Great trouble is sometimes caused in
the household by knives and other steel
cutlery becoming rusty. This may
easily be prevented by little care.
Steel cutlery should be plunged into a
pan of whiting after washing, and re-
moved just before it is used. When it
is wiped it will lie perfectly bright. and
If kept in this way it can not get rusty.
In case the cutlery should already be
rusty, il should be rubbed with flannel
dipped in sweet oil; then covered with
Stacked lime and allowed to rest for
twenty.four hours. 1t should then be
wiped clean and finished off with some
powdered whiting and piece Of
chamois leather, when it will become
as bright US new.-Lonisville Courier
