In the Bedroom

The Idea: Colored bed-linen.

The Motive: To make beds more attractive.

The Story: Certain Manhattan dry-goods stores have copied the notion, originated by Frenchmen, of colored bedclothes. They are a success. Distinctions of taste have crept into the choice of bed-linen. For small babies, pink or tea-colored sheets are recommended. For men of fashion, blue sheets are most suitable. Red-haired brides may have scarlet or green linen laid upon their couches. For oldsters a black sheet is in the best taste. Now, at Wm. Coulson & Sons, Jas. McCutcheon & Co., Mosse Inc. (in Manhattan), those who so desire may buy sheets in pastel shades as well as more solid colors.
