Crannies of Furniture Tell
Buyer If Piece Is Well Made

Buying new furniture-Whether it's
chair or whole SUITES a
big event for the majority. The
purchase generally represents care
full saving and pleased anticipation
Because OF these factors and be-
cause most furniture lasts, not a
week or season, but the span
Of a lifetime. it behooves us to choose
wisely so that we Will have something
that Will enhance the beauty of our
household, cater to our comfort and

On an equal footing with beauty,
convenience and comfort l. durability.
And by durability is not meant just
that chair or table or chest will hold
together, but that its finish is as
tough as it is pleasing in appearance
But just what is good finish?
First OF all, a good, practical finish
is one that has a lustrous, yet dull,
appearance-an appearance that tells
OF the many hand operations which
have gone into the job. The Impor-
tant part about this eggshell or semi
gloss--or dull-fnish is that it doesn't
show dust, lint. finger marks-even
dents, A high gloss finish does Fur
thermore, a high gloss is not meant
for heavy duty. 1t is delicate and
shows scratches. There are high
gloss finishes on some fine and ex-
penSlve pieces of furniture-a high
gloss that is the result of an elab-
crate process which involves much
rubbing and polishing by hand. Also,
there are the cheap and glitterine
finishes that are applied to low
cost furniture.
There are several guideposts In
obtaining Well-finished furniture. Nat
urauy, the character OF the store is
one. Price is another. The wood
design and construction are still 9TH
ers. You can be sure that the manu-
tacturers will not waste a fine tin-

TREATMENT GIVEN
IN TREE BLEEDING
Hole Sometimes Bored in
Trunk Close to Ground
to Ease Pressure.

When moisture exudes from the bark
of a tree and runs down the outside
1t is called Summer bleeding, and
it always comes from some spot where
there Is q wound which reaches the
heartWood, states Paul Davey, tree
expert, In his advice to home owners
But. even with such wound, he
says, 4 tree will not bleed unless there
is an abnormal condition interfering
with distribution OF moisture through
the heartwood- and causing the sap
to collect under pressure.
1T tree experts had ever been able
to discover the cause OF the abnormal
condition which produces this pres
sure in the heartwood they probably
could find way to cure 1t" Davey
continues, but the cause remains a
mystery. Ordinarily, wound which
is properly treated will heal IN short
time, but where this abnormal pres
sure exists In the heartWood the
inner moisture will be forced ont and
prevent or greatly retard the healing

known as slime fux, Is evidenced by
no more than a wet spot on the tree
but there are cases where the in
terror pressure is so great that the
sap will be forced out in considerable
quantities. Then it ferments by the
action Of the air, attracts insects and
generally creates an unpleasant con-
dition. Even these extreme cases o!
Summer bleeding. however, are more
unpleasant to the eye than they are
dangerous to the health of the tree.
The only positive injury resulting is
to the bark over which the sap has
run. Fermentation seems to give Il
corrosive character to the sap and 1t
may penetrate the corky bark and
attack the more tender tissues. Any
bark injury is serious, but only pro-

After the opening lead Of the queen
of clubs, 1t was Immediately apparent
that success would depend upon
capturing all the adverse trumps plus
the ability to run of the spade suit.
The normal play OF the ace and king
OF hearts was out OF the question, as
this would remove dummy's re-entry
and the hand would be made then
only II one Of the opponents held
the doubleton jack OF spades.
Most players would have played
over to the ace Of hearts, then back
to the queen and then have played
the king-queen Of spades before re-
turning to dummy's ace OF hearts
However, as both spades and hearts
would have to break, there would be no
advantage in this line of attack. The
only other play, and the correct one,
was adopted by Mr.. Vanderbilt. Wis.,
ualizing the possibility of vests hold
ing the singleton jack Of hearts. Mr.
Vanderbilt played his queen. When
this turned out to be the case, he
promptly played his king and queen
OF spades, then played small trump
to dummy, but did not play the third
round Of trumps. Instead, he simply
played through east until that player
trumped. Mr.. Vanderbilt then over
