To CLEAN PAINT.-There is a very simple
method to clean paint that has become dirty.
and If our housewives should adopt it, it
would save them great deal Of trouble.
Provide plate with some Of the best whit
ing TO be had, and have ready some clean
warm water and piece Of flannel, which dip
into the water and squeeze nearly dryI then
take as much whiting as will adhere to il,
apply it TO the painted surface, when little
rubbing will instantly remove any dirt or
grease. After which wash the part well
With clean water. rubbing it dry with soft
chamois Paint thus cleaned looks as well
as when first laid on, without any injury to the
most delicate colors. 1t is far better than
using soap, and does not require more
than half the time and labor.
