USES OF AMMONIA.
A bottle of liquid ammonia should certainly be kept in-every house for it is so very useful. Fruit stains can be removed from any material by rubbing the parts with a piece of cloth wrung out in hot water to which a little ammonia has been added. Afterwards press with a hot iron over a damp cloth. A few drops of ammonia added to the water in which lingerie is to be washed enables one to remove the dirt without rubbing the material. If a little ammonia is added to the water used for washing windows, mirrors, and all kinds of glassware the glass will have a brilliant polish. A hairbrush that has become dirty can be cleaned by dipping it several times in lukewarm water to which ammonia has been added.
