Although there are many, excellent polishes of this sort Do You Keep Your Silver Clean? Silverware is like mahogany furni- ture in this one respect, it had better be put away if the owner hasn’t time to keep it clean and polished. Dull or tarnished silver is a most disturb- ing sight. The tarnish on silver is silver sul- phide; which is.the result of the union of siiver with sulphur. Sulphur com- pounds are often found in the air where either coal or coal gas is burn- ed, and these compounds are also found in organic materials, such as * food, wool and rubber. We are all familiar with the blackness that re- silts from using silver with eggs or leaving silver in contact with elastic bands. Frequently this same black- ness is caused by letting the silver come In contact with wooled mate- rials, or with colored or bleached cot- ton goods in the manufacture of which sulphur may have been used— but, because this fact is not as wide- 1y known, the housewife is mystitied concerning, the cause of the tarnish.
