A Home in Colonial Yellow
The charm of our Colonial architecture lies in its apparent simplicity. The appearance of bareness is avoided only through the most careful attention to detail, such as doorways, cornice, spacing of windows, etc.
It is advisable, therefore, in planning the Colonial home to place your re quirements in the hands of one of the dependable makers of high grade millwork. Like prepared paint, standardized mflkork is more dependable and more likely to be correct than your builder can turn out himself- and not so costly.

Don't Be Fooled by "Cheap" Paint
`CHEAP" PAINT ISN'T CHEAP AT ALL !
WHEN you buy paint to dress up and protect your house, don't let a "low price'1 blind your good sense. Thousands of home owners are bewailing a "cheap" paint job this very minute and paying the penalty in hard cash. "C heap" paint is made of cheap or skimpy materials. How else could it be sold at a low price in the highly competitive market today? Cheap or skimpy materials make a poor, weak grade of paint. That's only sense. It may look like paint and smell like paint in the can. But on the brush and on your house -- the poor quality shrieks.
COMPARE THE "CHEAP" FORMULA WITH SWP
If you are tempted to use a "low price" house paint--one that is claimed, even guaranteed and warranted, to be "just as good as SWP," GO SLOW If Remember that low price and low quality go hand in hand. You can't make a silk purse from a sow's ear.
Make the formula test I Insist upon seeing the formula of the "cheap" paint, either on the label or in the literature of the company.
Compare the materials used in making the "cheap" paint with the ingredients of fine old SWP House Paint--as diown in the formula which is plainly printed on every SWP can. Take Outside Gloss White for the first comparison.
Note the big percentage of White Lead Carbonate and White Lead Sulphate used in fine old SWP Outside Gloss White. White Lead should be the basic ingredient of all white paint and light tints. U is to these paints exactly what flour is to bread.
See how much smaller a percentage of this basic ingredient is used in the average "cheap" white paint.
Zinc Oxide is the next essential ingredient--this also is a costly pig ment. A liberal percentage of tine oxide combined with a large amount of white lead makes for a balanced formula--such as the formula of SWP Outside Gloss White House Paint. It assures a finish of superior wearing quality.
More than 90% of the pigment content of SWP Outside Gloss White is made up of these two important ingredients--White Lead and Zinc Oxide.
In the majority of "cheap" white paints you wilt usually find only 50% or less.
It is the liberal quantity of this expensive basic material in every can of SWP Outside Gloss White that gives this fine old paint its remarkable covering capacity.
Now when you consider the darker colors such as the browns and the greens, the bslanced formula of SWP becomes even more important. By their very nature these dark colors can contain little if any, opaque white pigment such as white lead or zinc oxide.
Sherwin-Williams have the pick of the world's best colors. Our own dry color works produce practically everything except the natural earth and mineral colors. That is why SWP colors are so rich, so permanent and so true to character.
This is an age of COLOR. SWP Colors stay beautiful and they protect your home because they last.
Greater durability of the paint film on your house is assured by SWP due to the use of a specially treated pure linseed oil--made in SherwinWilliams own linseed oil plant.
WHICH DO YOU PREFER --360 SQUARE FEET PER GALLON OR ONLY 250
Some people think that SWP House Paint is an expensive paint because it costs more per gallon. That is not so.
As a matter of fact. SWP is the least expensive house paint on the wall--on the market. And here is why:
An average gallon of fine old SWP will properly beautify and protect three hundred and sixty square feet of your house--two coats to the gallon.
Will a "cheap," low price paint do that? No.
The best you can get from an average gallon of "cheap" paint is a meager two hundred and fifty square feet I--two coats.
Right there, in that forty-four per cent greater coverage- m the fewer gallons of SWP needed--the difference in price per gallon is nulli fied.
On the wall--in actual gallons needed to paint your house--SherwinWilliams House Paint costs no more than the cheap, low price kind.
And remember this: It costs no more to put on good paint than to put on "cheap" paint.
Which would you rather have?
YOU GET MORE YEARS OF SERVICE. TOO!
Once your house has been painted with SWP House Paint your saving has only begun. A beautiful SWP job outlasts any "cheap paint by years.
It dries to a firm, elastic, glossy surface. It weathers slowly. There's no cracking or chipping or peeling--if properly applied.
Long after a "cheap" paint job hat taken on the appearance of a pair of faded overalls, you can wash the dust off an SWP job with plain soap and water, and the colors will come up fresh and bright.
LESS REPAINTING EXPENSE
And when repainting ia needed It can be done easily, quickly and with much less paint, because the surface is in perfect condition.
Compare that with a "cheap" paint job that fades out and wears out quickly--that cracks and chips and peels--that has to be repainted often--and that haa to be burnt off, or scraped off, at every repainting.
SWP House Paint Is sold by leading paint merchants everywhere. And each of these dealers Is "Paint Headquarters" In his district. One of them is no doubt located near you.
SEE "PAINT HEADQUARTERS" AND SAVE MONEY
Before you let "cheap" paint blind you to real economy--see your local SWP dealer. He will estimate your requirements in SWP.
Compare the SWP estimate with what a "cheap" paint will cost
Then remember the greater durability of SWP -the exquisite colors
that do not fade. Then specify the paint you think will give you bes
results.
'
If you do not recall "Paint Headquarters" in your locality, write us fo the dealer's name. If you want expert help on a color scheme, our liter ature, color cards, or the famous Sherwin-Williams Household Painting
Guide--just write. There ia no obligation.

DIRECTIONS FOR USING SWP
NEW WOOD --Outside:
FIRST COAT OR PRIMER For very soft wood or old weathered lumber, add one gallon pure ruw linseed oil and one quart pure turpen tine to each gallon of SWP.
For resinous woods, such as yellow pine, cypress or cedar, add two
quarts pure raw linseed oil and one quart pure turpentine to each aal-

SECOND COAT Add one pint pure turpentine to each gallon of
1. See that the surface is free from grease, dirt and soot. Wash with soap and water if necessary rinse thoroughly.
2. See that the surfuce is perfectly dry.
If the surface is in good condition lor repainting, apply SWP us directed for second and third couts on new wood.
4. If the old paint is peeling, scaling or cracking, burn off all the old paint or scrape and clean off all loose paint with u stiff wire bru$h. Then follow directions for lirst coat on new wood for all bare spots. Let dry and then follow directions for sec ond and third coats.
THIRD COAT - To each gallon of SWP a pint or a quart of pure raw lin seed oil may be added.
OLD WOOD-- Outside: Before SWP is applied over a previously painted surface, these pre
cautions should be taken;
OLD LUMBER WHICH HAS NEVER BEEN PAINTED:
Lumber exposed to the weather for years without the protection of paint is not only dry, but porous, so that speciul attention must be given to the first coat.
FIRST COAT--Thin SWP bulk for bulk with raw linseed oil and add a pint to a quart of pure turpentine to each gallon ol paint and follow with second and third coats as directed for new wood.
How to Get Good Results
1. See that the surface is perfectly dry.
2. See that all pitchy surfaces ace properly treated either by burn ing or by sealing with good Orange Shellac.
3. All knots should be carefully shellacked. 4. Make sure that the paint is mixed and stirred thoroughly be fore using.5 6 7 8 9
5. Putty nail holes and fill cracks after priming coat has been ap plied.
6. Do not use ochre as a primer.
7. Use only pure raw linseed oil when oil is necessary and never use boiled oil in any primers or for thinning SWP.
8. Do not paint in frosty weather or over a too-glossy surface.
9. Whenever possible, employ a good practical painter.
19. In damp, swampy localities avoid mildew troubles by using more turpentine and less linseed oil in thinning.
How to Estimate the Amount of SWP
Required
An approximate estimate of the quantity of SWP required can be determined as follows:
Measure the distance around the building and multiply by the average height, which secures the square feet of siding. Divide this number by 360 (the number of square feet SWP covers two coats to the gallon on the average surface). The number secured will give approximately the number of gallons of SWP to be used Cor the body.
To secure amount required for trimming cornice, porch pillars, etc., take from one-eighth to one-fifth the quantity required for body -oneeighth if there is average trimming, and one-fifth when a house has un unusual amount of heavy trim, pillars, cornices, etc.
For porch ceilings, floors, etc., ascertain the square feet by multi plying the length by the breadth and divide that number by 360.
SWP WHITES
SWP OUTSIDE GLOSS WHITE:
This paint is the most durable and economical white paint for gen eral use on all exposed surfaces.
SWP INSIDE VARNISH WHITE:
For inside work where a varnish white finish is desired. Apply over a solid ground of SWP Flat White. SWP Inside Varnish White dries bet ter, works more freely and is more economical to use than the varnish whites tinder various names, generally found on the market.
SWP FLAT WHITE:
.
A foundation for SWP Tniide Varnish Whit*. China Glosa Whit* or other enamels: or for finishing without a |{!oss. Use as many coats ns required to produce desired whiteness. This can also be used for exterior
work where a flat finish is desired.
SWP CHINA GLOSS WHITE:
A satisfactory finish for interiors onlv where economy is of the first importance. SWP Chine Gloss White is slower drying and not quite so white as SWP Inside Varnish White. It gives a washable ami durable finish-

S-W Porch and Deck Paint
There is hardly a more difficult place to keep well protected about a house than the porch floor. In addition to the exposure to weather, the porch floor does not drain off water as quickly as a vertical surface and is a collector of dirt and sand which is ground into the paint film by every one who comes up on the porch. The punishment it receives is very much the same as if you were to actually sandpaper the surface.
S-W Porch and Deck Paint is made to dry harder
than house paint so as to stand up sible under service. It is furnished pleasing floor colors, dries with a go retains its attractive appearance' worn off the surface.
It is advisable, and most econo the porch floor and steps each Spr should never be permitted to wear bare wood.
DIRECTIONS FOR USING S-W PORCH AND DECK PAINT
The surface should be clean and perfectly dry. Stir the paint thoroughly from the
bottom of the can, and brush out in thin, even coats with a bristle brush, working the
paint well into the pores of the wood. Do not apply a succeeding coat until the previous one is perfectly dry, proceeding as follows:
NEW WORK: First Coat: Thin with turpentine, one quart to a gallon of paint.
Second Coat: Reduce with about one pint of turpentine to a gallon of paint.
Third Coat: Apply paint as it comes from the can. Brush out well.
OLD WORK: Remove all loose paint. Coat all bare spots as described above for first
)
coat on new work. Let dry. Next apply a coat over entire surface, thinning the paint with about one pint of turpentine to the gallon.
Final coat shall be applied just as it comes from the can.
COVERING CAPACITY: When thinned as required by the surface. Porch and Deck Paint covers approximately 720 square feet per gallon, one coat.

