The following has been most helpful to me. I wait a day after the final coat of varnish is applied must be thoroughly dry and my experience has shown that more than a day is usually required) and then rub the finish with powdered pumice or oil or water.

oil is usually recommended when an oil is used.) If a satin is desired, rub with powdered rottenstone mixed with either oil or water. Both methods have given me good DEAR POLLY To give her newly varnished furniture an old look. Clara could rub it with very, very fine steel wool, then wax and buff it. I find it important to apply several coats of dull-linish varnish and use the steel wool between each of them. Be sure each coat is perfectly dry before using the steel wool.

This adds even to the desired DEAR POLLY I want to tell Clara that a professional used the following method on nn varnished woodwork and it was most satisfactory. Dip a piece of fine steel wool in linseed oil and rub lightly to remove the shine and have a satin finish. Thanks lo everyone tor the many helpful hints in the B.

Start of National Lilirary Week through April 22. Women's Interest T-Shirt Move, a Fashion Coup By HELEN HENNESSY Editor NEW the T-shirt from basic, active sportswear gear to that of the status top should go down in history as a great fashion coup. Time was when an T- shirt was nothing more than a plain, simplecotton knit top.

Years before Americans could ever buy anything sophisticated in that category in the United States. French and Italian designers were styling cotton knit tops in all sorts of super ways. practically everyone who traveled to Europe returned home with a few. li and when they tried to replace them here, discouragement set in immediately. Then suddenly somebody lowered the perhaps lifted it.

Whatever happened. all kinds of T-shirts became de rigeuer for Americans no matter what age. Designers started turning their attention to novelty styling and detailing. They worked in a multitude of prints and new textures for solid color cotton knits. Store buyers learned that the way to entice customers to buy T-shirts in droves was to select a reasonable amount of styles and then go all out as far as number of colors per style.

And now people in all income brackets are re- and snapping up T- shirts in substantial quantities. Some even collect them. The new Sweater Bee by Banff Collection is into cotton knit tops in a big way. Printed tops are what's happening right now. especially since solid khaki chino.

natural linenlike fabrics and navy duck are among the fabrics that are most popular for skirts and pants. Then, what with sportswear suits, shirt jackets and smock jackets high on the fashion roster printed cotton Ts will fit right as the necessary catalysts. for two or two for leaves reed in favor of cotton knit T-shirts. Left, a printed shcllow-neck, short-sleeved T. Right, color spliced skivvy tank top in the underwear mood Both from Sweater Bee by Banff.

And, of course, the is the perfect mate for jeans. Many of the new T-shirts in this collection look as though they have been ed twice 01 overprinted. Others purposely imitate the underwear look. And some are shirt styled. Today, for sheer cana, T-shirts can take their place alongside apple pie, hot dogs, hamburgers and jeans.
