10 you KEEP YOUR
SILVER CLEANi

Silverwarc Is Ike mahogany furni-
turc in this one respect; It had better
DO put away II the owner hasn't time
to keep It clean and polished. Dull or
tarnished silver II q most disturbing
sight.
The t1rnish on the silver Is silver
sulphidc, which Is the result OF the
union OF silver with sulphur. Sui
rhu. compounds are often found In the
air where either coal or coal gas ~
burned, and these compounds are also
found in organic materials such as
food, wool and rubber. We aros all
familiar with the blackness that re-
suits from using silver with eggs or
leaving silver In contact with clasti,
bands. Frequently this same black
ness is caused by letting the silver
come III contact with wooled materials.
or with colored or bleached cotton
goods In the manufacture OF which
sulphur may have been uscd--but, be-
cause this fact is not as widely known,
the housewife ia nystified concerning
the cause OF the tarnish.
Silver sulphde is insoluble In water,
so ordinary washing will have no
effect upon IL. III, however, the d'~
coloration Is rubbed with common
table salt and then washed n
appear. If ammonia is not used In
the 'wash-water the article viii tarnish
again very quickly; tho reason for
this is that the silver chloride, a
whitish compoind soluble in ammonia,
which has formed when the salt was
placed on the silver. remains on the
silver unless dissolved by the ammonia
--and Is quickly acted upon again by
sulphur, tarnish resulting.
There are many ways In which
silver may be cleaned, the most com
mon being by friction such as we gel
by applying powders or pastes sold
for this purpose. Although there are
many excellent polishes OF this sort
on tho market, care must be taken t.
choose one which is not coarse grain
cd. or the silver will be scratched.
Silver may also be cleaned by plac-
ing IT In receptacle, covering It with
n strong solution of borax, washing
soda or potash, and bringing this {,
tho boiling point. II is then boile,
about 80 minutes and IL next allowed
TO stay In the solution until It has be
come cold. Then rinse 1t and wipe i
with soft cloth or chamois. The re
suit Is clean silver but not highly
polished silver.
Another way is to place the silve
in a bright aluminium pan with :.
