The spanking white stove and dishwasher and the natural color of the built-ins neatly neutralizes all the shades. Eeven the cranberry glass ceiling fixture ties in with the color scheme. ” ” »

But if you use the coating, re-

member that: 1. The metal thoroughly clean, free from tarnish, and dry when the coating is applied. 2. The coating should be brushed lightly over the entire surface. 3. If silver is used for serving food or beverage, the coating must first be removed. This is simple, however,
