To Dwsf nndPofIsI Furniture.

The proper method of dusting furn1- ture has to be learned; it does not come naturally. People rarely begin with a duster in each hand, which is absolutely necessary to success; that in the left hand is needed to prevent leaving finger marks when steadying and lifting the furniture. Each piece should be wiped lightly from the top downward to remove dust, and then be rubbed vigorously to raise the pol ish. , ~>
 A stuffed cushion should be brushed and then dnsted before the wood is dealt with or the dust will fly out and settle on the wood. The legs and spindIes should be rubbed between the two dusters with both hands, as we rub cold hands together to warm them; this is saving of time and insures all sides being equally bright
 Those who do not admire bright gloss on furniture will find the de sired effect is obtained by rubbing the furniture with damp chamois leather and polishing with a dry one. When steam or water has turned the var nish of any piece of furniture white, rub the spots with spirits of camphor.
 To keep white enameled furniture in condition, sponge occasionally with warm water and white castle soap, dry it and then apply little whiting with a flannel cloth slightly damp ened When dry wipe off the whiting and polish with a soft cloth or chamois.
