| Marble, is a very difficult article to
clean if it is stained in such way that
the stain has sunk into the stone Slight
stains may be removed with pumice
stone, or with vigorous scrubbing
Greasy stains are best removed with a
paste of Fuller's earth applied in the
same way it is applied to wallpaper. 1t
is said that stains of ink on marble
may be removed by hydrochloric acid,
which is a powerful poison, and which
must be washed off with water almost
as soon as it is applied, to pre-.
vent its eating into the stone.-N. Y.
