any stains can be prepared at any good
paint shop or bought in tin cans ready
mixed for use. First have all rough or
uneven places in the floor smoothed off
with a plane, and all cracks filled; then
put the stain on with a broad brush, fol-
lowing the grain of wood. After the
second coat of stain is dry, varnish with
spar varnish," so called because used
for the spars of vessels. Put on a second
coat of varnish as soon as the first is
quite hard. This varnish is very hard
and will OF scratch like other varnishes.
Unless the floor has hard usage, once a

Never wax i. if you wish to revarnish,
