A housekeeper should avoid polishes that promise to cover defects and risk dull rims on surfaces. A simple mix of one third linseed oil and two thirds benzine is described for cleaning and removing scratches, applied with a soft brush and dried thoroughly.

Another tie shows a flat square bow and a frilled curved edge.
