How to Handle Delicate Ware So II
viii Retain Beauty.
1t is seldom that the girl who sells
the cut glass In the big department
stores can tell you precisely what to do
IN order to preserve these beautiful
and expensive articles, but one young
lady, who owns several costly pieces
and who is overenthuslastic concern
ing them, says that with the proper
care they are a Joy forever and a de-
light to behold.
AS warning she says that it re-
quires considerably more care and at
tention than does silverware, as cut
glass will not stand any rough han.
ding while being polished This brittle
article is actually the most fragile
IN the world of the housewife. 1t
seems to await its chance to shatter,
and therefore IL the following rules are
adhered TO breakage will be reduced
to the smallest percentages:
Keep it in a china closet that has
rail or support that will avert its
slipping
Make sure that the shelf Is strong to
hold the weight IL the pieces are
large
Never rinse under running water
Prepare water for washing in a
wooden pan or dish tub and fold
towel on the bottom so that the pieces
can rest on It's cushlony layers.

pose) and lintless cloth.
Rinse with water of the same tenn.
peratnre and dry With soft towel,
polishing afterward with tissue paper
that comes for this purpose, or you
can use new clean ehamois.
Do not put grease of any kind In
these pieces, not even butter, rs grease
makes them cloudy, and you can never
polish them as brightly after so using.
Brushing should always be done
with the softest brushes procurable.
Stiff brushes scratch numerically. But
brush must be used TO clean the
creviees, so 1t cannot be dispensed
with.
Never use tacks or buckshot to clean
the inside of bottles, jugs and pitchers,
but the ground shell OF an egg, salt
and lemon or little white vinegar.
A piece of raw potato soaked In a
carafe or any of the deeper pieces will
help TO make Frightening light task