S-W First Quality Colors in Oil
These are tinting colors ground in oil and are of the purest quality and greatest strength possible to produce. They are used by painters and decora tors for the very finest work because of their clarity and characteristic sharpness of tone and perma nency to light.
True economy is found in using the best quality in tinting colors. S-W First Quality Colors are ALL .COLOR. There is no loading or extending with useless filling matter. This purity of color joined with the ultimate in fineness of grinding results in a given tint being produced with the smallest amount of tinting color possible.
Sherwin-Williams are large makers of dyes and colors and, with the exception of the natural min
eral and earth colors, manufactures most of the colors from the raw material. And with the pur chasing power of the largest makers of paint and varnish in the world, Sherwin-Williams is able to control the quality of the raw materials and colors not of its own manufacture. This is of interest to the person who uses paint products in that there is the assurance that, no matter where purchased, a Sherwin-Williams Product will be dependable --the right color, the right consistency and the right quality.
A description of the different types of colors listed here is given bekfcw for those who are inter ested. The colors are 'sampled on following pages in full strength also with "let-downs" to indicate tinting power.
CHROME YELLOW
Chrome Yellow is made by precipi tating Chromate of Lead in a very fine condition and is one of the moat use ful pigments. It has a range of shade from Light Canary to Dark Orange according to the conditions under which the precipitation is made. When properly prepared this is a very durable color and ranks among the very highest for its opacity and cover ing power.
CHROME GREENS i
Chrome Greens are prepared by pre cipitating simultaneously Chrome Yellow and Chinese Blue so that an intimate chemical combination of these two colors is obtained. A wide range both of depth and character of color can be obtained from a light yellowish to a deep bluish shade. A good Chrome Green for painting pur poses must not only have strength and fastness to light, but should not float or separate and should be stable under various painting conditions. Green pigment suitable for grinding into oil
colors, must be specially selected for all these points, and undue promi nence should not be given to only one or two of them.
CHINESE AND PRUSSIAN BLUES
Chinese and Prussian Blues are prus-
siates of iron and are remarkable for
their brilliancy of tone and extreme
strength. The shade is of a charac
teristic greenish blue. These colors
have magnificent tinting power and
purity of tone. They are clear and
quite translucent when used thin or
in glaze. Chinese and Prussian Blues
are excellent for Peacock Blue and
Greens but are not suitable for violet
or orchid tints. *
'
ULTRAMARINE BLUE
Ultramarine Blue is essentially a blue glass produced by roasting clay, silica, soda and sujphur together in a crucible. The fused mass is crushed and ground to impalpable fineness. The characteristic tone is more of a purple blue than Prussian Blue and it is also not as brilliant. Ultramarine
Blue produces good violet and orchid
tint* and should be used in preference
to Prussian Blue for this purpose.
Ultramarine Blue is not as powerful
in tinting strength as Prussian Blue
but each has its place depending en
tirely upon the character of tint to be
produced.
.
ITALIAN SIENNA
Italian Sienna is an earth color and comes from Sienna in Tuscany. Raw Sienna is a characteristic yellow but when burned or calcined it becomes a rich, semi-translucent red. Raw Si enna contains the same coloring pig ment as Ochre, the principal differ ence between them being the percent age of iron. Ochre contains approxi mately 20 per cent of iron, while Raw Sienna frequently runs as high as 75 per cent iron.
Raw Sienna is used for cream tints and should be used for Colonial Yel low along with Chrome Yellow Me dium to avoid the unpleasant green ish cast characteristic of Chrome Yel low when used alone.

ITALIAN SIENNA (Continued) ^
Burnt Sienna is produced by roast ing Raw Sienna. Its characteristic feature is the extreme brilliancy which it gives to transmitted light. This makes it extremely valuable in the manufacture of stains and lacquers.
TURKEY UMBER
Turkey Umber is a native earth found largely in the island of Cyprus. It contains about 46 per cent of Oxide of Iron. Umber also carries about 15 per cent of Oxide of Manganese. This contributes to the richness of tone and is responsible for the excellent drying properties of the color.
Raw Umber is one of the most usefu^ of tinting colors, yielding soft, winq grays and assisting greatly in toning many other tints.
Burnt Umber is produced by roast ing or calcining Raw Umber. It pro duces warmer tints.
TUSCAN RED
Tuscan Red is an earth color con taining a large amount of iron oxide which has been dyed with Madder Lake, which is the fastest red known tochemists. This combination of iron oxide and brilliant red lake produces a beautiful rich color which is the most valuable and permanent of the earth pigments.
INDIAN AND VENETIAN RED
,
Indian and Venetian Reds are Irani 1
Oxides obtained by burning suitable Ochres and emecially in the Venetian
by calcining Copperas with a suitable base, usually Gypsum.
YELLOW OCHRE
Yellow Ochre is a native earth and probably no other pigment used in painting is more widely distributed or found in such exhaustless quantities as this. Yet only a small quantity is suitable for the very highest grade of painting. The Yellow Ochre we use is imported from Southern France, that being the only source of supply for gbad Ochre, so far as we know.
VANDYKE BROWN
Vandyke Brown is a bog earth color of a fine translucent quality. The color is produced, also, by calcining certain ochres found in France. Mixed with white and Raw Umber it yields agreeable taupe shades. Used for dark ening tints it produces softer shades than secured with black.

A Colorful Residence a la Espagnol
Broad expanses of wail unbroken by window* are designed to offer protection against the rigors of climate. Old Spain has her cold days with keen biting winds quite as much as the sunshine we think so characteristic. Such walls need the in terest of texture imparted by the peasant's mudboard or trowel in order to avoid monotony. Texture of color is indispensable. The rough, shaggy wall of this house was first coated with Concrete Wall Finish White tinted with Raw Sienna. When dry this was covered with an overglaze of Raw Sienna, Burnt Sienna and Paris Green thinned with Linseed Oil, Turpentine and a little drier. These colors are blended together as brushed on and then roughly wiped off with cloths before dry.

S-W Concrete Wall Finish
Interest in concrete and stucco architecture centers in two features: The design of the structure and the texture of the flat surface. Unsightly streaks and discoloration pro duced by weather and soot, quite destroy the charm of the most beautiful stucco building. Stucco is porous and re quires sealing, especially in cold climates, to prevent the appearance of hair-line cracks and flaking off, due to mois ture and frost.
S-W Concrete Wall Finish is a preservative oil paintwhich dries with a velvety dull finish, ft shows none of die objec tionable gloss peculiar to oil paints. It is furnished in White and in the pleasing line of typical stucco tints shown below.
SPECIAL SHADES
Many architects and painters prefer the tlntingof White to obtain some particular shade. S-W,First Quality Ctdors in Oil are furnished for this purpose and are to be thinned with turpentine when tinting Concrete Wall Finish.
Concrete Wall Finish Is ideal for painting brick buildings.

The sponge stippling is simple enough for any one to do and interesting enough for everyone to enjoy doing. In this color scheme Blue is the color brushed on and Ivory the color printed on with the sponge.

be done by hand, (See Illustration V, VI, and VII.) A solid stencil may be produced in one or more colors with one
or more parts. Illustration I shows a solid stencil in one part, applied in one color. Illustration II shows a solid stencil in two parts and applied in two colors. (See also illustration X.)
An outline stencil does not give a finished or completed decoration, but requires the additional work of filling in by hand after the outline is applied to the surface and is thoroughly dry.
Use a regular stencil brush. It should be clean and in good con dition. A short bristle brush is best, as the color can be rubbed into the surface to be decorated without having the bristles spread or work under the stencil. The brushes arc made in various sizes, the smaller size being more suitable for the smaller stencils. A brush one inch end a half in diameter is best for regular stencil work.

making the brush help hold down the stencil while it is applying
the color. A small stencil may be held in position with one hand.

a KITCHEN in Sunshine YELLOW
To have a "sunshiny kitchen" is the desire of many a housewife. This scheme makes it possible.
While it is a fact that actual sunshine is practically white, yellow is the color which gives out the feeling of sunshine. Our color scheme would be a bit bright for the kitchen with south exposure unless shaded by a deep porch or heavy foliage. With woodwork in Ivory, use
Enameloid Yellow for edges, the band molding, etc., with Enameloid Orange for a striping color and for such small spots as lighting fixtures, also the inside of cupboards.
For curtains use pale green scrim with white or ecru glass curtains. The lino leum floor may be warm, dark brown or a checked pattern in cream, gray and black.

