If you haven't a bod that your great-great-great-grandfather and incidentally your great-great-greut-grandniother slept In or a mirror that reflected your dou ble great aunt's patrician fmtures or at least a chair that your grandmoth er's great-uncle used to sit and Bnore In before tho fire, then it's up to you to hustle around and get a fourposter that someone else's grea-tgi eat-greatgrandfather and great-great great grandmother slept in or a mtr.or that reflected someone else's great-aunt's double chin or a wing chair that creaked under the weight of someone olse's grandmother's great uncle. The craze for antique furniture In creases with the passing of the years even as the high cost of living. Maids and matrons discuss glibly the differ ent merits of Hepplewalte, Sheraton, Chippendale, tho elder Adam and can tell a Louis Quinze chair from a Louis Seize even though they are prone to pronounce It a quince. Antique deal ers are finding it harder to fool these well-yorsed female furniture' fiends as to periods and dates but alas whether a piece is a copy or the original is not easily detected in those days of camou flage. , Of course wonderful old pieces can be picked up at ridiculous prices in Europe now: The main problem is af ter you get it what are you going to do with it. An acquaintance of mine who has lived in London for several years is quietly feathering her nest with many choice and cheap nieces which. of course, she will'be allowed to bring in with the ' rest of her household goods when she returns home after the war. She at least can rest secure and serene in the Implicit knowledge that someone s great - great - grandfathers and grandmothers really did use he stuff while we who purchase our an tiques hero are apt to be Bpeaking doubly Incorrectly when we refer to our Junk uh "old antiques." In fact most of the antique furni ture over hern Is mado w'hilo you wait. An old cabinet maker called In to render first aid to a marvelous four poster which has been in the old southern family of a friend of mine for generations disclosed manv dark doings of the antique furniture dealers and he spoke from years of experi ence with one of the largest and most exclusive of New York antique furni ture shops. It seems bright lovely now copies of old pieces are made up In Job lots at Grand Kapids and then shipped to this antique shop to go through the pro cess of ageing. Tho indignities that these perfectly good bureaus and tables and highboys are then sub jected to are quite Boschey in concep tion. Heavy chains are dragged back and forth and ground around over their fair smooth surface. Scalding water and bottles of ink are upset on virgin varnish tops and allowed to stay a while. This ink treatment is particularly popular with desks and secretaries. Hlows with hammers and chisels are dealt impartially and then the poor old high boys and lowboys and whatnots are taken out, lined lip against the wall and shot. Yes pep pered with bird shot so it can be blamed on the worms. Thusly camouflaged a piece which cost originally $50 in Grand Rapids may e.'mily fetch $500 or a couple of thousand in New York. In the face of such prices too they still have the nerve to dub some of the pieces lowboys. If they dealt exclu sively in highboys and high chairs it would be more to the point. Up to tho moment of going to press I have always endeavored to keep my children from mauling unduly my meugor assortment of Grand Rapids' best. After hearing tho cabinet, mak er s story, hnwover, I have docided to turn thorn loose and soon hope to have a collection of antiques that will rival the richest treasures in the proud pos session of The Daughter of a Thou sand Earls.
