To Clean Jewels.

\ sharp-pointed implement should
never be employed to clean rings. as it
loosens the stones. Soak them in liquid
ammonia and the dirt will be loosened
Afterward they should be polished with
soft cloth. 1t is n good plan to keep
rings in sawdust, as it enables the gems
to retain their brillianSy. Warm w, az
and Il little prepared chalk are all t
are required to clean plain or chi, Il
rings.
Toilet articles, vinaigrettes and 'ier
small trinkets may be easily brgh, 2ned
without the use of powder by placing
them in an aluminium receptacle and
pouring boiling water over them. Pol
ishing should be done by means of a
piece of clean chamois leather. hut in
adopting this treatment it must be re-
memhercd that the silver should never
be allowed to become furnished.
