How to Polish Bronze,

The treatment Of bronze is problem
which many well meaning housekeep.
er has failed to solve. Washing bronze
is bad plan, as the polish is delicate
and easily spoiled, but careful busting
every day with soft cloth and feath-
er brush and little sweet oil rubbed
on occasionally and we'll rubbed off
with soft silk rag are said by good
housekeeper to have the best results.
The various polishes, pastes and pow
ders sold for cleaning bronze are about
as edicaoious as the lily white and rose
red blooms sold for the complexion
some Of them do no harm. The good
housekeeper gives the following recipe
for bronze that has been stained: Make
the article very hot by putting it in
boiling water, then rub it with 0iece
of flannel, dipped in suds made from
yellow soap, polishing it afterward
with soft linen rag.

How to Clean Lace.

The following is good method for
soiled blond lace. This lace, it may be
noted, demands much care in cleaning.
First shake the lace gently, then in an
absolutely clean and greaseless vessel
boil it in enough water to cover, with a
trifle of blue added to it. Boil for one
hour and repeat the operation twice
more; on the last occasion, however,
emitting the blue. Do not wiring the
lace when taking it from the water the
third time, just gently press it between
the hands. While still damp pass the
lace through weak gum water with a
little brandy and alum, and iron gently
while damp.
