[JUDGEMENT
IS
THE
THRONE
OF
PRUDENCE.]
2318.
Borax
in
the
Laundry.
For
washing
add
a
threepenny
packet
to
every
ten
gallons
of
hot
water
used;
let
the
clothes
soak
all
night
in
the
solution;
in
the
morning
give
them
a
slight
boil,
adding
a
little
more
Patent
Borax,
if
they
be
very
greasy
or
dirty.
By
this
means
the
clothes
are
rendered
whiter,
soap
is
saved,
and
the
hands
are
uninjured.
It
acts,
moreover,
as
a
disinfectant,
if
the
clothes
have
been
taken
from
the
bed
or
person
of
anyone
who
is
suffering
from
any
infectious
disorder.
Flannels
are
rendered
softer,
and
the
appearance
of
lace,
fine
articles,
coloured
prints,
soiled
ribbons,
&c.,
greatly
improved
by
washing
them
in
this
solution.
A
teaspoonful
to
each
pint
of
starch,
when
hot,
will
add
to
the
stiffness
and
gloss
of
linen
when
ironed.
2319.
To
Revive
Black
Lace.
Lay
the
lace
on
a
piece
of
clean
smooth
board,
and
moisten
it
all
over
with
a
piece
of
black
silk
dipped
in
a
solution
of
a
teaspoonful
of
Patent
Borax
to
a
pint
of
warm
water.
Iron
while
damp,
after
covering
the
lace
with
a
piece
of
black
silk
or
cloth.
2320.
Borax
for
the
Toilet.
As
a
wash
for
the
mouth
add
half
a
teaspoonful
of
spirits
of
camphor,
and
a
teaspoonful
of
tincture
of
myrrh
to
a
pint
of
hot
water,
in
which
a
penny
packet
of
Patent
Borax
has
been
dissolved,
and
use
a
wineglassful
of
this
mixture
in
half
a
tumbler
of
water,
when
brushing
the
teeth.
When
the
mouth
is
washed
out
with
this
solution,
it
removes
the
smell
of
tobacco
and
any
unpleasant
odour
arising
from
decayed
teeth.
Camphorated
chalk
dentrifice
is
improved
as
a
tooth
powder
by
the
addition
of
a
little
powdered
borax.
For
washing
hair
brushes,
sponges,
etc.,
a
solution
of
a
small
packet
in
a
pint
of
hot
water
should
be
used.
