Fu rniture Styles ~ r Of “Different Eras Set Off Each Other
““YrOILS for" each other” is the way William Goldhill, president of Brunovan, Inc, one of the country’s
leading manufacturers and importers of Trench furniture, answers the frequently asked duestion, “Can French ~ 8 4
Provincial furniture and mod-
ern furniture be blended?” “The plain facade of most modern pleces, with straight
lines, is perfect contrast for the,
clean curves of French Provincial,” Mr. Goldhill says. “Further, the neutral wood tones of French Provincial harmonize beautifully with the tones used in most modern furniture. Actually, one period sets off the other.” A study made by Mr. Goldhill of the facts women most frequently ask about French Provinelal includes the oftasked “how can I distinguish between I'rench Provincial and other styles of French furniture?” o » » “ACTUALLY, French Provincial is a simplication of the French furniture of the court period of the 17th and 18th centuries, It Is inevitable that the lines of French Provincial should be simpler, because this furniture was the provinces’ adaptation of urban’ furnitura for its own use, “Tools in the provinces were cruder and craftsmen less skilled than in the cities, Thess were important factors in the
successfully .
creation of simpler furniture, Furthermore needs in the proves inces called for less sophistis cated. furniture, with French
Provincial the result.
“Woods, too, were simpler,” Mr. Goldhill said, “In the court furniture, rare woods — often from India and Africa were utilized. In the provinces, the woods easily obtainable cherry, walnut, apple and pear were used, another contributing factor in the simplification of French Provincial as compared to French court furniture.” ” ” ~ MR. GOLDHILL_ says he is often questioned about the use of modern fabrics on French Provincial.
“Today's fabrics—striking in both color and design—point up the simple lines of French Provincial furniture,” he says. “The blending of the. two is not only possible, but desirable.” The care of fruitwoods is another frequent question in the mind of the housewife, Mr. Goldhill says. "Fruitwoods require no special care. They are even easier than darker woods to keep clean. Stains and scratches show less readily on the lighter tones of fruitwood,” he pointed out. :
Snore Cure From 1776
There are many theories about how to stop a person from. snoring, but so far there has been no sure cure for it. One of these more interesting suggestions, however, is this, which dates back to about the time of the Revolution at least.
“The best cure for snoring is a liberal dose of soap the—yellow variety being preferable inserted in the mouth of the snorer, As a rule, the eriminal lies on his back and keeps his mouth open,
“If a wedge-shaped piece of
soap is placed in the snorer's mouth, he will undergo tem-
porary strangulation, and then’
sit up and make theological remarks.”
This may seem pretty drastic
and no doubt American husbands would immediately revolt foreed upon them." A much gentler treatment would be to install good sleepIng equipment, for it is gens erally conceded that if a person does not sleep on his back, he won’t snore. If good bedding is in the picture, the sleeper will be free to change positions during the night and consequently won't spend as much time on his back --or as much time snoring.
