STAIN REMOVERS AND
HOW TO USE THEM

Some stains may be removed by
brushing or rubbing, others must be
treated with special stain removers.
Some are made by a combination of
substances, and it may take COM
bnation of methods to remove them.
ABSORBENTS
These are the simplest and safest
cleaning agents. Common ones are
blottng paper, unglazed paper, tai
cum, French chalk, fuller's earth,
starch, meals, and sawdust. They are
used chiefly for grease stains blood
and ink stains and freshly spilled
liquids.
TO USE ABSORBENTS
Cover grease spots with a powder
ed absorber, let stand several hours,
then brush. Or lay the material on
white blotting or unglazed paper and
cover with powder or more paper;
apply warm iron; repeat, using
fresh powder or paper until the stain
is entirely removed. Cover dry blood
and ink stains with starch paste;
when the paste dries and discolors,
brush off and repeat until the stain
disappears. Cover freshly spilled
liquids with powder, meal, or bits of
blotting paper; this prevents the
liquid from spreading and sinking in
to the material.
SOLVENTS
These dissolve grease, sugar, and
some other substances that hold
stains in fabrics. The most common
solvent is water; others are alcohol,
benzine, carbon, tetrachloride chic
reform, ether, gasoline, kerosene and
turpentine.
To Use Water
Soak washable goods in cold water
and wash with cold or tepid water
and white soap. Use hot water in
the same way or by spreading the
stained goods over a bowl and pour
ing boiling water from a height eau
ton: Hot water sets some stains,
such as blood, meat juice and egg. !.
Place non-washable materials over
a pad of white cloth or absorbent
paper. Sponge, using very little wat
er at time. Change the pad as it.
becomes soiled or wet. Rub gently
till dry, Caution: Water should not
be used on some materials because it
spots them.
To Use Other Solvents
Place the stained goods over pad of
cloth or paper and apply the solvent,
using glass rod or stick with a
rounded end. Work from the edge of
the stain toward the center. Sur
rounding the spot with powder keeps
the liquid from spreading and helps
to prevent a ring forming. Change
the pad as it becomes soiled or wet.
NEUTRALIZERS
If the stain is made by an acid,
treat it with an alkaline substance. If
it is made by an alkali, weak acid
may restore the color. Acids and
altalies have an opposite effect and
are said to "neutralize" each other.
To Use Neutralizers
Common acid stains are made by
sour fruit juices and vinegar Neu-
tralize these by using a solution made
Of about Ia teaspoon of ammonia,
baking soda, or borax to 1 cup water.
Spread the stained material over

However, when it was washed the
first time, the lace tore in several
places and it took half Of Il valuable

lost its new stiffness and appeared
rather coarse and cheap. When she

happy over its effect, Tor it looked
cheap and in poor taste, even to her.

For what did she spend her mon

workmanship and poor material. In
the second she paid for little but
tasteful trimming, good workmanship
and good material. For what do you
pay when you buy clothing?

Possession Beoets Desire.

A man doesn't really know what
money will do for him until he has
lot of it. That is why men want more
as they get more. The same is true
of knowledge, or fame, or friends, or
religion.

The Target at Fault.

A company of militia had been out
all day for target practice, and on
their return the captain said to one
of the sergeants: GLOW are your men
coming along, sergeant" "Well, sill"

pride, ''my men shot very well today,
very well, but they would have shot
better perhaps If the target had stood

SHOPPING WISDOM

Choose slowly and thoughtfully.
Learn to recognize quality. A reliable salesman
will help you in this.
Choose good materials for things that will get
hard wear.
Avoid novelties and fads in design and color.
They soon become tiresome and the price usually
protects the merchant against loss from leftover
stock.
Reckon in advance how much material you need
In buying ready made clothing, insist on good
Materials style, and workmanship If you always
do this the dealers will be encouraged to supply
them.
Be sure that the thing you choose is becoming
to you and appropriate to it's purpose.
Buy the thing that will serve for more than one
sort of occasion time of year.
Look for simplicity of line and decoration
Garments extreme in style are never economical
and rarely becoming.