Have you a kitchen that is regularly lighted with a flood of warm south and west light? Then this scheme of cool blue will be very welcome. The walls and ceiling in Oyster White may be in Enameloid for full gloss or in Semi Lustre for egg-shell gloss, using the White and tinting it just deeply enough with Raw Umber Oil Color to make a
pleasing tint. Pure white would produce
too bright a room for comfort. The color arrangement has been kept very simple. The woodwork and furniture color is de rived from the trim color, Enameloid Sky Blue, by mixing with Enameloid French Gray and adding White for a lighter tint. Peach is for the inside of cupboards and Black is for the edge for a pleasing contrast.

The high lights may be emphasized in any portion of the design by wiping with a cloth. This can be done best about one hour after the paint is applied. (Illustration VII.)
Colors can be blended very easily in outline borders.
The design will be more effective if shadows are introduced to give the design the appearance of light coming from above and to one side. This is usually accomplished by placing the shadow under the lower right hand edge of each leaf or stem.

a{Delightful GRAY KITCHEN
There is an agreeable suede quality one senses in a well planned gray color scheme lor the kitchen. The grays used must be "tempered'' or modified colors, however, not mere "black and white" Grays. Enameloid French Gray is a de lightful color. The darker Gray and the Peacock Blue trim colors serve to bring
out its quality. The striping color, Enameloid Apricot, is for emphasis and
does the same thing for the color scheme as does a bouquet of flowers on the din ing room table. Semi-Lustre was chosen for the walls and ceiling because its restful egg-shell lustre is not trying upon the eyes. A lighter tone resulting from mixing Semi-Lustre colors Silver Gray and Ivory would be better for the ceiling in a large room because of diffusing the
light more easily.

DIRECTIONS FOR USING STENCIL PATTERNS- Continued
SECTION V--Blending
In a solid stencil border it it at timet detirable to show a blending from one color into another. Illuttrationa VIII and X explain the process.
Use a separate brush for each color. Apply the darker, heavier color first (Illustration VIII) over such portions of the pattern as are to be tinted with that color. Where It is to blend into the next color, use the first color rather lightly, as indicated in Illustration VIII. Then with second brush and second color, tint that portion of the border, apply lightly over the edge of the first color, producing the effect as Illustration IX shows. Illustration X shows the border complete, but in three colors. In addition to the brushes required for each color, another brush can be used for the blending of the two colors. This will keep each brush and each color pure and make cleaning unnecessary. Blending is not essential. In fact, too much blending may produce a spotted effect. The most attractive stencil decoration is that in which the tone of the background is slightly evident through the colors of the border. A tinted effect and not a painted one is desired.
SECTION VI The Selection of the Stencil
Select a small, simple border for small low-ceilinged rooms and apply the stencil in a simple color combination. Large borders,
which permit of more intricate design and color, are best in the public buildinga where ceillnga are high and wall apacet unbroken. Select stencil patterns which will correspond in design to the style of fumishr ings used. If no particular style prevails, or when the kind of furnish ings to be introduced is not known, select a stencil which suggests no particular style or decorative period. .
SECTION VII -The Placing of the Stencil
Stencils of the type ahown in Illustration I give no difficulty to the worker. The border can be begun at one comer and carried around until the walla are covered. With patterns such u Illus tration X shows, more care must be exercised in the piecing. The full-blown flower should be centered to correspond, for example, with the center of the fireplace, the center of the built-in buffet, or, when possible, with the center of the doorway. For that reason it will be necessary to begin at the- center of each wall or at the center of the above-named features and work toward the comers. The por tion just next to the corners can be filled in with the leaf part of the stencil. Such a plan should be followed in the single motif stencil when the motifs are connected with binders or stripes.
Handling of Corners--On many of the large borders it is not de sirable to finish each comer as the work is undertaken, since the handling required to bend the stencil to fit the corner may injure the stencil. Work as closely to the corner as is possible without

SECTION VIII The Color or Combination of Colors
Use colors in the stencil border or decoration which will he harmonioua with the wall finish. On a dark wall color, low-toned tints in the border will be advisable, while on the lighter ground, lighter colors will need to be employed. On the small borders stronger color effects are, however, possible, while the larger designs having the greater amount of wall space, will need to be kept in harmony of analogy or harmony of contrast with the background color. When two or more colors are blended into each other, the blending* must be gradual and harsh contrasts avoided.
DIRECTIONS FOR USING STENCIL PATTERNS
Continued
bending the stencil. This does not mean not curving the stencil. Then carefully measure the space from the corner to the portion last applied and lay off that distance on the stencil, marking that particular part as corner one. Then lay off almost an equal distance on the other side of that point on the stencil and the same distance on the next wall. Place that particular mark on the wall and pro ceed to stencil.
When the work is finished, the four comers will not be stenciled, but four corners will be marked on the stencil pattern. The stencil can be bent carefully for each corner and the work finished. To bend the stencil so that it will fit into the corner, place the stencil on a table with a straight edge and carefully hend over its edge that part of the stencil which is the shorter end and just t the point marked comer one. then finish corner one and so on. To have the stencil in the right angle for the wall it will he necessary to mark thie back of the stencil at the corner marks, lay the stencil face down ward and then bend over the edge of the table as above described. When the stencil is then held up with the face toward one it will have the same position as the corner of the room.
Trimtnint of Stencils-- As a rule the stencils are furnished with an upper straight edge...(Illustration III) but if it is necessary to cut down any part of the stencil, the straight edge should be retained or an edge cut that is parallel with either the top of the stencil design or with a line which runs through the stencil pattern.
HELPFUL RULES
The selection as well as the proper placing of the stencil pattern to conform to the construction of the room, division, etc., is in itself a study. We feet the need of giving fundamental rules regarding
just this feature of decorating, as the improper placing has often been called to our attention.
Rule 1--Use site of borders which will correspond to the propor tion of the room. Smeller botdera ale necessary in the low-ceilinged room, while the larger design* are required in public interiors where the ceilings are often from twelve to fifteen feet high.
Rule 2--Select the character M the pattern which will conform to the character of the room, aMBr instance, employ the more con ventional designs in those rortflff which are constructed along the severe type, while the more floral patterns are suitable in those rooms
where other feature* give a suggestion of beauty of line.
Rule 3--Do not use a simpis stencil border in a room which is to
be decordted and furnished in s most elaborate style, and, vice versa,
do not use an elaborate border in a simply decorated and furnished
room.
*r W
Rule 4--Do not attempt to introduce a stencil border when the
wall is of such a character that a pattern trill only detract from the
appearance. This is true with the well which is so much , broken
and cut up by window and door spaces, other fixtures, etc.,thAt unless
the stencil is especially designed for the particular room, it cannot
he used with any great amount of freedom. Penel work in some
cases is advisable under such conditions but special stencil patterns
must be designed for this work.
ff'
,
Rule S--The color for the stencil has been handled under Section VIII. As a rule, stronger colors are best for small borders. For the larger borders, colors which harmonise with the wall color to a greater extent, are desirable.
STENCIL MEDIUM
.(*
Add one-tenth part of Stencil Medium to First Qbality Oil Colors when stenciling on fabric. This will make the color "fast" in the
fabric. As a rule the colors will not require thinnlhg for this pur pose.
FLAT-TONE GLAZING LIQUID
Glazed or "Tiffany" walls, "anttaued" enamel woodwork and fur niture, and stencil work on painted walls, enameled woodwork and furniture are at their best when the colors are mixed and thinned with S-W Flat-Tone Glazing Liquid. Glazing Liquid makes the
colors work "right." They go on easily and are easy to handle. They
dry promptly when mixed with Glazing Liquid.

Things are so much more enjoyable because of their color: The lovely shade of Flat-Tone Pale Green can be reproduced with Enameloid Lettuce Green if you prefer a glossy finish for easiest possible cleaning. Midas Green for woodwork can be "antiqued" with an over-glaze of Burnt Umber if desired. A bit of the green wall color may be mixed with the Ivory for ceiling for a softer contrast.

ORCHID GRAY
Feminine, end yet far from distasteful to a man is this excgksite arrangement in Orchid and Gray. It carries the same feeling of immaculate cleanliness one finds in Ivory or White but is ever so much easier to keep looking clean. This color scheme is neutral enough to permit its use for either north or south exposures, ft will be very friendly, however, under cold north light, especially with ecru or yellow curtains. Use Enameloid Orchid for a striping or emphasis color.

S-W FIRST QUALITY OIL COLORS
These are colors ground in oil and are furnished in paste form in large-size tubes, one-fourth pound more or less in weight, depending upon the weight of the color itself. They are used for tinting and are of the finest quality and purity of color. Glaze and Stencil Colors may be thinned with Flat-Tone Glazing Liquid for the application of stencil patterns on painted wails or n furniture. When Glazing Liquid is not available, thin with a mixture of raw linseed oil, turpentine and drier. It is not advisable to thin with turpentine alone.

Directions for Using Stencil Patterns
ON FURNITURE AND WOODWORK
Designs shown on page 76.
Stencil designs can be applied with either Glaze and Stencil Colors,
artist oil colors, or Enameloid. An advantage in using Enameloid
for stenciling on furniture is that the stencued design requires no
protecting coat of varnish, whereat the stencil applied with Glaze
tt"ii 7*enc^
should be given a coat of varnish, so that the design
will have the same gloss as the Enameloid and also to protect the
design front wearing off. Any good varnish such as S-W Scar-not,
Mar-not or Rexpar can be used for this purpose.
Glaze and Stencil Colors and also artist tube colors ere too deep in color to use in full strength for most work and usually require mixing with white to bring out the color or to make very light tints. Either white Enameloid or white stencil color can be used for this purpose.
The application of the stencil design is practically the same for furniture as for wall work, altho smaller stencil brushes (from about '2 to I inch) are used and greater care must be exercised to obtain
clean work and also so that the stencils which are necessarily delicate are not broken. A piece of glass or a plate will serve for a
pwtftt on which to mix the colors. Rub the brush into the color and then rub out the superfluous paint on the palette or a piece of
paper before applying the brush to the stencil. Hold the stencil firmly so that It is perfectly flat and tight against the surface and then brush in the color lightly at first and finish by pouncing or stippling
with the brush so the finished pattern or design will be even in color and not show brush marks.
When a stencil of two parts is used it is necessary to allow the first color to set before applying the second color, otherwise the first
is very liable to smear, it is not, however, necessary to wait
until the first color is perfectly dry, as in moat cases the paint will
set up enough in about an hour's time to permit the use of the second
part of the stencil. If stencil colors or artist tube colors are used, allow the work to stand overnight and then apply a thin coat of var nish over the design.
When two or more mixtures are used for blending or shading the
l ?w c T*' etc ' f * design, apply each mixture or color separately, blending them together with another dry brush. Very beautiful and retlUtic effects can be obtained by blending and a little experimenting will very quickly prompt the worker aa to the proper procedure.

