They are edged with heavy antique lace, and cf course aro nut tucked in, but hang really to the floes on e.ch side. Other simple spreads are of dotted muslin, lin- ed with selisis and edred with lace. Mfadra and the cheaper Mikado cloth are alto used for this purpose. These are trimmed with a narrow tasseled fringe. handsome spreads are made of silk or satin, embroidered and heavily fringed. (then are made of butcher's linen, em- bellished with drawn work at the edges, through which colored ribbons are run and tied in tows at each corner. They are still further adorned with embroid- ery, generally a powdering of some simple design, executed in outline stitch with fl ..a, which will not fade in wash - This is a new fashion, and prevails among people who are always ready to adopt any new thing ; but there are plenty of old—fashioned and substantial folks who cling to the punt white bed - fittings.
