The long suspenders | and lowered waisiline on the little cowboy skirt of grey The recent furniture market yielded few surprises. Scem- ingly, the emphasis is on modi- fication rather than innovation -- which is just about what is happening in the world of fash- ion this fall. The constant trend is to easy care--which is logical enough as the army of two - career women increases . PROTECTIVE FINISHES On her time away from of- fice or store, a woman doesn't want .to spend her leisure car- ing for her household furnish- ings. So there is the growing availability of protective fin- ishes on woods and _ fabrics. More and more upholstery is treated to resist spills and stains. There is a prevalence of ring- proof table surfaces. Casters on lounge chairs and small sofas ease housecleaning chores. Fur- niture with foam rubber cush- ioning keeps its profile without constant "'plumping." LATEST CONSIDERATION Compatibility i i major consideration especially | in upholstered furniture.

The metal appointments are being offered in a choice of glazed colors and the tendency is to scale them very large or very small. LIGHTER TREND New manufacturing methods have eliminated the need to bleach woods: to produce flatter- ing lighter finishes, which are big fashion news this season.

But it is interesting to learn about some of the exotic ways in which people in island coun- tries keep cool. FILIPINO TECHNIQUE Filipinos, for example, prac- tically live in the sea, so they naturally cool off in the Pacific --and also take at least three showers a day. These islanders also bitild homes with very large windows, which are practically never closed.
