In his letter to the Prc*sident of

EASY WAY TO CLEAN SILVER.

A simple way to clean discolored
silver is to pet a quarter of a pound of
Sal soda into a gallon of water. Place

bolt When at boiling beat dip In the
pieces .of silver, one by one, taking
'each out quickly. Wash in soapsuds
and dry with a soft, clean cloth. This
method takes about one-quarter of the

Silver spoons or forks may be kept
brightest it they are left for several
hours in strong borax water. Silver
that Is frequently washed with ammo-
nia water will need cleaning leis often.
Silver teapots, being seldom in con-
stant use, are very likely to become
moldy. They can, however, be kept in
perfectly good condition if, after wash-
ing and drying them thoroughly, a
Lump of sugar is: placed inside. The
sugar absorbs the dampness and keeps
