THE HOUSEHOLD.

Many persons find trouble in MAX
ing putty stick, when they put i'll
new glasses, or try to repair their
windows, the proper way to do that
is to go over the parts on which they
intend to apply putty with a coat of
boiled linseed oil, and when this is
dry apply the putty and it will stick.
The easiest way to get paint off of
window glass without spelling the
frame is to use a sharp pen knife
and scrape it off.
When putting a new covering on
second handed furniture never cut
out the size of the chair or other
: bottom, first fit the left hand corner
in the rear, stretch to the right hand
fold and tack properly, then tack
the whole rear part solid, when that
is done stretch forward and smooth
off even and tack fast with two OF
three tacks in front, your covering
will then be in position to be cut the
exact size that will fit properly
Use suitable tape trimmings to cover
the tacks.
