SOME TREATMENTS
FOR OLD SURFACES

The best thing to do in refinishing old
wood surfaces is to remove all varnish
apd paint. This may be done easily by
the use Of good varnish remover.
The varnish remover may be bought
at any paint store. 1t is applied with a
brush and allowed to stand for a few
minutes; then the varnish and paint Is
easily removed. II there are any burned
or stained places it may be necessary to
scrape the surface with a piece of glass.
Then the surface is thoroughly smoothed
with sandpaper and is ready for . new
paint or varnish. II II Is desirable to
keep the color and grain of the wood as
it is, clear varnish may be used which
contains the desired color.

BEEF FROM ARGENTINA
NOW IS ON SALE HERE
Shipment Of 800, 900 Pounds Reaches
Washington from South Ameri-
can Country,

A shipment of 10000 pounds Of Argen.
tine beef, sent here by way of expert.
ment in hope that the price of beef will
be reduced, has reached Washington
and Is on sale. The shipment is the first
to reach here, and will be followed BY
many others.
Hoover and Denham, who claim ex-
elusive Southern rights for the distribU-
tion Of the Argentine beef. say that they
are experimenting in hope that they
may reduce the prices of meat by in
creasing materially the supply of Amer
lean cattle.
1t is said that the quality of the
beef is usually better than that of
American meat, and at worst is as good
as the best beef sold in this country.
This, at least, is the claim of the ship
pers.
The shipment reached Washington
from Buenos Ayres by way Of Liverpool,
1t is hoped by shippers that the price
OF the beef. which now is lower by !
cent a pound than that of American
meat of the same kind, later will be
reduced further.
THE situation with the Argentine
beef is similar to that in connection
with the first shipments of Western
beef, said Mr. Denham yesterday.
when the first shipments were made
OF Western beef there was q great deal
OF opposition to the product. 1t was
soon found. however, that the beef was
better than the Eastern beef. and for
many years people have talked Western
beef as II 1t were the finest In the world
western beef is becoming scarce and
expensive. Lack of feed and proper
grazing grounds is injuring the quality.
In this Argentine beef We find a repro
duction of the early Western beef. The
quality is of the best. Our butchers
comment on its fine appearance and
usually good Flavor. Even at present
prices the Argentine beef is as good
as the American beef or better. With
the reduction of the tarin and improve
ment of shipping conditions through di-
rect shipments it will be possible to
undersell similar qualities Of American
beef"
The present shipment includes about
800 cattle which at 1000 pounds to each
animal makes 10000 pounds. The pres
ent value is 12Iz cents a pound as COM
pared with 13Is cents for similar Ameri-
can beef. The time required for the
shipment by way of Liverpool was
thirty-five days. By direct service from
Buenos Ayres this time may be reduced
to twenty-three days.

Perfumed Bows.

Have you noticed fetching bows OF
satin peeping through the lace Of a lin.
gerie blouse? These bows have a deeper
purpose than that of decoration. Pretty
as they are. they are constantly giving
forth a delicious fragrance. for each OF
the padded loops is scented with sachet
powder. The sachet used is scented with
one of the popular bouquet odors. and is
particularly lasting. The bows may be
bought in different colors. and each Is
daintily packed in red box. which sells
for 50 cents.
There are stunning roses scented with
the same fragrance which add an effect
i've bit Of color to any costume when
thrust carelessly through the sash OF
belt. These roses are made Of satin and
have the long stem and foliage. The
scent, the shape, and the color make
them an excellent imitation Of the real
thing for the sum Of 81.
