Cleaning Gold Chains

Put the chain in a small glass bottle, with warm water, a little tooth-powder and some soap. Cork the bottle, and shake it for a minute violently. The friction against the glass polishes the gold, and the soap and chalk extract every particle of grease and dirt from the interstices of a chain of the most intricate pattern; rinse it in clear, cold water, and wipe with a towel.
