HOW CHINAWARE IS CLEANED
BY A SIMPLE HOME PROCESS
Each Dish Must Be Carefully Washed in Warm,
Soapy Water-FIow to Remove Stains.

are veritable dust traps and need much
soaking and scrubbing to release the
CRIME. One cannot be too careful, how
ever. with this kind of ware. and the
wiping really is almost worse than the
washing. for unless thoroughly dry the
dust will settle into the crevices, so after
rinsing and drying thoroughly with a soft
towel it is good plan to place the ar
ticles In cool oven, leaving the door
ajar. If only as a reminder that the dishes
are inside and must be removed before
the fire gets hot.
One Of the best home remedies for re-
moving stains on china is wood ashes.
These ashes are safe to use and any or
binary stains will disappear with the
treatment. consisting of soft ashes shaken
on damp CLOTH and applied. There are
also many good cleansing powders for the
purpose, but only reliable articles should
be bought.
When a stain is obstinate, little dry
salt will usually remove it and will not
iin1ure the china.
There are, however. some kinds of
stains that do not disappear by ordinary
means. notably the dark color that has
settled into small cracks and the yellow
tinge often assumed by unused china, also
stains caused by medicine.
When such is the case there Is nothing
that will remove the obstinate spots but
muriatic acid. At the outset it is best to
say this must be used with caution. At
the same time there is no better agent. If
china has been well fired no harm will
result to the ware or its colored decora-
ton. but IL home fired the china must not
be treated with this acid
In applying muriatic acid it is best to
use camel's har brush because while
the acid will. not burn the fingers it is
apt to injure the cuticle around the nails
The muriatic acid should be used full
strength. and il the article to be whitened
is dish or plate the liquid should be
poured into It, fitting and rolling the acid
until the stains disappear
Stains caused by running water i'm bowls
will disappear as if by magic by using a

be poured on marble. only porcelain. for
it will eat away the polish on the mar ble

To keep chinaware bright and spOtlesS
is the desire Of every housekeeper. and
so the task of washing the best dishes
she rarely intrusts to a servant. For
should the cleansing be done in a careless
way the result will be an accumulation OF
small stains, which will require treatment
bordering on the heroic to remove.
Hot water should be avoided when
washing fine china, because the heat is
apt to make cracks, just as it will break
glass. To cleanse such china cupful OF
soapsuds or thin soap jelly should be
added to a pan of hot water, and as a
preca utiOn against chipping and breaking
it is a good plan to fold dish towel and
lay on the bottom of the dish pan. For
this purpose there are rubber mats, but
a thick fold of tOweling will be just as
much protection.
In washing a few cups and plates only
ordinary care is sufficient. but at this
season of the year. when housekeeping
is the order. the china closet and its con-
tents demand special attention quite as
do walls and floors.
For even though the pretty ware has
been kept behind closed doors dust will
sift through and often stains appear on
china when it is unused for months at a
time.
OF course it goes without saying that
only a few pieces should be put in the
bath at time. II the work OF cleansing
Is to be thorough.
In soaking. however, if each dish is
placed carefully in the bath number of
pieces may be put in together.
After soaking In sOapy water for several
minutes to soften the soil and stains. a
second bath should be prepared. into
which few pieces should be washed at
a time. small. old. soft tooth brush is
the best article with which to clean han
dies of cups. pitchers and vegetable
dishes.
1t may be necessary to say do not hold
a teacup of fragile china by the handle
when using the tooth brush on it, for
know of one case where this method re-
suited in the cup falling upon the floor,
leaving the handle on the finger of the
cleaner.
