Figs. 1 and 5 are perspective detail views The part 14; is substantially L-shaped in of two parts of my improved bracket, which form and comprises a comparatively narse I employ. row arm. 2 whi h is adap d o be passed ice through apertures 26 in the opposite side a, walls of the outwardly pressed portion 29 and 30 as clearly shown in Fig. 1 of the drawing. The arm 27 of the part 14 is reinforced and strengthened where 1t 101115 the arm by a downwardly directed enlarged V-shaped port-ion 81 as clearly shown in Fig. 4 of the drawing.

In the use of my improved brackets, it will be understood that the parts 13 and 14 will'bemade up in lefts and rights and constitute a pair and in assembling the parts thereof, and mounting the same in posi- 7 tion, the parts '13 are-first mounted in con nection with the parts 12 and after which the parts l t are mounted in connection 7 with the parts 12 as hereinbefore set out and the separate brackets thus assembled are mounted in connection with the frame work of the window or the top plate 10 thereof, it being understood that the brackets are adjusted to the desired position to receive and support a shade roller 24 of predetermined length and the parts 1 1 are adju'stabl mounted in the parts 12, or may be exten ed laterally in opposite directions to support curtain poles of the deslred length.

"With my improved device, it will be apparent that the m'arring or defaclng of the woodworlrof a window frame or the hke, isobviated and I provide a simple and yet strong and durable method of mounting shade rollers and curtain poles in con- 7 nection with a window frame or other support and while I have shown certain details of construction for carrying my invention into eifect and have lllustrated a specific use of'my invention, it will .be understood that I am not necessarily limited in theserespects and various changes in and modifications of the construction herein shown and described may be made with- ,in' the scope of the appended claims without departing from the spirit of my invention or sacrificing its advantages,
