Pour four gallons of boiling water over six pounds of washing soda and three pounds of unslacked lime; stir the mixture well and let it settle until perfectly clear, then drain off the water, add six pounds of grease and boil for two hours, stirring most of the time. If it should be too thick, pour more water over the lime and add it to the boiling mixture; it is well to add a handful of soajD. Perfume as you please.