S-W Flat-Tone -- the Washable Flat Wall
Flat-Tone dries dull with the appearance of soft velvet. It is an oil paint and can be washed with soap and water. It ah so cleans well with wallpaper cleaner
Flat-Tone is intended to be used on plaster walls, interior brick walls,wood partitions, decorator's canvas and over any of the good wall boards on the market. The effect produced over coarse burlap and over the "antique" rough plaster wall textures is rich and especially attractive.
There are a number of distinct advantages you will enjoy in Flat-Tone painted walls: First, the soft, rich beauty of the walls is permanent and non-fading; second, children's finger marks or such accidents as raining in or staining o any kind, need only to be washed off; third, the sanitary advantage of a clean, germproof wall as compared to wal paper is readily appreciated.

For sheer beauty, the simple un adorned wall in Flat-Tone has an appeal ail of its own. It is a finish anyone can apply. It does not re

"fanned out" in different directions. For particularly beautiful walls, decorators use a stippling brush to
remove all brush marks and leave a

The Use of Flat-Tone Multi-Color Stipple Effects
A SIMPLE ONE-COLOW STIPPLE EFFECT
ADJOINING ROOMS
Harmonize them with Flat-Tone
Multi-Color Effects.
,
Multi-Color stippling consists of printing one or more colors of FistTone over a foundation color of Flat-Tone that has been brushed on the wall. A sponge is used to make the print or pattern of color and all colors used, show in pattern much like a piece of tapestry.
In adjoining rooms where colors are desired to be harmonised, such as blue and green, tan and blue, etc., this is accomplished by using two colors in common in both rooms. For example: Paint both rooms with a foundation color of Flat-Tone Silver Gray and Cream. Stipple one room in Sky Blue and the other room in Bright Sage. Then stipple both rooms in Silver Gray and Ivory and they will be found to harmonize.
Helpful Suggestions for Producing S-W Flat-Tone Multi-Color Effects

information for their guidance, to 601 Canal Rood, QereUrKLXPhio.
LOADING THE SPONGE
,,
*
Do not dip the sponge Into the P*U a* paint, Pour Out some of the stipple eoior on to e board, tin, or paper, ee convenient. Rub the
sponge Into this. Thoroughly cover the bottom of the sponge. Tap off the excess paint on to a dry pert of rite paper to avoid making too
heavy end dauby e print. Have the sponge quite damp with water.
STIPPLING
Tap the well with e light, firm stroke without any twisting or turn
ing or the sponge. The first few prints with the sponge loaded with
paint should be lightly tapped, increasing the pressure as the paint
stipples out of the sponge.
Re-load the sponge frequently, so ee to keep the prime uniform.
Place each print close--almost overlapping--the .previous one.
Fill In any gap# or openings left.
'
CORNERS, ETC.: Use a smell sponge cut square for getting Into comers end other narrow, inaccessible pieces.
SECOND STIPPLE COLOR A second stipplo odor may be applied over the first stipple solar
after e half hour or more hee elapsed, or, ee In a room In a residence, se soon as the first stipple color has been applied, beginning the second color where the first stipple was started.
CLEANING THE WOODWORK When stippling, rite woodwork usually gets painted, also. Wipe this
Off within a half hour, using a soft cloth end gasoline. Do not use turpentine as this will tffect the gloss of vsrpish or enamel.
USE OF A SHIELD A shield made of tin or cardboard may be used to protect woodwork,,
the ceiling or the adjoining color of a panel
AMOUNT OF STIPPLE COLOR REOUIRED This is subject to some variation, of course, but generally speaking,
it is safe to figure on about one-eighth the amount of wall paint re quired for the two coats of foundation color as being sufficient for one stipple color.
CLEANING THE SPONGE As soon as you are done stippling, wash the sponge out in gasoline
or turpentine. When putting the sponge away, wash out with soap chips and warm water. When cleaning the sponge to use it for another stipple color, wash in gasoline end rinse in water to open up the sponge once more, for stippling.

Helpful Suggestions for Producing S-W Flat-Tone Glaze System Effects
FOUNDATION COLOR
FIRST COAT; Flat-Tone end Flat-Tone Mixinc Size in equal parts. Apply generously. Let dry 36 to 4$ hours.
SECOND COAT: Flat-Tone (in color specified for the effect chosen) with one quart Flat-Tone Mixing Size added to the gallon.
THIRD COAT: Flat-Tone, with one quart Flat-Tone Mixing Size added to the gallon.
GLAZE OR FINISHING COAT
Tinting Flat-Tone Glazing Liquid (two color effect chosen aa example). Pour Glazing Liquid into two clean paile and tint to the desired depth of color with S-W First Quality Colors in Oil. Tint both mixtures to the same strength of color. Work the tinting color into the Glazing Liquid with the brush. Use 3-in. or 3H-ln. bristle brushes for glazing walls.
APPLYING
First Color: Take a wall apace four or Are feet wide--from ceiling to floor. Brush on the stronger color in IRREGULAR SPOTS. Use aa much color aa room seems to require.
Sceond Color: Fill In all the remaining apace with the second color-- overlapping with the firet color, somewhat. Is desirable.
BLENDING THE COLORS TOGETHER
Blend the colors together by brushing through the colors and running the colors thoroughly together at the edges BEFORE STIPPLING with the cloth.
STIPPLING FOR TEXTURE
.
An interesting, rough-testured wall effect is obtained by using the cloth wrinkled in the hand aa illustrated.. For a smoother texture, uee the cloth in a rather smooth pad and simply tap the wall without any twitting motion. Stippling with a stippling brush results in a still smoother texture.
FOR A BLENDED EFFECT
Tint two separate batches of Glazing Liquid. Make the firet batch of the tint desired for the upper wall and the second, the deeper tone, for the lower wall. Brush on the light tint extending from the celling to within about three feet of the floor. Then brush the dtrker color from the bottom up Into the light tint, blending off with the brush and stipple aa directed. Do not attempt to cover too great a surface before stippling. Avoid working In e draught. Keep windows closed if necessary.
CORNERS AND INACCESSIBLE PLACES Touch up the comers and alongside woodwork with a dry brush.
WIPING WOODWORK
A shield made of galvanised iron or cardboard is a moat handy tool to permit wiping the .woodwork easily without marring the stippled wall. Can also be used to protect the ceiling or other surfaces when stippling up close with the cloth.

SHERWIN-WILLIAMS VARNISHES
Sherwin-Williams are the biggest makers of varnish in the world.
To be the biggest in any field, however, carries with it the obligation to be the best, also. And no organization of men can BE best unless it has a code of principles and LIVES up to that code.
There is no short cut through machinery to the making of good varnish. It is very largely a hand made, closely supervised process.
There is a definite, predetermined way of cooking the varnish gums and oils and the length of tape for the chemical reactions to be completed in the kettle, cannot be hastened.
Machine powered filter presses remove all the foreign matter, but months are consumed before the varnish is pronounced sufficiently aged and ripened in the storage tanks to be filled into the can for use.
Varnish which has been properly aged LOOKS no different than other var nish as you use it. But it flows out smoother, dries better and harder and has more durability than "green" varnish. The investment required to carry many months' advance supply of varnish in aging tanks is enormous, but there is no other way to safeguard the interests of those who depend upon Sherwin-Williams Varnishes as the best.
The making of varnish calls for the best of care and the most rigid inspec tion throughout the many, many steps all along the line. Sherwin-Williams Varnishes are uniform. You can buy a can of Sherwin-Williams Varnish any where from New York to Honolulu with the certainty that it will be the correct varnish for the purpose recommended. It will be good varnish, it will produce a handsome finish and it will give the greatest possible service.

Sherwin-Williams Mar-not Varnish
Mar-not Varnish is made to give service on all kinds of wood floors and on printed linoleum. In our opinion it is the very best varnish possible to make for floors.
There are two faults a floor varnish must not show: 1. It must not be brittle. 2. It must not be sensitive to water.
Toughness
Water Resistance
Mat-mot will hotftfrwder white or chip off even though scratched. You can hammer or dent the wood, but Mar-not will not chip off.
The body of Mar-not Varnish, which is of medium thickness, is much tougher than a heavy bodied varnish which might seem to give a fuller, richer film when new. Such a varnish, however, would offer an easy target for heel marks and scuffing.
Painters call Mar-not a "strong-drying" varnish. It dries thoroughly and dries hard enough over night, under normal conditions, to permit walking on the day after applying, if necessary.
A leaking radiator or raining in at the window will not discolor Marnot. Mar-not has not quite the resistance to water of a spar varnish when submerged over a long period, but it will stand more water than your floor will ever see, and has much greater toughness and resistance to footwear and bruising than a spar varnish.
Gloss
A rich lustre is desired for the varnished floor rather than the sharp gloss favored in a furniture varnish. A high gloss shows scratches quickly on a floor causing it to take on a cheap appearance. Mar-not looks well when new and continues to look well as it wears.
Dull Finish
A dull-rubbed finish can be produced with Mar-not which is posi
Mar-not
tively beautiful. Simply rub the final coat with powdered pumice stone
Satin Finish and rubbing oil, or apply a final coat of Mar-not Satin Finish.
How Much Mar-not
A room 12 x IS hot takes about 3 quarts Mar-not for two coats.
A bathroom S x 10 feet takes about 1 quart Mar-not for two coats. A kitchen 10 x 12 feet takes about 2 quarts Mar-not for two coats. > Divide these quantities in half for the quantity required for one finishing coat of Marnot Satin Finish Varnish.

