piece of red carpet in circular form bound with heavy carpet tape at the edge is chosen for the floor covering of
a room furnished in fine old Georgian furniture, with red tapestry covers on the chairs. The round rug can be
placed in an almost infinite number of positions. That is, it may be turned a bit every time it is cleaned, so that
no one place need receive any more wear than any other. The round carpet would be an excellent selection for
an klurfciive dining room,
