Easy Method of Placing Them So They
Will Remain Firm.
Few women know how TO drive q
nail into brick wall. and yet it is
what they often need to do for them
selves IL there is no man about.
The following method is easy and has
been found entirely satisfactory: Hav-
ing decided upon the exact spot into
which the nail is desired to be driven.
which must be in the plaster between
the bricks. provide yourself with a
hammer and screwdriver. With these
tools commence working out the hard
plaster by tapping the handle of the
screwdriver. AS the plaster turns to
dust it must be blown or busted out so
that the size of the hole may be seen.
When a space about one inch long and
nearly one inch deep has been worked
out get a small piece of wood about
the same size and with the hammer
wedge it tightly into the space. When
it seems firm take the nail and drive it
into the wood. 1t will go in nicely.
without bending. and remain firm an
indefinite length of time. This same
method was used at one time when 1t
was decided to hang q hammock be-
tween the fence and the wall, with the
exception that the hole was dug out
little longer and deeper than for an or
binary nail.-Minneapolis Journal
