Polishes for Brass.

Sift coal ashes fine and mix with kerosene oil to a thick paste; add as much air-slaked lime as can be conveniently mixed with it Apply this polish to the bright parts, rubbing hard; wipe off and polish with dry slaked lime. Whiting and ammonia milted to a paste is another good polish for brass, says the Railway and Locomotive Engineer.
