How can I fix cracked dishes?

I have an old set of dishes..not porcelen and not potter..like mexican. They are about 70 years old and were like a perk from the National Tea... Some of the cups are cracked partially - not clear thru. I have heard you can boil them in milk. They appear they are surface cracks... Is there something that would correct this?

Heat several cups of milk in micowave for 30 seconds. Add cracked china and hope for the best. Try on a small sample piece if possible
