Ladies,
Have You Heard? ..
Sometimes an older piece of wooden furniture becomes drab
and loses its animation and color. When this happens, the sur
face has become clogged with dirt and grime
over the years, and you have to clean it.
There are several ways to do this. You can
buy a reputable cleaning product for wood
furniture at the grocery or hardware stoie
Or you can use liquid wax or oil polish,
the kind used originally to finish the piece
Dip a coarse cloth or a pad of finest steel wool
into the wax or polish and rub the wood gently
along the grain. Wipe off residue before it
dries
If wax has built up or turned white in
caived areas, use on old toothbrush to remove
it, then wipe dry.
An alternate method of cleaning wood sur
faces is soap and water cleaning. This may not
success unless you read labels,
follow directions, and use clean
cloths for all polishing jobs. One
secret of success for waxing
wood surfaces is to apply a thin
coat of wax with a soft cloth,
folded into several layers
After cleaning, you can keep
most wood furniture antiques
as well as modern—in good, lus
trous condition with regular
dusting and polishing. No short
cut takes the place of this.
Traveling With Your Dog
One couple planning to drive
across the country this summer
was asked what they planned to
do with their dog.
They looked as if they had
been asked the strangest ques
tion “Why, he’s going with us,
sound like a good idea, but it has
the advantage of taking off
sticky stains and murky, ground
in dirt.
To clean, combine mild soap
Cleaning Wood Surfaces
and warm water and beat them
to a thick, billowy suds. Dip a
clean sponge into the suds and
wash a small area at a time.
Rinse with a fresh sponge and
clean water. Then dry immedia
tely and polish.
Remember: no job will be a
of course,” they said. “It just
takes a little extra planning. ”
So, today for all those who
“have dog—and will travel,” here
are some recommendations.
According to the experts, if
your pet isn’t used to long peri
ods in a car, condition him by
taking him on daily trips for a
few weeks before you leave. Be
fore each stop on your trip,
check any of the motel ‘guides
that show where dogs are wel
comed—and phone ahead for
reservations
If you’re going to be crossing
state lines, make sure you have
a certificate of health for your
dog Some states require it Be
suie, too, that his identification
tag and license are securely fast
ened to his collar.
Your dog’s luggage should in
clude his favorite blanket or
sleeping pad. his water and food
d/shes, and extra packages or
cans of the food he’s used to—
in case you have trouble locating
it in markets along the way The
object is to do as little as pos
sible that could upset him.
Your veterinarian, foi exam
ple, may recommend a mild tran
quilizer for the first couple of
days
And prepare to offer your dog
a little cracked ice until he gets
used to the constant motion.
Take paper towels, just in case.
When you’re traveling, always
attach a good strong leash before
you let your dog out of the car to
walk.
And here’s a final pointer from
the SPCA whether you’re driv
ing on a long vacation trip or
just to the corner stoie, never
leave youi pet in a car with the
windows shut tight. During the
hot weather season, this could
mean tragedy.
