The method of polishing furniture, keeping it in good condition, with a new appearance, is not so generally understood as it should be. To improve the appearance of any furniture, take a soft sponge, wet with clean cold water, and wash over the article; then take a soft chamois skin and wipe clean; dry the skin as well as yon can by wringing it in your hands, and wipe the water off the furniture, being careful to wipe only one way. Never use a dry chamois on varnish work. In deeply carved work the dust cannot be removed with a sponge; use a stiff haired paint brush instead. When clean and dry, give a thin coating of TAN-OL (use the liquid Tan-oi in the Is tins) and polish with a velvet pad or cloth.
