To Wash Graining. —Use .clear warm water, no soap, a clean white cloth. Wash only a small place at a time, and wipe dry with another clean white cloth. Do not wet more space than can be dried immediately with the dry cloth, as graining must not he left to dry in the atmosphere. It must be rubbed dry; hence the necessity of white dry cloths. If the graining has been neglected, or soiled with greasy fingers, or specked by summer growth of flies, a little hard soap may be necessary in the first water, but mnst be speedily rinsed off in clear water and wiped dry. But, if possible, avoid the use of soap, as it deadens the varnish, however carefully handled, and on no account must any soap be rubbed on the ploth.
