COMMON SENSE.
Bar Soap.
Buy a box at a time; cut into small squares and lay upon the garret-floor to dry for several weeks before it is used.
Soft Soap.
| 10 | lbs. | grease. |
| 6 | " | soda (washing), |
| 8 | gallons hot water. | |
Let it stand for several days until the grease is eaten up. If too thick, add more water. Stir every day. If wood-ashes are used instead of soda, boil the mixture.
THE END
