This could be the result. The Aquarobic Home Sewage Treatment System is Government Accepted. Ontario's Ministry of the Environment has handed down some tough, new regulations governing home sewage treatment systems such as pit privys and septic tanks. These regulations are being imposed for everyone's benefit. If your existing (or proposed) system does not conform to these regulations, use of your property could be denied until it does. Waltec Industries Limited's revolutionary new Aquarobic Home Sewage Treatment System can solve your problem. That's because after five years of rigid field tests, (including one year at the Ontario Research Foundation s Sheridan Park) Aquarobic has been accepted in writing by the Ministry. In short, it conforms! Read about these other Outstanding Benefits 1. Aquarobic is the first really efficient alternative to the septic tank. 2.

After washing, the 1 5 furniture should be rubbed dry with a clean fresh i 1 cloth. The washing and cleaning removes most = j§ smears and stickiness. Fresh waxing can follow. 1 s This is most beneficial in restoring the luster of = EE antique furniture. 1 s If you don't want to use water, here is a I 5 cleaning formula that also works: Put one = s teaspoonful of olive oil and one teaspoonful of = p turpentine in a quart of warm water. Swish a 1 £ cloth in this mixture. Press out .excess moisture § H from the cloth and rub down the furniture. § E Follow by drying with another clean dry cloth, i = The results will be superb. § Those plastic tabs used to hold bread and bun = = wrappers closed can be converted into = 1 bookmarks or used for holding sheets of 1 s notepaper together.' § We have never heard of this before, but a 1 s neighbor credits her superb annual display of £ £ roses in her garden to keeping them in top form I 1 with regular doses of Epsom salts. A couple of i § tablespoons of the salts, dug into the soil around = 5 each plant every couple of weeks is said to be the § § secret. When buying the salts, try aqd purchase | H them in bags. The salts are much coarser and £ = much cheaper. £ If you have a doorknob hitting against your j | E furniture or walls each time the door is opened, = i just slip a plastic kitchen scrubber over the = E knob. This will prevent dents and marred places 1 1 on walls and furniture. They usually are sold in a 1 1 variety of colors, so you can buy one that will E 1 blend in with the decor of your room. i Disposable dustpans that are the perfect tool 1 i for cleaning up food spills, paste or other moist 1 = materials that might adhere to the regular = 1 dustpan can be made out of aluminum-foil = 1 pieplates. When cutting the plate, save two- 1 i thirds for the pan and the other third for a 1 E scraper. | If you are going away on a weekend trip and = § want to take along some different colored = E threads and needles for emergency sew-ups. E | You can do it without having to carry along an H I entire sewing kit. Wrap a yard or so of the | 1 different colored threads around a popsicle = = stick. Put loose ends all on one side and cover E § wtih a piece of clear plastic tape. Push needles 1 I into tape. An empty pill bottle is also another E § handy container.

I Most cats like nibbling on grass, but if they are §E i kept indoors because you live in an apartment, = 1 they will satisfy their urge for greens by eating 1 5 the leaves on house plants. You can satisfy the s § craving by planting some oats or rye .seed in E = aluminum foil pans. Bird seed can also be used if E S the oat or rye seed is not available. If your pet 1 §j feline also uses your furniture and upholstery for 1 E sharpening its claws, make a scratching post by 1 s covering a piece of scrap lumber with an old E H piece of rug.
