at the thought and her conscience was
as clear as the blue sky. For years
she had put aside such bits and pieces
Of small coin as could be squeezed out
of an income frequently described to
Alice as "too small to be SGeD with the
naked eye," moving frugally from one
foreign pension to another as advan-
tages waxed or waned, practicing such
heart -breaking economies as only an
impoverished woman of gentle birth
can conceive and execute, yet through
It all maintaining a cheerful hope that
the future --often a remote future—
might have something very pleasant
up its sleeve, if not for herself, then
for Alice.
The hope was now cryatallised and
the future had become the actual pres
ent. They were to have t-wo months
in Borclighera at the height of the
spring season; two months at the Mi-
raosa. Palace, accompanied by two
trunlefals of Parisian clothes and the
promise of fine weather. February
was Just merging into March and it
would be nearly May before they trail-
ed back to the pension in Florence
which was the very cheapest of its
kind Mrs. Camay had yet discovered.
Two months of calculated extrava-
gance andelexury ahead of them, and
could tell—it might dna end
there.
"What made you think of going to
Boedighera?" Alice asked as they
walked briskly in the wake of their
luggage for the Customs examination.
Her mother replied vaguely: "Oh, I
don't know. I was there once about a
year before you were born. It's a
delightful little place, and, of coarse,
the Itah'an. exchange . . ."
"Was it on your honeymoon, mum-
sey darling?"
Jean Camay's delicate face flushed
and her eyes were a little misty. She
looked like a girl thinking of her
lover.
"Well, yes—I suppose you would
call it a honeymoon," she said.
The prosaic Cusnis interfered at
this point. A trunk and one of the
dressing bags had to be aliened and
Mrs. Camay was secretly perturbed
over a broken box of French cigarettes
which she had debated whether to de-
clare or not to declare, arid was now

with a slightly curved edge finished
with a bit of nagrow drapery fringe,
though if the plain valance is used it
must be cut so that the pattern is
alike at each window. Some patterns
can be used crosswise for the valance,
and these are best if the fitted sort is
desired. A combination of little plaits
and plain sections is good, and if your
pattern has a desiga with bunches of
flowers or other decided figures it will
be lovely hung in this way.

Pongee curtains made with inch -and -

rods are stunning, though cotton erepe
can be used in the same way fit much
less expense. Phyllis decorated a big
room with beamed ceiling and rough
plaster -walls in Elia manner and the
result was delightful.
