We need not be discouraged, how

use of paint, any harmonious color

Any piece of painted or stained

painted trim is used, the chest of

may be painted to match, and we
will still retain perfect harmony.
In many instances, it may be adj

for instance, in the case of an old

After the varnish is entirely re-

the surface of the wood with
medium grade of sandpaper, dress

After this is done, the piece of

It is surprising what excellent re-
suits can be derived by the use of
paint, stain or white enamel. Take,
for instance, the room with the

stained to look like mahogany and
our furnishings are not in charac-
