woodwork of my bathrooms painted
a glossy white. What paint would
you advise me to use? Also what
finish for a maple hard wood floor,
which is lighter in color than | wish

White enamelite is recommended as
being very durable and drying with
a good gloss. Stain your maple floor
the color desired, and finish with
Supremis floor finish. 1t is elastic and
durable, and has a good polish without
slipperiness.

ter are determined 10 find out what II
means. The criticism Of the methods Of
diagnosis OF cases by the police sur
geons is not considered serious, as these
