Moisten with either salt water on salt water containing oxalic acid in solution a mixture consist- ing of one part coal and three parts ashes, place in your furnbce or in the kitchen range, and as yon ithut the door you will have visions—visi ns that are of true prophecy—of you coal bill shrinking, losing its ciphers, nd in the end, if you save up enough a hes, vanishing."
