A NEW FABRIC FOR FURNISHING
Linen Looks So Smooth
When all the ingenious and artistic devices of the manufactur- ers have been considered one must always return to linen as the queen of furnishing fabrics, especially for use in hot climates. It is so cool in effect and to the touch. the patterns are so lovely, it falls in such graceful folds. Best of all it tones as no other fabric can with the newest of furnishing schemes.

Pale pinks and blues combine in these. It sounds a crude combina- tion but is exquisite. when an oat- meal shade for the walls forms the background, Keep the walls and woodwork of the oatmeal shade but have the furniture ena- melled the dellonte pink that seeen in a Neapolitan ice and match with the mosquito net. Blue taffeta will make your bedspread and cushions and blue bowls on the, dressing-table and in the window will be filled with carnations or other suitable flowers, The linen curtains are daintily sprigged with tiny pink and blue flowers and the single upholstered "chair bas loose cover of the
