Not only the humble brothers and

So you will probably not wear real

But bows were worn in the
Renaissance. though hlf‘dly ever in

arably associated with the produc-
tion of ribbons. Where there are

BUILT-IN FURNITURE
T is an interesting situation that

of the house in which we live

when we mm-e from one house to
another. More and more houses
are coming to contain as part of
their permanent fixtures articles
that were once carried about from
one house to another when their
occupants moved.
Permanent wash stands set up
by the plumber have about taken
the place of the old-fashioned
wash stand that was a part of the
bed set. Set laundry tubs have
taken the place of the tube that
had to be lifted every time they
were used. Electric lightning flx~

lamps that were part of the mov-

things attached to one‘s house.
moving days are less popular. The
more of your furniture hunched

you become to the house yourself.
One young woman whose dream

real beauty for forty dollars.
What sort of buffet could she buy
for that amount?
Builtein furniture is especially
desirable in the children‘s rooms
and in the nursery. Shelves of
drawers that are part of the wood
work offer much space and few
crevices for the collection of dust.
A low. fairly broad window seat
in the children's room or nursery
will do away with most of the
chairs.
