Excerpt from The Practical Dry Cleaner, Scourer, and Garment Dyer: Comprising Dry or Chemical Cleaning; Purification of Benzine; Removing Stains; Wet Cleaning; Finishing Cleaned Fabrics; Cleaning and Dyeing Furs, Skin Rugs and Mats; Cleaning and Dyeing Feathers; Bleaching and Dyeing Straw Hats; Cleaning and Dyeing Gloves In preparing the edition of the Practical Scourer and Garment Dyer, the original scope of the work, which is that of a handbook on the processes employed by the Cleaning and Dyeing Trades, has been adhered to, and the text on which the book is now based is expressed in the title The Practical Dry Cleaner, Scourer And Garment Dyer. It may, however, be well to point out that in this edition the subject of Dry Cleaning has been treated with greater amplitude than in the old one, and that the section Cleaning and Dyeing Furs, Skin Rugs and Mats here given, appears now for the first time. It has been endeavored to bring the matter of the work to the level of the latest developments, which necessitated the rewriting to a great extent of every section, so as to bring the book up to date, and render it serviceable as a reference and guide to the processes and improvements which have from time to time been introduced, and practically applied either at home or abroad.
