This is the question which ladies all over the ward are asking each other in relation to the new method of washing c'othing which was published in the Chronicle on De- cember 17." Those who have tried it are enthusiastic in its favor, because it does at least four things, namely: It saves time, it saves labor, it saves the goods and it cleanses the clothing more thor- oughly than by any other method. Tes timonials to its wonderful efficacy reach us by the dozen nearly every day. Soon after the recipe appeared one of the best known physicians in the town called to thank the editor personally for printing it, saying it was one of the best inven. tions he had ever heard of. We here reproduce the recipe with our fullest in. dorsement after repeated tests : Fill a good-sized wash-boiler with wa. ter, adding 8 pound of ordinary washiog soap, shreded fine, and when the soap is dissolved, two and a half tablespoonfuls of headlight oil.
