MODERN HOUSEKEEPING
AIDED BY NEW BRUSHES
Cleaning Problems of Home Made
Easier by Advanced Type
of Devices.

The housewife of today is indeed
fortunate in having available brushes
of all shapes and sizes especially de-
signed for solving her home-cleaning
problems. The methods used by our
grandmothers are no longer in vogue.
The modern American home is in
complete without quota of brushes
of various kinds, and, as dirt is no
respecter of persons or places, clean
ing tools are essential to every type
Of home.
All the brushes are so constructed
that there is no difficulty in getting
the dirt and dust out of corners and
crevices. Draperies and holdings
can be easily reached and the finest
tapestries and wall paper thoroughly
cleaned without fear of injury.
The methods for cleaning the
brushes are very simple, as the mod
ern twisted-in-wire or steel-gripped
principles allow for thorough wash
ing with warm water and soap fakes,
whether those brushes are of bristle
or cotton yarn construction.

To apply varnish satisfactorily, the
temperature Of the room in which it
is used should be about 70 degrees
Fahrenheit, as cold interferes with the
working qualities of varnish. 1t is
very important that the wood be free
from dampness. or the varnish will not
dry satisfactorily.
Stains are designated according to
the liquid vehicle in which the cotors
are mixed, as spirit stains, pigment
oil stains and water stains. Close
