Once carefully washed, waxed and polished, antique domestic oak furniture in daily use needs little care be- | cond a hard daily rubbing with a i clean, hard duster, applied with plenty | of elbow grease. Re-wax very occasionally, except when the waxed surface I of a' table has been marked by a hot plate, a drop of hot water or a. porous flower jar. To remedy such blemishes in the finely polished surface, wax the! damaged and rub well, when the marks will usually disappear. Where a light mark still shows on !\ dark brown surface, a useful dodge sometimes used bv dealers is to spread a thin layer of brown boot cream over the mark atnight, removing it next morning and polishing with a dry cloth.
