NEW USE FOR BLACKLEAD
When squeaks develop along the edges of the bonnet or similar parts, where pieces of steel metal meet, the kitchen may be raided to provide a cure, for the homely blacklead, used to clean the stove, is an excellent lubricant, and if it is smeared over the parts where they rub together, the squeaks will be eliminated. Oil is not satisfactory for this purpose, as it will not stay in place long enough, and, moreover, is very messy.
