Some time ago, "Hodier. the great French weaver, made a type of material front schappe silk that he called Toile Annan, that was really a reconstruction of material formerly -woven in ancient Annam, but it was only available in natural shades of grey, erran and beige.

In these days of necessary economy, Jun- cheon and dinner sets for the table that will in away with the white tablecloth bare indeed a boon to any housewife. One of the most effective as well as durable material to make them out of oneself is Basque finen, particularly heavy, well-wovita type of linen that is made by the peasant-in the Busque part of France on the Pyrenees border. With so many English people spending their holidays at Biarritz or St. Jean de Luz, it must be very easy to bring back a few metres of this precious material or ask som friend to bring it back for It is not expensive, is everlasting in wear and, as it is woven in a variety of check leaigns in pleasing colours, it is capable of lending a note of origin ality to the colour scheme of any dining room. There are sets to ix: bought of it, but if you prefer to make them your- alf, all you need do is to buy the neess cry number of metres (it is made very wide so that one width is sufficient for cloth for an ordinary-sized table) and either finish cloth and serviettes with, frayed edges or a hemstitched border. The background of the material is n kind of unbleached colour and in this are woven cross stripes in blue red and yellow shades, outlined in white or black, the effect of which is most charming. The housewife who adopts a cloth or amal mats of this Basque, tail will Boon realise what a tremendous gronomy it enables her to make in the weakly washing bill, and the family is bound to be delighted with the pleasant colour scheme that is art before them each meal.
