FOR THE BIRTHDAY If tomorrow is your birthday, your horoscope indicates that, cerned, the next year will favor the accomplishment of unusual and difficult tasks. It would be advisable, as of now, to tackle new projects and, wherever you can, take steps to strengthen your financial position.

The finishes are mostly dark, although a faint new trend shows up in a chalky white dis- tressed treatment. Much of this country-house type of furniture has painted finishes, in dark hues of mostly olive green or berry red, with the grain of the wood running through. What was once a perfectly plain sideboard or cabinet, with the only decorative note the grain of the wood itself helped along by somewhat garish hard- ware, now appears in a dressed- up version by virtue of panel carvings, shadow box effects, and. other embellishments.
