Money Wisely Expended
on Paint and Varnish
Cleaning up the Individual premise
of a borne owner or occupant I the
first essential element In Improving
the appearance and health condition
of the property. After thl Is done
painting and varnishing may follow.
A small amount of money Invested
each year In paint and varnish keen
the property In good condition with
no period of deterioration or expen
sive repairs. A good surface of paint
on the woodwork, both Interior snd ex
terior seals up the pore in th wood,
keeping out germs. Insect and decay.
The borne owner may establish a
system of painting his home, so that
part of It may be painted one year,
other parts the next and still more
part th third year. In this msnner
no heavy expenditure faces the home
owner every three year or so. And
at the same time, the home always
appear to be In flrst-class condition.
Tainting also serves ss a health
measure. Any surface that Is painted
regularly cannot harbor germs that
menace the bealtb of the family.
Problems f Natar Lovers
In Nature Magazine Charles Sum

L'se of Open Space, had a most In

"It Is recognized today that beauty
Is not a luxury, but an absolute
necessity to the complete life ot
every normal human being. The
man who does not crave the beauties
of nature ba a twisted (oul and
should be an object of pity; and. If
be should be the slave of a blind
commercialism which Impels him to
destroy for others the beauties of na
ture, he Is a bad citizen. Every prob

all countries ; and England, the cradle
of the Industrial age, faces difficulties
corresponding to those which nature
lover In America are mobilizing to
solve. It may be laid here that the
sooner this mobilisation on as large a
scale as possible I consummated the
sooner will the ravage on the face ut
