WASHING SIiNrR WARE.-lt X seems that
houskccpers who wash their silver ware with
soap and water. as the common practice is. do
not know what they are about. The propri-
ctor of one OF the Oldest silver establishments
in the city OF Philadelphia, says that =. house
keepers ruin their silver by washing it in soap
suds; it makes it look like pewter. Never
put particle OF soap about yonr silver; then
it will regain its original lustrc. When it
wants polish, take a piece OF .ofi leather and
whiting, and rub it hard"
