The Unusual in Table Linen 
(Continued from page 181) 
the edges finished with a narrow hem, as 
was the tablecloth. Such a set is inex¬ 
pensive and easy to make, since it is all 
done with a coarse thread. 
Cross-stitch cloths and napkins are al¬ 
ways attractive, especially when the pat¬ 
tern is compact and the stitches small. 
They go especially well in Colonial 
dining-rooms. 
In the shops are being shown hand- 
woven linens from Russia decorated with 
red designs set in bands. They prove 
serviceable for tea or the light supper. 
The conventional pink and blue flowered 
china requires a damask of smooth tex¬ 
ture, so, in the event of our luncheon or 
breakfast sets not being of a sturdier 
make and design, it is advisable to keep 
to the ordinary damask. Among the at¬ 
tractive damask covers is one blocked in 
yellow and white, others have blue 
borders. These are especially appropriate 
for tea in summer on the porch. Little 
weights attached to the corners will pre¬ 
vent the wind from curling them up or 
blowing them away. 
For a reception, a filet or open-work 
cloth laid over a colored silk damask gives 
a rich effect. Especially luxurious is it 
when the damask is yellow, the china 
gold, and white and gilt candlesticks are 
used. Which is another way of saying 
that color is more and more being used in 
table linen. _ 
A Solution of Cold-Frame 
Inconveniences 
W HEN the calendar and the annual 
crop of horticultural catalogs an¬ 
nounce that spring is . really not so far 
away as it seems, the soils-and-seeds en¬ 
thusiast without a greenhouse is prone to 
long for something between a hotbed and 
out in the open. There are flats to be pre¬ 
pared and soil to be dried and pulver¬ 
ized ; seeds are to be unpacked and planted 
early; innumerable little fussings and fix¬ 
ings suggest themselves but retire before 
[lie boisterous and inconvenient conditions 
obtaining about the average home garden 
at this time of year. 
It was to make comfortable and pleasant 
these necessary pre-season activities that 
the glass-fronted workroom illustrated on 
this page was devised—a cross, in effect, 
between a greenhouse and a cold-frame,
