freshly washed Swiss curtains at the

side Of the sunniest window the
kitchen actually makes dishwashing
and cooking a pleasure. Two cid
kitchen chairs in this room were also
mended with putty and painted with
the same kind of paint.
Wicker waste baskets that look
shabby may be very much improved
by coat Of paint. For a bedroom in
which there was white woodwork
perhaps the best paint TO select
would be a white enamel. For the
study or living room where the fur
niture is dark a flemish oak stain
would be a good selection. If the
stain has a high finish and you want
IL 10 be dull this can be effected by
rubbing the surface with a cotton
cloth after the pain has begun 20 set.
Most amateurs don't use as many
coats in painting as they ought to.
If they don't get the desired result
after a second coat they become dis
couraged and decide that painting is
a failure in the hands Of any but
experts. Especially is this so when
painting what has been a color or
dark stain white. Several coats will
be needed in this case. However, the
results are worth while. I know a
young girl who wanted white enam-
eled furniture in her room and she
got it by using some discarded fur
niture that had been stored in the
attic and a good supply of white
paint and enamel. An old light oak
bed she sawed into shape by cutting
down the high, ornate head board
and finishing the edge with a simple
molding and then painted il all with
two or three coats of paint and then
one coat of white enamel. Now that
light gray painted furniture has
come into vogue it would he a clever
idea if some one got out some OF
those discarded light oak pieces and
by means OF gray paint produced an
effect even more interesting than
that OF my clever young friend.

PAINT UP FOR WINTER.

With s. worth of paint you can
work wonders in the appearance OF
your house. In fact, it would be hard
TO think Of any other way of using
that amount of money this autumn
that would effect so great benefit to
the general looks of your abode. And
really. Mistress Housewife, there Is
no reason why you should do the
painting if there are any men or
boys in your family; TO there is
something about the pant brush
that appeals 10 every mothers son
and the task may be ma e very
pleasant. The best plan is TO have
all the pieces of furniture carried
into a light part of the cellar or a
wOodshed-if you are fortunate
enough to possess such a place. If
you live in an apartment, perhaps
the work can be done on a porch
or balcony where the paint will dry
quickly and where the smell will not
come into your living quarters.
The best thing for the one who is
20 do the painting is to have little
heart-to-heart talk with the paint
store man, for such a person can tell
you more about the practical use Of
paints in 10 minutes than a book on
the subject could tell in a days
pcrusal. Besides, different brands of
paint differ and the paint-stor man
knows best the characteristics of the
paints he carries. Usually they are
very good about telling you what you
want 10 know, whether YOU are buy
ing a 20-cent can of white enamel
or a 50 order.
Here are some of the things that
YOU can do with the paints TO make
