Desilvering a Mirror.

Question: have an old mirror
and would like to salvage the glass
Please tell me how to remove the
silver backing and have just the
plain glass remain. I could use this
for the top of my dresser.
Answer-Silvering of a mirror can
sometimes be removed with a razor
blade. BY another method the coat
ing that protects the silvering is
taken off with a paint remover. The
mirror Is then placed horizontally
covered with a layer of salt and
uoistened with a mixture of one
part water and three parts cider
vinegar. The effect is to produce
chlorine, which softens the silver
ing. After a number of hours the
silvering can usually be wiped off
clean. 5 -t

place with the walls the paper
eventually ripples and tears. What
can I do about this before repaper-
ing?
A. The chimney is separate from
the house and has different rate
of settlement. You can get around
this trouble by bringing the wall
paper up to the corners on both
sides, so that the unequal settlement
will not strain it. The edges can be
concealed by a small strip of mold
ing to be nailed on in such a way
that it will not be under strain.
This can be painted, of course.

 SUpERF0RTRESS
 MORE EFFICIENT

SEATTLE, Oct. 9.-The new B-5O SuperfortresSes which the Army has ordered in substantial number stress increased efficiency of op- eration without any apparent ln- crease in size over the B-29, Boeing Aircraft officials said today.
 Wellwood E. Beal, engineering and sales vice president of the firm, said the new plane although 1t appears to be much the same as the B-2o in size, actually puts out combination of increased load, range and high speed performance so outstanding that it will constl- ute this country's principal bom- bardment aircraft for several years"
 Among visible changes" over the B-29, Beall listed new power plant, 59 percent stronger than the B-29, consisting of four Pratt & Whitney Wasp Major engines, with jet exhaust stacks and water in lection, developing extra maximum horsepower. The B-29 generated 2,200 horsepower.
 The new bomber's fin and rud- der will be five feet higher than it's predecessor, and will be hinged to simplify maintenance and pro- vide clearance in hangars.

HURRICANE DIDN'T DAMAGE FLORIDA;
 KILLED 1 IN CUBA

CHARLOTTE, N. C., Oct. 9.-A freakish tropical hurricane which raised havoc in Cuba with 125- mile-an-h hour wind that slowed down relatively to a snail's pace before they entered Florida's west coast, virtually blew itself out last night in the Carolinas.
 The hurricane killed four per- sons and caused crop damage of S2,000,000 in western Cuba Sunday night, but the winds diminished so rapidly that government weather experts were at a loss to explain the phenomenon. Only negligible damage was done to Florida's rich citrus belt, whose S150, 100000 crop, the largest in history, is due to be harvested in few weeks.
