Pnamel or Porcelain Sinks are kept cleanin by washing with soapy water and wiping occasionally with a cloth moistened with kerosene ofl. The dishpan should be mounted on rubber feet to prevent scratching the porcelain. Or, better yeti, buy a rubber mat to lie in the bottom of the sink, for all pots and pans to stand on. Any finé abrasive may be used on porcelain (such as sifted whiting) when scratched or solled. Kerosene fs best to use in réemov- ing the curd-like deposit left on the sides by soapy water. But when porcelain is badly darkened by some unknown stain it is often ne cégsary to use the following cleans- ing agent: Buy from a druggist a little muriatic acid (this is a poison, so should be carefully handled). To one part of this acid add ten parts of water. Apply this mixture with a swab of cotton tied to a skewer (never with the hands). Then rinse the porcelsin well with ammonia and water. The ammonia, which is an alkaM, will check the action of the acid on the glazed finish of the porcelain, " Slate and Iron Sinks require an occasional cleaning with some form of abrasive also.
