Various bleaching creams us well soaps whiten the neck as they clean. Lemon preparations are also useful, and it goes without saying that the neck should be as carefully made up when wearing an evening frock as one's face.

EATHER is not usually associ- ated with bedroom furniture, but it can irepart an oir of luxury when decorated and embossed and used for new bedroom pieces,
A large wardrobe entirely covered with cream leather is embossed and painted with a scroll design. Inside, the wardrobe shows

Dwarf wardrobes with glass tops are also covered with leather, and bedheads for divans are shaped curves to a high centre point, both the line and the decorated leather showing
