ii there arc ten. and you arc restricted
in help, they will get overhauled only
four or five times n year, but in either
case there will be no domestic revolu-
ton, no complete upheaval OF your lares

1t is very much better for tho furni-
ture, etc, to DO treated systematically
all tho year round in this fashion.
Linolcum oil and floor cloths, washed
and polished in the Same way as stained
floors, only with a thinner preparation,

manner for six months, and then ella
borately scrubbed or otherwise treated
with drastic remedies to remove stains
and marks which have been allowed to

difficulty to remove them. The Same
remark naturally applies to polishing.
\ little done every week keeps tho
furniture in much better condition than
spasmodic operations; it can DO per.
formed with such n variety OF prepara
tlons that the difficulty lies In the
choosing. One Of the most satisfactory
polisbes is also the simplest-namely,
n mixture OF linseed oil aud vinegar,
KEEP. in O well corked bottle and shaken
before use; the furniture must DO busted
first, then the mixture can be applied
over q small surface, polishing quickly
with old rags. This somewhat primitive
but citicacious compound has q double
advantage; it docs not form n cake over
the wood evon with long use (which
cake invariably produces cracks) and
the combined oil and vinegar remove
many stains and grease marks that ordi-
nary polishcs DO not touch. Mirrors
and looking glasses should BIO cleaned
as n regular thing every time q room is
done; nothing looks SO bad as n stained
surface to a glass OF any description,
and 4 little spirits Of wine judiciously
applied with n soft rag will remove tho
most obstinate marks; picture frames
and books, too, should be we'll dueted,
and cupboard shelves busted and re.