Some Necessary Things To Do To Obtain a Beautiful Floor
A new floor should be scraped smooth and sandpapered or dressed down carefully with a machine floor-surfacer. No floor varnish can make a rough floor smooth. Shavings and dust must be conscientiously swept out.
FILLING THE FLOOR
Oak and similar open-grain woods require Ail ing with Sherwin-Williams Paste Wood Filler. This is necessary as the varnish would otherwise sink into the pores of the wood. This results in a surface which not only looks poorly varnished but wears shabby quicker.
CLOSE-GRAIN WOODS
Pine, maple and close-grain woods require no filler.
Under no circumstances should shellac or a "liquid filler" be used on a floor to be finished in varnish.
CARE OF FLOORS
Mar-not Varnish keeps a floor looking well as long as there is the thinnest film of it left on the wood. Doorways and passages which receive the hardest usage, however, wear through while other parts under normal wear still look as good as new. Make a practice of washing up these spots and applying a coat of Mar-not before the varnish is worn through to the wood.
Use Sherwin-Williams Flaxoap, a pure linseed oil soap, for keeping the varnish floors in order. Flaxoap leaves the varnish "smiling" and, too, hands will be quite grateful.

STAINING FLOORS
FILLING FLOORS
The housewife favors a light colored floor be cause it looks bright and clean and does not show dust. Good decoration, however, prefers that the bright color of the natural wood be toned down by staining.
To stain a new floor, use S-W Oil Stain applied to the bare wood after scraping and sanding smooth. Wipe off as directed on the package. Oil Stains do not require a sealing coat before var nishing. Let dry over night.
(For Oak and Open-Grain Woods)
S-W Paste Wood Filler comes in paste form and is to be thinned down to creamy, brushing con
sistency with benzine.
Brush the filler well into the wood and let
stand a few minutes until partly set, indicated
by the "flatting out" of the wet gloss.
`
Remove the excess filler by scrubbing across the grain with burlap, excelsior or shavings and then wipe clean with a cloth.
For open-grain woods apply S-W Paste Wood Filler directly over the stain coat, when dry.
Let dry for 48 hours before varnishing. Do not sandpaper dark colored Paste Wood Filler.
Dark colored Paste Wood Fillers stain the wood and soften down the color very satisfactorily, fre quently making staining not necessary.
S-W Paste Wood Fillers come in Natural Oak or Transparent Golden Oak, Mahogany and
American Walnut.

S-W Scar-not Varnish
Full Rich Gloss - May be Rubbed Dull
Characteristics
An extremely hard finish is required for wood work and furniture which will take and HOLD either a fine-textured high polish or a satiny dullrubbed finish. Any good furniture varnish can be rubbed or polished, but Scar-not has the added advantage of an unusual toughness. It does not powder white when scratched.
Hot water does not affect Scar-not and ordi nary heat of warm dishes will not cause it to print. Scar-not is full in body and produces a rich and extremely durable finish for woodwork and furniture.
S-W Velvet Finish Varnish
No. 1044
Dries to a Dull Finish Without Rubbing
A satin finish is very pleasing and desirable for both woodwork and furniture. Velvet Finish 1044 is applied in the same manner as varnish but dries dull without rubbing. It is intended to be used as a finishing coat, only, because while it is durable and satisfactory in every way, it is not intended as a protective coat. It is not made for floors. Velvet Finish 1044 may be used over Scarnot instead of hand rubbing or directly over the Shellac sealing coat for a simple wood-finish effect.

Some Things to Do to Get Beautiful Varnished Woodwork
Like the much advertised "school girl complex ion," the beauty of a varnish finish must come from the inside, out. Varnish applied over a dirty unsmoothed surface has no more chance to be beautiful than it is possible for face powder ap plied to a pimply face to reproduce the velvety roses in the school girl's cheek.
The actual application of the varnish can be explained in a few words:
NEW WORK Sandpaper--sandpaper--sandpaper! The principal reason why your piano finish is so much superior to the average woodwork is careful sandpapering and clean brushes. Sandpaper the wood smooth and then take Number 0 sandpaper, and sandpaper it smoother! Always rub
"with" the grain. ,
SOME WOODWORK-FINISH ING "DONT'S"
HOW TO APPLY VARNISH
Brush the varnish three ways as follows:
First, apply the varnish gener ously, laying it on in the direction of the grain.
Second, scrape the brush dry and "lay off" the surface; that is, brush straight across the grain. Brush from edge to edge. This spreads the varnish out to an even film, cover ing any spots you may have missed the first time.
Third, "straighten out" the sur face by brushing once more "with" the grain.
& 1
iMi, V
Sear-not i$ a rugged varni&h
Don't install woodwork in a damp house--wait until the piaster if ab
solutely dry. . Don't permit finishing lumber
to be delivered or stored in a deiidi house. Dampness raises the grain of the spodd, making it rough and also causing warping.
Don't use water stains on soft wodd.
Don't apply any stain until you try it out on a sample of your own lumber.
Don't heglect to paint the back of woodwork with lead and oil before it is nailed in place.
Don't let COST prevent your fill ing open-grain woods.
HOW TO PREPARE THE SURFACE
Surfaces Previously Varnished
Wash clean with soap and water, dry and' wipe off with gasoline.
Sandpaper the surface to a DULL smooth finish.
If the varnish is cracked or checked, or if it is badly scratched, remove the old finish with Taxite, paint and varnish remover, wash with benzine and start afresh, as for new work. When Taxiting moldings, grooves or carv ing, use a small vegetable brush dipped in the remover.
Don't use a cheap varnish brush. A good brush will pay for itself in time saved and better results.
Don't use a shellac brush for anything except shellac.
Don't leave brushes standing in water. Wash them out in turpentine, rinse in benzine and put away.
Don't use cheap varnish on anything. If it's worth varnishing at all, it's deserving of good varnish. The saving in varnishing a chair with cheap varnish instead of good varnish is too small to figure--you can estimate the loss yourself when the poor varnish gives out and needs refinishing.
Directions for Varnishing Woodwork and niture with Scar-not Varnish
14) For OPEN-GRAIN WOODS, only. FILLER. Apply S-W Paste Wood Filler. Follow tame direction*
. given for filler under Mar-not Varnish, page 111. NOTE--Cloae-grain wood*, like pine and gumwood require no filler. Do not u*e a liquid filler.
<2) Duct off thoroughly, uting a ducting bruth. Never ute a cloth a* it will leave lint.
(5) SEALING COAT, required over
Stain* only. Theae atain* require a ceding coot to prevent "bleeding" of the ctain into the vamidt. Apply one coat of thin white shellac (reduced SO per cent with denatured alcohol). Let dry over
night and *and lightly but care fully with No. 00 sandpaper.
(3) Optional.
Stain, if desired.
Apply one coat of -Handcraft
Stain and let dry over night.
Doea not raise the grain or re
quire sanding. Wiping is not
necessary. Suitable for either
hard or soft woods.
NOTE--Reduce with Handcraft Stain Reducer if too dark..
(3a) Optional. For fine hardwood finishing S-W Acid Stains are preferred by many decorators.
First Operation: Sponge the wood with dear cold water and let dry. Sand smooth, finishing with No. 0 sandpaper.
(3b) Optional.
Apply one coat of S-W Acid Stain
and let dry.
NOTE--Reduce stain with water
if too dark. For hardwood only.
When dry, sand smooth with No.
00 sandpaper.
.
IF NECESSARY. apply a second
coat of stain reduced SO per cent
, with water. Let dry and sand
very lightly with No. 00 sand
paper.
'
(6) FIRST COAT--Scar-not Varnish, reduced with one pint pure tur pentine to the gallon. Let dry 49 hours and sand smooth with No. 00 sandpaper to remove doss and "nlba. SECOND COAT--Scar-not Var nish. Apply without reducing. Let dry 49 hours and sand smooth with No. 00 sandpaper. Remove gloss and "nibs." THIRD COAT -- Scar-not Var nish. Apply without reduction. Let dry 49 hours.
Optional. (7) RUBBING (Dull).
A hand-rubbed dull finish shows a refinement of beauty that ia worth every bit of the extra labor entailed. Powdered pumice stone and rub bing oil produce a dull effect. Make a soft pad of cloth or use a regular felt nibbing block. Only a few strokes are necessary, just sufficient to knock the gloat. Use a small vegetable brush dip ped Into the otl and pumice for rubbing mouldings and carv ing.
Optional.
<8) POLISHING--
Rub with powdered pumice stone and water to a dull smooth sur face. Polish with S-W Pollah-ol and rotten stone or tripoli.

