Splashers are not very new, but the one shown in Fig. 54 is so far superior to the ordinary splasher as to merit description. It is made expressly for the purpose, being woven with a band of open-work all around and a sewed fringe on the four sides. The material is linen momie cloth. Along the upper edge at the back, five loops of tape are sewed, through which a brass or wooden rod is passed and secured to the wall by brass screw-eyes. One end of the rod is made to slip off so that the splasher is easily removed to be washed, and replaced again without the usual damage to the wall by tacking. The designs on them are also new and pretty.
