BEFORE WORK is BEGUN.
Proper Preparation Means the Dit

Before starting to finish a floor be
sure that you put 1t in good condi-

now made that will remove any stain
or grease that may have collected on
the boards.
If the floor is ole and the boards
have shrunken apart; if it is cracked.
o. If 1t is new and the boards do not
fit together perfectly, it is best before
applying any kind Of finish to fill up
the cracks and seams with putty or
paper pulp. SO that smooth and even
surface may be obtained to work on.
A painted finish is suitable for any
room in the house where the floors
are of soft wood Hardwood floors.

etc. which have a varnish finish. need
not be painted unless they are so
badly disfgured or married that they
do not look well when vanished.
Where the floor is to be vanished
the object is to bring out the natural
grain of the wood. On open grained
woods, frst fill the floors with good
filler in whatever shade you may
have selected. then apply the varnish.
The close grained woods do not re-

The colors in which paints, varnish.

however, upon the general color
scheme OF the room whose floor you
are to treat.
The painted finish may not always
be suitable for a scheme OF decora-
lions and the floors may not be in
good enough condition for finishing
in varnish, or they have been pre-
viously painted. In cases Of this kind

which covers up the imperfections
and at the same time produces good
varnish finish initiating natural
woods. This can also be done with
new floors.
The finish Of standing woodwork
follows about the same general princi-
pies as that Of floor finishing, except
in cases where you wish to have an
enameled surface. Such surface is
pleasing in bedrooms,
and kitchens, although
any room in the house is appropriate
for its use-it depends a good deal
upon lighting conditions. Some deco
rativ.e schemes require a high gloss
enamel finish, while others seem to
call for dull finish. In either case
the finish is easy to apply and the
colors In which it is made are soft
md delicate.

 The text of the sermon was based upon that well known statement in one by one they all began to make excuses The man with the farm must prove it, the man with the reW team of oxen must prove them, and the man who had married him d new wife could not go to the feast MT. Brown showed how futile these excuses were, how they were lies. ir fact. The man with the farm stood in no danger of loosing his property and the man with the oxen could have proved them the next day and they would not have spoiled
 As for the man who had married him a new wife, the preacher asked the women folks in the audience if l that was much of an excuse to keer the man away from the master table. From the smiles that answer ed the question it might be gathered that most of the women present agreed with the preacher.
