Modern bath rooms and appliances : a few suggestions about plumbing valuable to home builders or those about to remodel their present dwellings. . r better and Irry respect. ^ THE CARE OF A MODERN BATH ROOM *jf) Do not use any gritty polishing or scouring prepara-tions in cleaning the fixtures ; the frequent use of soap andwarm water should be sufficient. Should this not have the desired effect, however, trya weak solution of ammonia, not over a spoonful to a quartof warm water, or a cloth moistened with refined keroseneor carbon oil. We can recommend a preparation known as Porcella,which is manufactured especially for cleaning porcelainenameled ware. Ask your plumber or druggist for it. Use whiting for polishing nickel work. It is just aseffective, if frequently applied, as harmful acid preparationswhich soon destroy the nickel. Give the same careful attention to thebath room that you would bestow on the bestroom in the house. Treat your bath tub asyou would your fine china or porcelain ware. There is no part of your housethat will give you the same amountof satisfaction and pleasure for thecare devoted to it as vour bath
