colonial" and even of late seven
teenth century, early eighteenth
century" etc.
But it is far from the actual condi-
tions when we imagine that quaint
ness" and Puritan simplicity" accu-
rately describe all the furnishings
of that period. Some of it was very
-palatial, indeed. such as the mag
nificent landscape wallpapers that
can be seen in museums, Chippendale
furniture and Persian rugs. 1t is
easy to account for the difference be-
tween the Northern and the Southern
styles-the New England settlers be-
ing all for chaste simplicity, while
the Southerners, representing the
richer English class, introduced a
colonial architecture and furniture
more pretentious and elaborate than
anything seen among the New Eng
land craftsmen.
AS the furniture of the period was
naturally modelled from that brought
over in the cabins of their sailing
vessels from England. some of it re-
fleets the William and Mary inspira-
ton, some the Queen Anne, much of
the Dutch, since the English Sepa-
ratists fed first to Holland and after
the Revolution, because of our friend
ly relations with France, quantities
of French furniture were scattered
throughout the colonies.

! latter means. Patching plaster is the
newer and improved aid. especially
for the man or woman who wishes to
do his or her own renovating. Like
plaster of paris, this patching plaster
comes in powdered form in packages,
and needs only to have water added
to make it ready for use.
Outfit and Instructions.
The equipment for the work is
small-a trowel, for mending large
cracks, and a putty knife or brush,
for small ones: a sponge, to wipe
away Superfluous particles and a
board or pan, to use when mixing the
powder. Your outfit is complete with
these articles.
Put some of the patching plaster on
the board or in the pan and gradually
add cold water stirring constantly.
until you get the right consistency
very thick, creamy mortar Wet
the spot to be plastered. Fill it with
the plaster. using the trowel, knife
or brush, according to the size of the
spot. Smooth the plaster carefully
Since II dries comparatively slowly
time is allowed for good job to be
done by an amateur.
FIJI Cracks in Boards
The patching plaster can be put to
many other uses besides that of mend
Ing plaster. 1t can be used to fill nail
holes in wood and cracks in floors
where boards do not join neatly. 1t is
easier to use than putty and has the
added advantage of drying in about
an hour, so it does not hold up work
An amateur is always in such a hurry
to finish job when once the work is
begun! @=. Il.
Tinting Plaster.
The plaster may be toned with art
lists paints so that 1t matches the coll
or or the wall or the woodwork, and
so do away with the need of tinting
afterward. One process is saved. 1t
must be remembered that wet paint is
darker than dry, so allow for this
when you think you get the correct
shade. 1t is wise to let some of the
toned plaster dry and see If 1t is the
exact color desired before patching
with it.

Colonial.

The recent revival OF interest in
the styles and types of furniture
used by our forefathers has led to
much questioning AS to just what Is
meant by the term colonial" any
way. AS a matter of fact, 1t is a
very broad, often misused term, and
consequently the cause of much con-
fusion in the average persons mind
But what it does not mean is
"primitive"-an idea that seems to
be entertained in the minds of a
great many people. We are wrong
when we think of it as merely SYM
bolizing the cottage life-rag rugs,
chintz curtains and rough-hewn fur
niture.
The furniture made in that period
the needs and living conditions of the
settlers in the new world-a thing
that cannot always be said of fur
niture. 1t was very good furniture,
indeed; strong, sturdy, useful and
possessing a sound structural merit
to boot. Its chaste proportions, fine
turnings, restrained carvings and fit
ness to purpose is just what makes
1t so popular today, equally adapt
able to our modern living conditions
and those of a century and a half
ago.
In the strictest sense of the word,
colonial specifies the furniture made
before the Revolution. After that
time 1T is known as early American.
Colonial furniture is that made by
the first and second generations of
original settlers-chiefly those of
Dutch and English strain, who, it
will be remembered, composed the
bulk of the population in the colo
nies in the first century of their his
tory.
Some people like to differentiate

Every ousewife dislikes the ap-
pearance of cracked walls and CELL
ings. These do not always indicate
that the plaster is loose. 1t may be
that the plaster in which ungainly
cracks appear is comparatively new.
This may be due to the plaster being
dried too quickly. In fact, this is a
common fault. Sudden changes of
temperature, such as come in early
Spring and late Fall may affect ples-

This expression, meaning to get

medieval days.
Scot is a perversion of the An
glo-Saxon "sceat," which meant ito
pay" And in the days when our lam
guage was still in the making each
man had to pay to his immediate SUI
perior his Tot" or tribute. Hence the
old legal term scot and lot"
If man chanced by fortunes favor
to get off without paying his tribute

Many people object to the use of
moth balls on account of the dis

wooden goods or furs for the Summer,
try this plan: Buy the required guam

cheesecloth or any thin material. fill
them with the cloves, then place these
little bags among your clothes. This

and much more agreeable.
