And now plans are announced for the converting of the Sahara into a land of blossoming verdure, Alas, is the only dry place in the world to go ?--Port Arthur News-Chronicle. For Anything of Interest to H. pb the Housekeéper If furniture to be painted is old or darker colored than you wish it to be when repainted, it is neces- sary to remove the former finish, This may be done by applying a paint and varnish remover, which is a much easier process than the old- fashioned way of sandpapering and works better in carved or decorative parts. . ga Apoly this liquid with a brush or cloth. When it has penetrated the finish thoroughly, scrape it off with a dull, wide-bladed knife or palette. Scrub fancy {ars with a wire scour- ing brush. When the old finish is well removed, wash the piece with soap and water and let it dry, and then shellac it. Unless the piece has been painted marly times and the ac- cumulations of paint have made the mouldings and decorations clumsy, it is not necessary to remove the old finish first, New furniture which has had no finish must be shellacked be- fore it is painted. When the shellac is thoroughly dry, sandpaper it lightly; dust it; and cover with two coats of paint without oil, and composed chiefly of white lead with turpentine and dryer.

Re, sump or These coats need not be of same color as the final coat, but it may help to have them so. furniture should be lightly sandpapered and dusted between each coat of paint; and the first coats should be done with the same care as the last. Very little paint should be taken on the brush and the painting should be done with long, even strokes and brushed in well, with a slapping noise. Brush the ways of the grain and be care- ful that the brush marks do not show. | To tell if one coat is dry enough to add another, test it by pressing the hand against it long enough to let the heat make it stick, if it will.

This enables them to have an inter- esting reverse. On one side there may be a linen, damask foundation with a satin-like pattern, on the other side a very satiny background to a dull linen pattern, Tablecloths and table napkins and traycloths of all sizes are being made of this material and are very fashionable in old ivory color with the silk pattern a shade lighter.
