The easiest and best way to clean
galvanized iron vessels or sink which
has been more or less neglected is to
rub strong soap powder into every cor
ner and over every inch of surface.
Let it remain on for ten or fifteen min
utes, then with q stout brush go over
the whole, dipping the brush into boil
ing water. When the sink is thorough
ly scrubbed. polish it with kerosene,
rubbing the oil into the iron and leav-
ing no residue Of grease behind. The
kerosene prevents it from rusting after
the strong soap powder and boiling
water are used. Care must be taken
that the painted woodwork around the
sink does not come into contact with
the powder, as 1t may eat off the paint.
The kitchen sink should be cleaned as
thoroughly as this twice week and
every day rinsed out carefully with
hot soapsuds.

A Naw soan for rraualara.

Soap leaves they are called-and
that is just what they are. Flat
squares Of creamy looking glazed
paper, about four inches long and two
inches wide and about an eighth of
an inch In thiclness-the size will
tell you what convenient little things
they are to carry.
Some enterprising soap manufac-
turer anxious for more business has
made them lr>-'to bring more bust
ness probably. He has put a couple
of dozen leaves In a neat little case,
stamped It with his name and the d.
rections for use on the inside, and
made the selling price only a few
cents.
They are surely convenient to use
and handy to carry--a man can slip
the case in his pocket or a woman
can carry one in her handbag.
