To Remove Rust from Steel

Rust may be removed from steel by immersing the article in kerosene oil for a few days. The rust will become so much loosened that it may easily be rubbed off. By this simple method badly rusted knives and forks may be made to present a tolerable appearance, but for new goods there is no way to remove rust from metal but by getting below it, or renewing the surface. Where it is not deep-seated, emery paper will do, but if long standing the goods must be refinished.
