To Clean Wrlnger Rollers.

To clean the rubber rollers Of your
wringer, which have become soiled or
stained so that they cannot be used,
rub them well. or scrub them with q
little stiff hand-brush, using coaloil In
plenty. This will loosen. all the dark
marks and will take out the most OF
the coloring matter which the rubber
absorbed from the dyed material.
Later a good wash in hot soapsuds
would restore the wringer, for further
