$50 far as I've gone, we've found
no evidence of a marriage for
Phillips. In fact, we've found no
evidence Of Phillips existence

no early beginnings Devereaux
smiled slightly. Its as il he

circulates from Washington. d. c.
A somber note crept into the portly
detectives tone. He also owns 4

believes humanity win find the
answer to its doldrims In recon
Stgucting its old furniture and do
ing things to It with paint.
For years he has had a studio
in Provincetown on Cape Cod, and
has been putting bright peasant
decorations on everything from
salt cellars to the walls Of game
rooms.
A blithe spirit is the first ingre-
dient for working on and with old
furniturel
After this fundamental recon-
mendation. Mr.. Hunt gives the
reader basic strokes in bright IL
Illustrations. Then fruits. ladies.
birds, horses, vegetables, men, and
fish are constructed with these
strokes The colors are usually
bright and blatant, or some CON-
bination Of basic pink with lines
in red. Materials from sandpaper
to cobalt blue oil paint are sug-
gested.
Pictures are shown OF dashing
wastepaper baskets made from
scrub pals. lard tins, paint cans
and nail kegs, all given the pro-
per peasant treatment. And q won
derful array Of table lamp bases
is described, made Of every
thing from a leaking coffee pot
| to broken table leg. from q glass
| jar to q cracked and splintering
decoy. Old picture and mirror
frames become q gorgeous array
Of trays which Mr.. Hunt promises
| win both add gaiety to a party
and stimulate conversation.
