How to kesp the kitehsn Paint Bright
and Clean.
Kitchen paint will soon acquire
shabby, dull look from the frequent
cleaning that Is necessary In this room.
The use of soap only increases the diff
flculty, especially II the paints are var
nished. A good plan is to boil one
pound Of bran In gallon OF water for
an hour, then wash the paint with this
bran water. 1t will not only be kept
clean. but bright and glossy.
