Page THE HERALD OUTLOOK Saturday February Fix cigarette burns in wood with wax By Polly DEAR POLLY I have a deep burn on my dining room table This is not just a scorch it actual a small hole Is there any way I can repair it inexpensively W DEAR GRW You might try patching the hole with wax Heres the procedure as described by George Grotz in bis valuable book The Fur niture Doctor Doubleday Clean out the hole with a knife and razor blade scratching out the burned wood and finish so the bole to be filled Is lower than the surface of the tables finish Select the type of wax you want to use You can boy wax sticks in various furniture colors for this purpose in hardware stores and places that sell refinisMng supplies Or you can use ordinary crayons which come in a wide variety of colors Choose the col or closest to your table color or mix colors to achieve the exact shade Heat the wax over a gas flame alcohol burner and let it dribble into the hole until the hole is filled Whet the wax hardens slightly with the dull blade of a table knife scrape the wan until It is level with the surface of the finish When level smooth it with a finger tip To protect the wax patch coat it with a thin layer of shellac don t use varnish or lacquer since the wax will bleed into them leaving a gummy mess After the shellac is dry you may varnish over the entire table top to achieve a uniform finish POLLY POLLYS POINTERS HOME OF DEAR POLLY My mother had a very good idea for cutting my little girls bangs She would never stay still because she hated the cut hair that fell onto her face and into her eyes My mom took an envelope with a seethrough window in it opened it flat and taped it to my daughters forehead so she could see out through the window This kept the cut hair out of her eyes while my mother trimmed the bangs My daughter got a kick out of it and we have had no trouble since Make your own furniture polish wood wash and other cleaning sup plies with the formulas Pollys
