.To all whom it may concern.-

Be it known that we, HENRY C. SCHMIDT and DANIEL W. THUMA, both residents of Oregon, in the county of Holt and State of Missouri, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Curtain-Fixtures; and we do hereby declare that the following is a full,

clear, and exact description of the invention,

which will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same, reference being had to the accompanying draw ing, which forms a part of this specification, and which represents aperspective View of our improved curtain-fixture and shade-bracket without the curtain-rod and having the shade roller shown in dotted line.

This invention relates to curtaiu-fixtures and shadebrackets; and it consistsin thcini proved construction and combination of parts, as will be hereinafter more fully described, and pointed outin the claim.

Referring to the accompanying drawing, A represents the lintel of a window-frame; B B, two screw-eyes secured therein; D, a bar having brackets O C secured upon its ends and provided with slots E E, which fit upon the screw-eyes B B and retain the bar and brackets in position. Each of the brackets G O is pro (N0 model.)

vided with a bearing, 13, for the trunnions G of the roller I-I. After the slots in the bar have been slipped over the screw-eyes they are turned so as to stand transversely to the slots and prevent the bar from coming off. The straight portion of a hook, N, is put through the ends M of each eye, so that its middle portion will project over the shaderoller and its outer end will form a supporting-hook for the curtain-rod.

WVe claim- In a curtain-fixture and shade-bracket, the combination of screws upon the lintel of a window-frame having sockets in their flat -heads,a bar having shade-brackets and formed 'with slots for the reception of the heads of the screws, and hooks having straight innerends fitting in the sockets and having outwardlyprojectiug hooks for supporting a curtain-rod, as and for the purpose shown and set forth.

In testimony that we claim the foregoing as our own we have hereunto affixedpur signatures in presence of two witnesses.
