tile cannot be placed over a

Answer-A linoleum rug should
not be placed on a cellar floor.
You would get a bad odor from
the mildew that would form and
the rug would disintegrate. A
concrete floor that has been
given about three coats of a
rubber-base paint and then well
waxed makes an excellent sur

Answer - This material will
take as much abuse as anything
that was ever made for the
purpose, but there are limits. It
can be stained by such things
as fruit juices and acids when
these are allowed to remain on
the surface for several hours.
These stains cannot be removed.

Answer wish it were so
simple. even though it would be
rough on some statesmen who can

has between 139. 900 and $4,000
BTU per gallon and natural gas
contains from 800 to l,l50 BTU

slip covers for the cushions on
the sofa and chair, and lamp
shades for two lamps with maple
bases?
Answer-A block pattern tile
in beige and terra Gotta would
be good for the floorcovering in
the playroom of your home. For
sofa-cushion slip covers, l advise
a hubby fabric in green, and for
the chair cushions, brown simu-

would be good selection for the

a pair of barrel chairs. Could I
have them upholstered in coral?
Also. what colors would be best
for the draperies and for a rocker
that has to be reupholstered?
Answer-The barrel chairs up
holstered in coral would add a
bright color note to your living
room. Draperies with a pattern
in green. brown and coral on a
white background would compile
ment the white fireplace wall and
tie into the color scheme. Have
the rocker upholstered in dark

About Radiant Heat
I'VE are planning a new home
and we are badly confused by all
the conflicting information con-
corning the pros and cons of
radiant heating. What is your
opinion of the relative advant-
ages of installing heating coils
in the ceiling and in the con-
crete floor slab?" S. A. S. asks.
Answer-My preference would
be for the ceiling installation.
The relatively thin layer of plas-
ter over the coils reacts much
more quickly to changes in out
side temperature than does the
large mass of concrete in the
floor. The effectiveness of floor
heating is further retarded by
carpet and furniture.
According to studies made by
a large manufacturer, ceiling
coils transmit 70 per cent of
