Squeaky locks: To cure locks that are squeaky and stiff, take a feather, dip in some oil, and then apply it to the inside of the lock. Apply several times, and turn the key backwards and forward to work in the oil. Marks on furniture: Scratches on furniture can be removed by the application of equal parts of salad oil and vinegar, rubbed v ell into the wood with a soft cloth until the scratches have disappeared. The furniture should then be polished.
