DEAR SR:-Your communication of the YOth

to know that with not cent of additional expense,
tallow candles can be made fully equal in point Of
merit to the common star candle -
To two pounds of tallow add one teaspoonful of
strong ley from wood ashes, and simmer over
Slow tire-when greasy scum will float on top;
skim this off for making soap, lit is very near soap
already long as it continues to rise. Then mould
your candles usual, making the wicks a. little
smalier-and you have pure, hard tallow candle,
worth knowing how to make--and one that burns
as long and gives light equal to sperm. The
chemistry demonstrates itself An ounce or two Of
beeswax will make the candle some harder, and
sleeping the wcks in spirits turpentine will make it
burn some brighter
