To
Extract
Grease
Spots
from
Books
or
Paper.
Gently
warm
the
greased
or
spotted
part
of
the
book
or
paper,
and
then
press
upon
it
pieces
of
blotting-paper,
one
after
another,
so
as
to
absorb
as
much
of
the
grease
as
possible.
Have
ready
some
fine
clear
essential
oil
of
turpentine
heated
almost
to
a
boiling
state,
warm
the
greased
leaf
a
little,
and
then,
with
a
soft
clean
brush,
apply
the
heated
turpentine
to
both
sides
of
the
spotted
part.
By
repeating
this
application,
the
grease
will
be
extracted.
Lastly,
with
another
brush
dipped
in
rectified
spirit
of
wine,
go
over
the
place,
and
the
grease
will
no
longer
appear,
neither
will
the
paper
be
discoloured.

A
solution
of
oxalic
acid,
citric
acid,
or
tartaric
acid,
is
attended
with
the
least
risk,
and
may
be
applied
to
paper
and
prints
without
fear
of
damage.
These
acids,
which
take
out
writing
ink,
and
do
not
touch
the
printing,
can
be
used
for
restoring
books
where
the
margins
have
been
written
upon,
without
injuring
the
text.
