Prevention of Dirt. rubbing. All draperies or woolen materials should be carefully beaten and brushed before any other cleaning is attempted. Wool fabrics hold much of the dirt upon their hook-like projections, and these become knotted and twisted by hard rubbing. If the fabric be too weak to be lifted up and down in the liquid bath, it may be laid on a sheet, over a folded blanket, and sponged on both sides with the soap or amimionia solution or with the naphtha. If the colors are changed a li...ttle by the alkalies, rinse the fabrics in vinegar or dilute acetic acid ; if affect- ed by acids, rinse in ammonia water. In the use of naphtha, benzine, turpentine, etc. , great caution is necessary. The vapor of all these substances is extremely inflammable. They should never be used where there is any fire or light pres- ent, nor likely to be for several hours. A bottle containing one of them should never be left un- corked. Whenever possible, use them out-of- doors. With both dust and grease, prevention is easier than removal.