Sherwin-Williams Rexpar Varnish
On every hand the home owner hears of "spar" varnishes. In every magazine he sees this or that or some other "spar" varnish advocated as the best varnish for home requirements. What is it all about what is a "spar" varnish?
It is a varnish made to endure outside exposure for the longest possible time where the varnished surface is exposed to the sun's rays, rain, hail, snow, ice and extreme variations in tempera ture. Of course, the spar varnish of today is a definite improvement over the spar varnish of by-gone days. In those early days vessel owners demanded a clear varnish to protect the spars of their ships and the name "spar" IS iMl used to designate that type at varnish. Today's spar varnish dries quicker and harder so mat you can use it on your front door without putting it out of service for a week.
But nevertheless, a spar varnish still is a var nish designed primarily to withstand,weather and not to finish pianos, furniture and floors. A spar varnish has the following characteristics:
1. Contain* a much larger proportion of oil than other varnishes.
2. Dries elastic to be able to expand fcttA daintract without aracldng under aitrone variations of temperature.
3. Is waterproof even when Submerged in water for a long time.
There are some fhingtjla spar varnish'Hoes not do AS WELL as varnishes made specifically for certain purposes:
1. It does not dry as HARD or as tough as a good floor varnish and, of course* will not wear as well or look aa well a* a good floor varnish.
2. It does not dry as hard and as resistant to heat as a good furniture varnish. It will withstand boiling water, but the tablecloth will "print under hot dishes.
3. It cannot be polished like a good furniture or woodwork varnish.
There are some things a Spar varnish will do ever so much bettei; than any other varnish
can do:
1. It resists water in all forms and remains beauti
ful where other varnishes would turn white and
i- ? perish.
.
2.' It,expands and contract* freely, where other varrushes would check and crack.

We recommend Rexpar Vamlah.
THE EFFECT OF COLD UPON A BRITTLE VAR NISH.
One expects to protect a furniture vamian from extreme* of heat and cold, but exterior vamiahea cannot be so protected. Cold produce* tension in the vamlah film which tends to tear it apart. -
We recommend Rexpar Vamlah.
CHAPPING FROM RAIN AND WIND.
Rain water is a great oivent. It is "soft" water and readily dissolves any thing affected by water or soluble in it. Rain water, therefore, frequently con tains ammonia and sulfur compounds taken up from the air, smoke, etc., which are highly destructive to a varnish film.
We recommend Rexpar Varnish.

GAS FUMES CHECK A VARNISH IMPROPERLY MADE.
Cooking with gat and the exhaust fumes of an automobile or airplane are destructive to varnish. A successful spar varnish must be moat carefully formulated to resist gas fumea both while drymg and after application.

WATER RESISTANCE.
Boats and canoes teat a par vamlah because of continuous submergence in water and because, in addition, boats get con siderable scuffing and bumping about, ror your motor boat and your canoe--

THE TOUGHEST TEST OF ALL.
Saab and window tills become Hooded with con densed moisture and frost from the window*. The tun then beats cruelly hot through the glass, often making the wood too hot for the hand. You need not have shabby window*.
We recommend Rexpar Vamiah for the job.
HOW TO USE REXPAR VARNISH

WHY WOODS ARE STAINED
ADVANTAGES--
(1) The natural color of the wood is very seldom suit able to the decorative scheme.
(1) Handcraft Stains produce richer, cleaner and deeper tones than can be obtained in most other stains.
(2) Staining brings out hidden beauties of the wood by disclosing nigh lights and by developing deep tones not discemable in the wood before staining.
With the single outstanding exception of gumwood, the structure of all woods shows great variation in density throughout. There are softer areas which the stain pene trates deeply, right next fwhard parts which the stain affects but lightly. It is tnis play pi light and shade in finished wood which holds our interest and Which it Is the function of the stain to accentuate.
HARDWOODS AND SOFTWOODS
The principal hardwoods ingeneral toe arqoalcrnahifly any, walnut, chestnut, bihcn, mapleind gum. The com monest softwoods are pine, fir, popUp cypress, cedar and redwood.
Because of their greater durability and superior beauty, hardwoods are used for woodwork trim and for floors except where cost makes the use of less costly softwoods imperative. ' . '
(2) The grain of the wood is not raised, as with Water
Stains.
,
(3) Wiping is not necessary, as with Oil Stains.
Handcraft Staint require a sealing coat of white ihellac to prevent blooding of the itain into the Hnithing coato.
F,. `
if
ACID STAINS--WATER TYPE
'
Water soluble dyes are the' most permanent wood dyes obtainable and consequently, S-W Acid Stains are prac
tically non-fading under all conditions.
Water Stains, of course, raise the grain of the wood. This characteristic nustaltstas Sandpapering after stain*P ing (see oitnpiete ditactitoto oh page 127), but the beauty'j of tone and permanence of color justify this additional cost on qpality work.
Acid Staino ohould never be used on toftwoodi. Water
producer a ridgy effect with toftwood which cannot be
tandpapered out.
Hardwoods offer greater latitude in finishing than eoft-
woods. With the exception of maple and gum, hardWaoda
have open pores, following the figure of the grain, which
are most useful to the finisher. In these pores he places
fillers which may be any desired color that will produce
a beautiful effect in the pattern of the grain. , _
.
With Silver Gray Stain a white or dull gray filler Or toner is used.
Mahogany requires a red-black filler.
Walnut needs a brown-black filler.
Silver and gold bronzes are used for certain effects.
Any type of Sherwin-Williams interior wood stain can be used with safety on hardwood.
Softwoods should be finished with oil stains only.
$L STAINS--PIGMENT TYPE
ADVANTAGES--
(1) Oil Stains (with the except*#! of Rich Mahogany and Brown Mahogany) do not require the application of a sealing coat of shellac, as do Spirit Stains and Acid Stains. For this reason, Oil Stains are specified where floors are to be stained for varnish finish and also for ex terior woodwork which is to be stained and varnished.
Shellac ihould never be used on a floor that it to be varnithed, nor for exterior varnithed work of any hind.
(2) Oil Stains do not penetrate as rapidly as Spirit and Acid Stains. This makes them ideal stains for use on soft woods. Oil Stains can also be blended easily for "antique" panel work.
WHAT THE CHARACTERISTICS OF THE DIFFERENT STAINS ARE
HANDCRAFT STAINS-3PIRIT PENETRATING
These stains consist of spirit-soluble dyes in a power fully penetrating liquid which carries the color into the wood and evaporates, leaving the wood dyed to a rich, clear and relatively permanent, non-fading tone.
(3) Oil Stains are wiped, which enables the finisher to more easily control the depth of stain where one board may be much lighter or darker than the next one.
(4) Oil Stains are the cheapest good itain you can buy. They are uniform and more dependable than any hand-mixed stain can be.

(See page 131)
FLO-LAC VARNISH STAIN--
The stains previously described, Handcraft, Acid and Oil Stains, are all intended to be used on new, unfinished wood only. Flo-Lac Varnish Stain may also be used on unfinished wood but its greatest usefulness is found on varnished woodwork and furniture.
FADED WOODWORK AND FURNITURE
TO DARKEN VARNISHED WOODWORK AND FURNITURE--
It is not always convenient, or desirable, to clean off the old finish on woodwork and furniture done in varnish finish, as would be necessary if the wood were to be stained with the stains previously described.
Flo-Lac is a vamiah stain intended to be applied over a varnish finish in the Seme way as you would apply varnish. The only preparation of the surface required is to wash it clean with soap and water--use S-W Flaxoap, a pure linseed oil soap. Sandpaper carefully to dull the gloss of the old finish and to smooth up any rough spots.
WHAT YOU CAN DO WITH FLO-LAC--
Wood finished in Natural or any light color, such as Light Golden or Fumed Oak color can be darkened with any color of Flo-Lac Jfti<u may select. Golden Ofck wood work or furniture can be made to match and harmon ize with Dark Oak, Walnut or Mahogany, and still show the grain of the wood.
Flo-Lac Mahogany will freshen up faded mahogany woodwork in a delightful way. Flo-Lac is more than just a convenient finish. It is absolutely a first q|||iity varnish finish, handsome, durable, water-resisting and long-lived.
TO CHANGE THE COLOR WITH FLO-LAC--
Flo-Lac colors are translucent. You can see the grain of the wood through Flo-Lac. Therefore, if you have dark woodwork which must be made over to light colored, varnished woodwork; or if you have green woodwork to be made over to Walnut or Mahogany color, etc., you accom plish this by hiding the old finish with two coats of FloLac Ground Color.
FLO-LAC GROUND COLOR--ITS USES-
Flo-Lac Ground Color is an opaque finish which pro duces a color approximately like that of natural, un finished wood. It is used on Ro o t s , woodwork and fur niture when the finish is too badly discolored or marred to varnish or when a complete change of color, as from a dark to a light shade, is required.
TOdiiANl&llteGiiiu^
Flo-Lac Ground Color also makes it possible to change the character of the wood grain. For example: The char acteristic angular grain of pine would not harmonize with the refined markings of walnvt.or mahogany. After hid ing (he pine with Flo-Lab Ground Color, the surface may be grained to represent the more costly woods with S-W Graining Preparation and standard graining tools or the first coat of Flo-Lac, in the color selected, may be given a simple wavy grain effect which will be unobtrusive and in good taste. This is accomplished by drawing an 'old worn whisk broom through the first coat of Flo-Lac while it is still wet.

Peasant homes have furnished many valuable architectural treatments. Thatched roof effects produce a feeling of massive simplicity and can be effec tively reproduced in stained wood shingles. Medium brown is advised-- Preservative Shingle Stain B-47.

