TX^INDOWS, being the most conspicuous spots in 
* a room, can do much to enrich or to mar the 
charm of your decorative scheme. 
And the dress of a window begins with the shade. 
Costly drapes, carefully chosen to blend with the, fur¬ 
nishings, lose half their effectiveness when hung;^ agaihst 
a background of faded or discolored window shades, or 
shades unsightly with cracks and pinfioles. 
And nothing will more completely rob a room of that 
touch of clean comfort than window shades that are 
out of color harmony with their surroundings. 
You can, at very little cost, literally transform a 
room, lending it a new, fresh beauty—with window 
shades of distinctive and durable Brenlin. ^ 
Brenlin is quite different from the mesh-like materiaL 
in the usual window shade, which requires a chalk or 
clay filling to give it weight. Brenlin is a heavy, closely 
woven fabric much like linen, and needs no filling to 
make it smooth and opaque. 
The ordinary window shade cannot stand the strains 
of constant rolling and unrolling, of whipping winds, of 
exposure to rain and sun. Its brittle filling loosens and 
falls out, leaving cracks and pinholes. Sun and rain 
discolor it, and soon you are faced with unsightly win¬ 
dows which no drapes can hide nor make beautiful. 
Brenlin quality is woven into the fabric—not filled 
in nor painted on. Thus a Brenlin window shade out¬ 
lasts two or three ordinary shades. It resists fading 
by the sun, defies discoloring by water, and, strong and 
flexible, it hangs straight and smooth for a long lifetime 
of wear. 
In the wide range of soft, rich Brenlin colors you will 
find those hues which will successfully complete the 
color scheme of any room in your home. And especially 
see Brenlin Duplex, made with a different color on each 
side to blend with both interior and exterior. 
The name Brenlin perforated or embossed on the 
edge of every Brenlin window shade, has become the 
stamp of the most highly skilled shade makers of today. 
It marks a window shade of durable, long-wearing 
fabric, hand-finished and colored for permanent beauty.

ordinary way.
