Have a Good Bed, In Farm and Fireside a contributor, writing a practical article about mat. tresses and other provisions for beds, makes the following general comment: “In furnishing a home the housewife should give most careful thought to the beds and their equipment. We spend at least a third of our lives in bed, and it is worth while to make that third pleasant and refreshing.

There are the full skirts, flounces, yokes and high waist lines Dolly Vardeiw styles, which have not been seen for many seasons, appear with these styles of former days, and pare considered as attractive as they ever were. In silks they are particu. larly charming and are becoming very popular. The reason given for the re turn of these old-fashioned styles is the increased use of American made goods and the working out of Ameri can styles to fit them.