The loose, shaggy appearance of these "staggered" shingles is especially desirable for the rambling, informal dwelling. Straight, formal courses of shingles would appear most awkward with irregular spacing of windows and in broken wall spaces.
The Beauty of Stained Shingle
Effects
Wood shingles should not be painted except where it is neces sary to restore them to a lighter color or where they have become too badly discolored, through weathering, to permit staining for the required shade.
The beauty .of wood shingles lies in their rough-sawn woody texture, a quality which maintains the popularity of the oldfashioned wood shingle in face of the numerous manufactured shingles on the market, available in all colors.
RETAIN THE TEXTURE--
S-W Preservative Shingle Stains retain the texture of the wood.
The grain and the variations of thejrood are seen through the stain. Paint clogs up this texture aiV causes shingles to appear very much like ordinary wood siding.
These stains fill the wood with preservative, rot-preventingoils and carry the color well
into the wood to resist the
washing of rain. Destructive -
ants are also warded Off by
staining with S-W Preservative
Shingle Stains.
S-W Preservative Shingle Stains arcnon-poisonous. They
are not injurious to the work man applying them and water may beused noma roof stained
with them after the first two
or three rains have been per mitted to run off.

"Mildly staggered" shingles can be used wherever etraight courses might ordinarily be employed. They simply express a feeling for individuality and take away the sense of severe formality left by a rigid adherence to straight coursee.

S-W Old Dutch Enamel
A FULL-OIL ENAMEL OF THE HIGHEST QUALITY SUPREME IN PURITY OF TONE DEPTH OF LUSTRE, A LIFE TIME ENAMEL FOR BOTH INTERIOR AND EXTERIOR
Old Dutch Enamel is a most unusual product. It is the finest finish human ingenuity and skill can produce. It is also the most durable finish it is possible to produce.
In contradistinction to varnish enamels, fine as they are. Old Dutch Enamel is a full-oil enamel. The treated oil used in Old Dutch Enamel is water-white and of a rich syrupy consistency which gives Old Dutch Enamel its porcelain like smoothness and the lustrous depth of tone for which it is famous.
Old Dutch Enamel is the last word in enamels for interior woodwork because of its sheer beauty and its astonishing toughness, hardness and resistance to wear. Its durability may be measured by the fact that Sherwin-Williams recom mends it for use on surfaces exposed to the weather.
HOW MUCH DOES IT COST to use the best there is in enamels, more than you would have to pay for an ordinary enamel?
Take as an example, a living room front door, a closet door, double windo into the dining room and the sun parl be enameled will figure up to about 2 would use about one gallon of enamel i work, doors, windows, etc., two coats.
Suppose, for example, that Old D coat as much as 52.00 more a gallo enamel you might consider. For 12.00 would be just the same for both enam woodwork as beautiful at the end of te and during the entire time, would b more beautiful finish.

These coats follow directly after the priming coat and are fol lowed by the coat of equal parts Enameloid and Flat-Rite (second coat of the three-coat system.)
Importance of a Good Brush
Brush marks become especially conspicuous In enamel work. Two precautions will help avoid them:
First: Purchase the best quality fine bristle brush you can get. Even a professional finisher cennot produce a good enamel finish with s chesp, coarse brush.
Second: Use the correct enamel undercoater, Flat-Rite. Stir it thoroughly and add oil and turpentine aa directed so that the materials will woric as they should and flow out aa smoothly aa possible.
Importance of Sandpapering
The big difference between the finish on your piano and the average amateur lob of woodwork or furniture finishing is simply the result of care ful sandpapering and the use of clean brushes. Take time to sandpaper carefully. Rub out all rough spots or specks of dust and level off brush marks. Avoid sandpapering through the edges.
Note: Be sure that your brush Is dean. New brushes arc usually dusty.
Tinting the Undercoater
Use S-W First Quality Oil Colors when special tints of enamel or undercoater are desired. Tint ing the Flat-Rite Undercoater to match the color of the enamel gives a more beautiful, richer finish.

DIRECTIONS
PREPARING SURFACE
.
Surface to be finished must be free of dirt, grease, oil or loose paint. Be sure no dirt or grease remains in comers
and crevices. Wash with benzine. Remove all rust spots with sandpaper.
OLD SURFACES
Refinishing (Either Wood or Metal)
Bare or very badly worn places should be sandpapered smooth and "touched up" with the Finish thinned slightly with turpentine. When these places are dry, one coat will cover solidly on any proper surface or over any color and give excellent results, except White, Ivory and Maroon, which will require two coats unless applied over a similar color.
One coat must be thoroughly dry before applying another.
Sand lightly between coats with 00 sandpaper, and be sure to dust clean.
NEW SURFACES
New or unfinished metal surfaces should be given a first coat of S-W Auto Enamel Primer.
New or unfinished wood surfaces should be given a first coat of Auto Enamel thinned slightly with pure turpentine.
Then when dry apply S-W Auto Enamel as directed.
DRYING TIME
Under normal drying conditions S-W Auto Enamel will dry to handle in three to five hours and may be recoated the same day. Cold, damp or muggy weather slows up drying.
GENERAL HINTS
It is desirable to apply the Finish in a room free from dust.
Dampening floor and walls of a garage will prevent dust.
We recommend a good 2" or l}.'" bristle brush.
Make sure that brushes used are clean, free from dust and grit.
If the Finish becomes too thick to brush freely, add a
very little turpentine well stirred in.

SHERWIN-WILLIAMS AUTO TOP DRESSING
Sherwin - Williams Auto Top Dressing is a rich black finish that
dries rapidly leaving the autfaoc
covered and in a flexible condition
rather than hard and stiff. Thia
dressing may be used successfully
on all kinds of auto tope as well as
on tire covers, side curtains and
other objects made of or coveredwith
imitation leather, mohair, penta-
sote, etc. It brushes out very easily
leaving a nicely smoothed surface
free from all brush marks.
It is advisable, when the article to be done is dirty, to wash it thoroughly with soap and water allowing plenty of time for the surface to dry so the dressing will get a good hold on it. On a warm day S-W Auto Top Dressing requires only about two or three hours to dry to a hard, usable finish.
When applied to mohair, Auto Top Dressing dries to a
rich dull black. Over imitation leather it produces an egg shell lustre.
QUANTITY REQUIRED
One pint of S-W Auto Top Dressing will refinish top and side curtains of an ordinary touring car, and provide two finishes for the average roadster.
One-half pint will refinish tht top of the average closed car. :

Helpful Suggestions for the Person Who Intends to Paint His Own Car
Sherwin-Williams Auto Enamel is made especially for the refinishing of automobiles by the owner.
To secure the very finest finish, a car should, of course, be sent to a professional finishing shop. However, this frequently is not possible on account of the fact that the use of the car cannot be dispensed with by the owner for a sufficient length of time to have the work done.
If the following suggestions and directions are followed, the automobile owner can refinish his car himself and secure results that will compare favorably with jobs turned out in the average paint shop and still only be deprived of the use' of his car for a day or two.
Experience is not necessary, but it should be remembered
that in refinishing a car, as in everything else, the beauty
of the finish and the success of the job will be commensur
ate with the amount of care taken in preparation and fin
ishing.
DIRECTIONS
PREPARING THE WORK ROOM--First remove any old tires, oil cans, etc.; knock down sny cobwebs, then sweep the walls and floor, see that the windows are closed and sprinkle water on the floor to lay dust particles.
PREPARATION OF CAR FOR REFINISHING--Remove door hand les, curtain fasteners, top brackets and spare tires. Next wash the body thoroughly with a pure linseed oil soap, such as Sherwin-Willisms Flexoap, and remove all tar and pitch with kerosene. Clean the chassis and underparts thoroughly, and remove all grease from around the hubs, springs, axles and joints with gasoline and an old brush. If possible, have the car steam cleaned. It will save time.
SANDING AND "TOUCH UP" WORK--Remove the hood, and thor oughly sand all surfaces with No. ^ sandpaper to level off any broken, rusted or raised spots. Dust off carefully all bare spots and touch up with Sherwin-Williams Auto Enamel of the desired color, using a camel's hair pencil. Where the finish on the automobile is badly checked and cracked, a coat of Sherwin-Willisms Auto Enamel Primer should be applied with a two-inch camel's hair brush. When dry, sand lightly with No. \\ sandpaper and dust off thoroughly.
SPRINGS, AXLES AND UNDERPARTS--Next apply a coat of SherwinWilliams Auto Enamel, Black, to the springs, axles and underparts of the fenders, being careful not to smear the wheels. This is their only
coat, flf a mixture of three parts denatured alcohol and one part shellac is applied to these parts and allowed to dry for about five minutes before painting, it will prevent grease becoming mixed with the Auto Enamel).
TOP BOWS, JOINTS, WINDSHIELD FRAMES, ETC.--Sand the top hows, joints, windshield frames, etc., thoroughly with No. H sandpaper, dust off and apply a coat of Sherwin-Williams Auto Enamel Black, one coat only being necessary for these parts.
BODY AND WHEELS--Dust off thoroughly and apply a liberal coat of Sherwin-WUIiama Auto Enamel to body and wheels, using the desired color for each. In doing the wheels they should be jacked up one at a time.
THE HOOD--Having previously removed the hood, wash it thoroughly inside and out with gasoline. Sand thoroughly with No. sandpaper, wipe off with a clean dry cloth, and apply the shellac-alcohol mixture previously referred to, around the hinges, handles, crevices and other places where pease is liable to lodge. Then apply a liberal coat of Sher win-Williams Auto Enamel of the desired color. When finishing the hood, stand it on a barrel or box, small end down, and fold it inside out to dry.
RADIATORS, LAMPS AND FENDERS-Give these parts one coat of Sherwin-Williams Auto Enamel Black.
NOTE--Usually the hood, lamps, radiator frame and fenders are finished with a baked japan finish. If this finish is still in good condi tion, do not refinlsh with enamel. Merely touch up the rust spots with black enamel, allow same to dry, sand lightly with No. sandpaper, and then apply a coat of Sherwin-Williams Clear Auto Enamel in which onesixth the amount of Sherwin-Williams Auto Enamel Black, has been incorporated.
THE TOP--The top should be refinished with Sherwin-Williams Auto Top Dressing (unless it Is a closed car with a metal top. In which case finish in the same way as the body).
DRYING--The car is now ready to be driven, except foe the drying,
unless an extra fine and durable finish is desired, which is secured by
applying a final coat 6f clear varnish over the first coat. If car is not to be varnished allow 36 to 48 hour* for drying, if possible, but under no
circumstances less than 24 hours.
.

