! AUsefnI ArticIe.. :

Ammonia, or as 1t Is generally called,
spirits ofhartshorn, is q powerful alkali,
and disolves grease and dirt with great
case. 1t has lately been recommended
very highly Tor domestic purposes. For
washing paint, put q tablespoonful in a
quart ot moderately hot water, dip in a
flannel cloth and wipe of the wood work;
no scrubbing will be necessary. For
taking greasy spots from any fabric use
the ammonia nearly pure, then lay white
blottlng paper over the spot and iron 1t
lightly. In washing lace put about
twelve drops in a pint Of warm suds.
To clean silver, mix two teaspoonful Of
ammonia in quart Of hot suds. Put in
your silreFware and wash, using an old
nall.brush for the purpose. For cleaning
halr-brushes, etc, simply shake the
bushes up and down in a mixture Of one
tablespoonful Of ammonia TO one pint Of
hot water; when they are cleansed, rinse
them in cold water, and stand them In the
wind or in hot placeto dry. For wash.
ing finger.marks from looking.glasses or
windows, put in o few dops Of ammonia
on a moistTag and make quick work Of
It. II you wish your house plants to
flourish put few drops Of the spirits in
every pint of water used In water.

refreshing effects ofthe bath. Nothing Is
better than ammonia water for,cleansInE
the hair. In every case rinse off the am
monia with clean water. To which we
would only add, that, for removing
grease spots, mixture Of equal parts Of
ammonia and alcohol isibetter than al.

stains produced by the strong acids in
blue and black clothes, there Is nothing
