Be itknown that I, HENRY B. TURNER, a States of America, and a resident of. Huntington, county of Cabell,

`State of West Virginia, have invented certain4 I new and useful Improvements in Shade-Fix-4 tures, of which the following is aull and clear specification; reference being had-'to ythe aclY companying drawings, in which- Figure 1 1s a perspective view showing my fixture as 'it appears when 'applied to a wineing, shortened ,The object-of this inventionis toprovide windowfframe' without. marring thesame pinow-rames, as more fully hereinafter set ort I To the accomplishment ofthislobjectand invention consists ofthe artsl and; ltionof arts hereinateriiillly described, Vand -partic arly pointed Qutf in lthe"appended drawings," .forming apart of speci-f,

Each plate A is provided at its outer en d with a vertical ange a', which carries a pair of headed rivets or pins a2, which extendfthrough, a pairoiguide-slots 11, formed s v N plate B, ext'endin thefpl'at'e A, as weli as e.; waidly therefro'1z',f1its back;74A Ward-exte a g part bein providedwithfan ligf On each of the'.- "late as'r g plate C, provi ed at4 B ismounted a sli the reception of the.curta in pol e. @This plat rear edges of ,the 'plates 'respective vertical edge. .byscrewingu the thunjjrb 'projecting-en s ofjthe 'odsIEjthe two brack- 'racketfA carried bythe late C and working in`a horizontal slot in p ate B, by which arrangement Patented May s, 190e. p i

shade-bracket, to the rod by means of a pair of nuts et; It Will be observed that to apply the vice to a' window-1framefthe", plates A`4 are placed againstthe face 'of the window-frame, at opposite sides thereoftvviththe serrated uts n on4 the outer 'ets' are idrawn toward eachother, and the teeth p are forced into. the woodwork ofthe 'fi-ame, aportionof the frame being shown at W 1n-F1g. 2. In this"way-'thev brackets are C1fmlped to the ramewithout the use of eX- "traneous fastening devices Aand in such manner that the frame will not be marred. It will be observed also that ythe device has a suf-Iiciently Wide ran e of adjustment to permit it to be applied to grames of various widths. It be observed, further, that the shadebracketsmay be adjustedto accommodate shades of different vwidths and when so ad- 'Ljusted may be rigidly but movably locked in position? =I t .wi]l 'be observed also that the t htening of the thumbsnuts on the threade rods not only draws the two brackets to- .gether to embed the teeth p in the frame, but

also clamps the two mam plates of each bracket together. i i

Having thus fully described my invention,

v WhatI claim, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, isn l1.

vI'ICI ed rod mounted in each of the inain brackets and provided with an adjusting-nut on its outer end, nuts on each threaded rod adapted to engage the adjacent shade-bracket and hold it in place7 and a chain connecting the inner ends of the threaded rods.

In testimony whereof I hereunto aliX my signature, in the presence of two Witnesses,