S-W Antydamp
FOR DAMP-PROOFING FOUNDATIONS
Sherwin-Williams Antydamp is a very heavy black paint which is applied to the exterior of concrete and masonry foundations below ground level to damp-proof basement walls.
Antydamp comes in proper consistency for application without heating, but in very cold weather the material is easier to handle when warmed. This should be done by placing the container into a tub of hot water, w-
DO NOT PUT ANTYDAMP DIRECTLY ONTO A FIRE
Antydamp remains elastic indefinitely and does not harden to crack, even in cold weather. It will effectively exclude moisture normally in the soil but where water is continually present in the soil around the foundation special treatment is required.
DIRECTIONS FOR REGULAR USE OF ANTYDAMP
Have the excavation made large enough to permit free access to foundation walls on the outside clear to the bottom. Let dry thoroughly and apply a full coat of Anty damp, using a threeor four-knot brush.
Allow to harden for twenty - four hours and apply a second coat of Antydamp in the same manner, al lowing twenty-four to forty-eight hours for hardening before backfilling with earth.

Plaster Bond dries rather slowly. after application it is in a tacky condi desirable for the application of plaste dries out, the Plaster Bond also dries r tenacious bond.
The economy of using Plaster Bond waits are rendered proof against pene and resultant staining and loosening o
WHERE WATER IS CONTINUALLY PRESENT IN THE SOIL
There ia.no damp-proofing system possible which will take the place of proper drainage, with necessary drain tile placed outside of the foundation footing and con nected with the sewer. This is fundamental, just as it is necessary to provide soil drainage with a blanket of cin ders placed between the soil and the wall.
THE MEMBRANE SYSTEM
This consists of alternating coats of Antydanyp with felt waterproofing paper, applied while the Antydamp is tacky, to assure adhesion. This system effectively insulates the foundation wall with an impervious shell of water-tight material and is the only method that is dependable.
COVERING CAPACITY: Antydamp covers approximately 40 square feet, one coat, per gallon.
Furring and lathing of walls is el attendant advantage of disposing of fire ing places for vermin, to say nothing of the material cost of lathing and the ing it.
Plaster Bond covers approximately 3 gallon, more or less, depending upon surface.

Rogers Brushing Lacquer
How many times have you put up with a worn, shabby floor because you dreaded the "mess" of painting? And how many times have you window-shopped with hungry eyes, wishing that you might find courage to do over some of the furniture at home in the new vogue?
Rogers Brushing Lacquer will do these things for you because it "Dries while you wait."
It means that you can now--
Lacquer the floor and, in less than an hour, move the rugs and furniture back into place onto a hard, lus trous, durable and handsome floor.
Lacquer the table, prepare the meal and serve it on the new finish.
Put the kiddies to bed for their afternoon nap. Lacquer their toys and they will be ready for use when the children awake, brilliant, sanitary and enjoyable all over again.
Lacquer the stairway, read the evening paper and walk up over the new finish when you're ready to go to bed.
In fact you can Lacquer an endless number of things about the house. And you can Lacquer all these things conveniently, without the bother of sticky surfaces and without taking the things out of service.
!. .
Rogers Brushing Lacquer is not paint, is not varnish, although it does the work of these most conveniently. It is made of the finest quality of virgin cotton, nitrated and treated very much the same as in making of celluloid.
The lacquers you have come to know about as used on automobiles are, of course, so exceedingly quick drying that they can' be applied only with spray equipment.
Rogers Brushing Lacquer is a marvelous finish only re cently made possible through the perfect blending of rare solvents which cause the lacquer to dry slowly enough so that you can apply it with a brush as you have been ac customed to do with varnish and enamels. It's so easy to flow on that it makes painting real fun. Saves hours and even days of "tie-ups."

S-W Floor Enamel
For Interior Wood and Concrete Floors
Sherwin-Williams Floor Enamel is designed to produce a beautiful, last ing enamel finish for interior floors of both wood and concrete. It brushes out freely and any person can produce a good job without any difficulty. Floor Enamel dries over night but re quires 48 hours for complete harden ing, especially if drying conditions are unfavorable because of humidity.
In the home the sun parlor, kitch en, lavatories and bathroom imme diately suggest the use of color on the floor. In the basement, however, the housewife will find outstanding benefit from the use of Floor Enamel because of the ease of keeping the room clean and attractive.
Concrete floors and old linoleum offer opportunity for using Floor Enamel in two-tone effects with most striking results. These surfaces may be marked off in squares or blocks and a variety of border treatments can be employed. Our Decorative Studios will gladly assist any person wishing to work out a complete color scheme for the room.

USE SHERWIN-WILLIAMS CRACK AND SEAM FILLER FOR FILLING UNSIGHT
Directions for Using S-W Floor Enamel
NOTE: It is not tale to ute any kind of a finish on cellar concrete Hoars where the turtace it damp from water seep age. Satisfactory painting of- concrete depends upon the concrete being neutral or free from alkali. For an alkaline condition wash the concrete with a weak or 5% solution of sulphuric acid, rinse carefully with clear water and allow to dry thoroughly before painting.
The surface must be dry, free from loose paint, grease and dirt.
Brush the enamel out thoroughly into thin, even coats. Be sure each coat is perfectly dry and hard before applying the next coat.
STIR THE ENAMEL THOROUGHLY
If the pigment has settled, pour the liquid into a clean vessel. Stir the remaining portion with a clean paddle to a smooth, soft mass. Then work the liquid back into the enamel slowly, stirring constantly.
NEW WOOD FLOORS
. ..
Thin the enamel by adding one pint pure turpentine to the gallon of enamel.
Second and third coats are applied without thinning.
PREVIOUSLY PAINTED FLOORS
Touch up all bare spots as directedgfor new floors. Sand paper well when dry and follow with one or two coats without thinning. .
If there are cracks or spaces between boards fill these with S-W Crack and Seam Filler AFTER the first coat of Floor Enamel is applied.
LINOLEUM
'
Wipe linoleum off 'with benzine to remove any grease or soap film. Thin the first coat of Floor Enamel as directed for new wood. If linoleum is badly cracked or chipping off, re
move it and finish the floor beneath after cleaning and scrap ing smooth. Then finish as directed for new wood floors.
NEW CONCRETE FLOORS
The surface must be continually dry. (See note above). Thin Floor Enamel with pure turpentine in the proportion of one pint to the gallon of eHfcmel. Second and third coats are to be applied without thinning.
If Floor Enamel should seem tbo heavy for easy brushing thin slightly with pure turpentine, only. For best results, use a good brush.

S-W Save-Lite (Interior Eg-Shel White)
READY FOR USE
An intensely white finish for interior walls, ceilings and woodwork of factories, mills, dairies, stores, etc. Dries with an egg-shell gloss and is particularly desirable for its lightdiffusing qualities, without the objectionable glare reflected
by a high gloss paint. On account of its heavy body, it has
splended hiding qualities, covering dark or poorly painted surfaces with two coats. The first coat should be reduced 25 per cent with turpentine or S-W Universal Thinner, which serves as a size and sealer. Second coat should be
applied as it comes from the can.
S-W Screen Enamel
Sherwin-Williams Screen Enamel is a finish especially made for wire screens. It does not clog up the mesh, yet leaves a durable and lustrous coating over the wire which prevents rust. It is made in green and black and is put up
in half-pint to gallon sizes.
Home-owners nowadays have learned that it is the easiest
and the most economical way to dust off the screens and give them a coat of S-W Screen Enamel in the Fall before storing them away for the Winter. It is a real pleasure to
have clean-painted screens all ready to use when fly time arrives in the Spring.

S-W Touch-Up Black
Every car gets scratched at some time or other. And every car develops rust spots at various points, such as around bolt heads, wind shields, hinges of the hood, etc. No matter how well the car may be kept washed, these marks remain and are the evidence of age in a car.
It is a simple matter to keep a car looking new if you
have a can of enamel handy and a brush to apply it when
these spots are first noticed, but the average man isn't so
equipped.
'
Handy Touch-Up Black is always ready for use. The brush is soldered right through the cap of the can. A screwdriver pries open the cover in a jiffy arid there is a dandy little fitch
brush right in the enamel all ready to use. Touch up the worn spot, replace the cap in the can and Touch-Up Black is ail ready for the nest time--no trouble--no fuss and the brush won't harden.
The Touch-Up brush is round and pointed so that it will neatly hit the smallest spot without smearing up the entire surface. It contains stock enough, however, to spread out for an inch-wide stroke if an entire door or panel must be
coated.
Touch-Up Black dries dust free in half an hour and hard in a couple of hours. Has a brilliant high gloss and is a thoroughly satisfactory piece of goods in every way.

The Reliable Paint and Varnish Remover
Sherwin-Williams Taxite is a liquid paint and varnish remover for use in taking off alt kinds of paint, varnish and lacquer finishes, indoors and out-of-doors.
It is a.scientifically made remover and should not be con fused with such dangerous solutions as soda, lye, etc., nor with other makeshift removers.
Taxite does not spend its strength in evaporation. It is so made that a film immediately forms over the top of the liquid, when applied, which locks in the active ingredients driving them into the old finish. A relatively small amount of Taxite, therefore, does a large amount of work.
Taxite is SAFE. It does not harm the hands and it will not bum or discolor the lightest grain woods. It does not warp the wood, loosen veneers, or raise the grain. These disadvantages are characteristic faults of lye, soda and similar solutions in water.
