(To our mind, this is quite a draw- back. Is there any way to easily soften hard water? ANSWER: Yes. Plumbing sup- dealers have water-softening units that can be _ installed in the main. water supply pipe. This unit will soften water for all household purposes. These can be installed on a rental basis, including regular servic- ing, as well as outright ' pur- chase.

Or, if you |have an indirect hot-water heat- er in the sytsem, the rise may be a leak in the coil. A, drop in the water level may be from a leak in the wet return pipe, along or under the floor, ex- cept from strong escape of steam from a radiator. I strongly recommend having a reputable heating contractor check the furnace and make any necessary corrections. OF LARGHETTO WASHINGTON (AP) -- Mi- chael Kerpan Jr., 12-year-old son of a Tulsa, Okla., police sergeant, won the 38th annual national spelling bee Thurs- day when he correctly spelled the final word, larghetto, a musical term.

WATER FLUCTUATES QUESTION: We have been living in our middle-aged house almost five years. This winter the water in the glass guage of the furnace has been fluc- tuating from top to bottom in a very short time, instead of remaining stable and at the Same point for any length of time...How can this be cor- rected? What is the cause? ANSWER: If the unstable water level occurrs when the steam is coming up, it may be due to oil or dirty water. Oil and dirt form a scum that pre- vents free formation of steam. A boiler in that condition re- quires cleaning. A rise in the History Of Furniture Dates To Champlain It is generally assumed that the first Canadian furniture makers were among the colon- ists who were brought to Can- ada by Champlian in 1605, They settled near Annapolis Royal in Nova Scotia. After the individual cabinet makers, came the furniture fac- tories: the first of which was established in Berlin (now Kit- chener) by Jacob Hoffman in 1830. The first furniture factory in the Toronto area was built about 1834 by Messrs. Jacques and Hay. During the mid 1800's the furniture industry expanded RESTAINING VENEER 'QUESTION: We have two old |bedroom dressers of veneer, |which we would like to restain to a walnut finish. How do we \go about this? ANSWER: You don't state jwhat color or finish is now on jthe dressers I assume the veneer is in gqod condition and adhering: tightly and smoothly all over. Remove any finish now onthe veneer (denatured alco- hol for shellac, paint remover for varnish). If the present col- jor is darker than the walnut |stain you desire, apply wood bleach according to label in- structions. Apply desired walnut stain. Finish with thin coat paste wax, pure white shellac (thinned half and half with denatured alcohol) or water-clear varnish, as preferred.
