By Laura A. kirkman-
THE TREATMENT OF wOoDFLooRs

To Treat q Soft, Splintering Wood

q generous coat Of sheilac. Then give

the paint well into the cracks. And next
a coat Of varnish Finish with coat
Of wax. Keep this floor polished ike Il

To Treat Hardwood Floors: A floor
which is to have extremely hard wear
should have q ground work of underlac
or varnish before the wax IS applied.
By extremely hard wear ] mean dancing
or much traversing Of children's feet.
Otherwise. the floor may be simply

Perhaps the easiest way ls 70 buy q hard

Of boiling water and scrub the floor with
this. followed by a second Ycrubbng with

with one Of the many solvents on the
market for this purpose.
To Remove Stains on Wood Floors

should be remembered that thig is
deadly poison and must be used with
care. After using this acid one should
