OILED FLOORS.

Oliug improves floor in several ways.
Grease spots. of course, will not affect the
wood thus treated; and much less scrub
bling than is necessary for aplain floor will
suffice to keep it clean. Moreover. the
appearance is improved by the oil. Many
Of our native woods prepared in this man.
per becomes positively handsome. Finally,
it gives the surface harder texture, which
makes it wear longer aud more uniformly.
Paint costs more, takes longer to dry, and
wears off more easily, since it simply form s
q crust or coating upon the surface, while
oil penetrates the wood. Hence an oiled
Aoor looks better than painted one, cs-
pecially if little color, such as Van Dyke
brown, lumber, or burned sienna is added
to the oil. To prepare floor in this man
per, take raw linseed oil, or some cheap
oil, not offensive in odor and capable Of
drying; mix it, If desired, with some such
transparent color as those mentioned above
aud apply it with a common paint brush
Lay it 90 smoothly, so that it will strike
in uniformally, over the whole surface and
not stand in spots. This may he done at
night after the days work; and the place
will be ready for use again the next morn
ing. As far as oiled surface is concerned,
it might be stepped upon at once without
injury; but there would be danger in that
case of tracking the grease to other parts
of the house. A new coat of oil, applied
in this way once or twice year is sufficient
to keep floor in perfect order. This treat
ment is to be heartily commended for the
floors Of kitchens, verandas, closets, bath
rooms and laborers' bedrooms. 1t is also
a good plan in children's apartments, par
ticularly 10 training them to do their own
house work, to leave without carpet or
mating that part of the Aoor where the
bed stands, with few feet around it, and
to oil the wood. The floor under the bed
can then be kept free from dust, and the
sweepiugs can be readily removed; while
wash-stands ETC., can be SO disposed as to
give the youugstew free scope for their
duck-like ablutions, without injury to car
pets. In country houses the plan might
be carried still further. We recently had
oil the floors in newly built house oiled /;
and We think it wise economy. Many we'll
TODD families 10 Europe have no carpets
at all; and, though there are some disad-
vautages in such course, there are some
points gained. We think it gives cleaner
houses, with less house cleaning. Putting
down, taking up, and beating carpets is
the most vexations and laborious part Of
our domestic economy.

How TO BUILD BRICK CHIMNEY Tors.
All the brickwork above the superstruc-
ture, whether the building is stone, brick
or wood, should be made with cement
mortar, which will absorb much less water
than mortar made of caustic lime and sand.
The bricks for chimuey-top should be
soaked in water for few minutes, so that
they will not extract the water from the
morta-. In order to have mortar become
very hard, it must dry slowly. By laying
up wet bricks, the mortar will set slowly,
dry slowly, aud eventually become almost
as hard as the bricks. Every brick chin
ney should be covered at the top with a
copestone, with an arched top, or with
bricks placed over the fues, like the raft
ers Of building, for the purpose of turn
ing of the water which would go down the
inside, be absorbed by the bricks, and in
some instances, soak through and vet the
paper or kalsonining on the inside. A
chimney top laid up with good cement
mortar, and covered with copestone or
chimuey-arch, will stand the influences Of
the weather for more than hundred years
without any repairs
