Furniture refinishing is a
fun project, especially when
you've acquired some fab
ulous buy" and see its beauty
restored little by little.
A comfortable, well-venti-
lated area is helpful to the
success of the refinishing
project. A barn or garage is
ideal, but a spot outdoors IN
cooler weather eliminates
mess and hazards of inflam-
mable materials.
Before you begin refinish-
ing furniture, analyze it. Will
it stand stress and strain
when you have repaired it?
This is especially true of
chairs.
One can do a good up
holstery job - strengthening
springs, padding with cotton,
~burlapping. But leg and runs
repair is another matter. A
,looSe rung may be beyond
repair by an amateur, having
already been shaved by the
previous owner. also an
amateur, perhaps.
Seek Help
: 1t is best to seek out a
chair repairer at the start,
for a small amount expended,
you can have a good chair.
If the leg is broken. it will
surely require the help of an
experienced worker as a new
: ,leg may be required. and
special refinishing problems
e. may be encountered.

gpated in the repair of rock

WHY GROW OLD7
Have q
Beauty
Routine
By JOSEPHINE BOWMAN

(Register and Tribune Syndicate)
AttracSiveneSs today con-
sists of so many different
factors. and we must indulge
in so many seemingly unim-
portant beauty routines in
order to appear our best.
Unless we have a regular.
planned routine. We are al
most certain to become care
less and to find ourselves
unprepared for the special
moments in our lives. For
this reason it seems wise to
check on ourselves every once
in a while. For instance:
Do you have a regular time
set aside for a weekly man
icure? If your life is such
that this is impossible, do
you at least see to it that
you have a manicure once a
week?
Do you have a shampoo
and set at regular intervals
whenever best for you? If
your hair is dry, you may
like to have a shampoo only
once every 10 days; if it is
extremely oily, you may look
and feel better having one
a couple of times a week.
The main thing is to abide
by the routine which is best
for you.
Do you cleanse your face
at least once daily? Are you
faithful with daily skin lu-
brication?
Do you brush your hair or
massage your scalp for a few
minutes once every "a yours?
Do you set aside time once
a week to look over your
clothes in order to see what
needs cleaning, mending or
pressing? This is extremely
important for women who
lead busy lives. Otherwise,
you will find yourself having
to stop to sew a button or
a hook on in the middle Of
a busy day.
Have you set aside a GER
tain time for daily exercises?
This will keep your figure
and heath in trim.
