the pure article has not. and the little
which it has soon disappears. If this
cannot be obtained, strong alcohol

( very well. A mixture of strong alcohol
and water of ammonia is also used.
The trouble with all these liquids is
that not enough is used; small guam
tity only softens aud spreads the grease
spot; they should be applied in sufli-
cient quantity and repeated to not only
dissolve the foreign matter but to wash
! il cut.
