The Eleven Stains and how
We treat them for You

and long experience, we have
learned what is most efficacious
for each kind of stain.
Simple washing suffices for
the great majority, but for those
more stubborn, special treat
ments have been devised that
clean without harm to the fab
rio.
For paint marks we use
vaseline-gasoline tr e a m emit;
grass stains on woolens' and
silks are removed with ether;
ink spots and rust are treated
with an oxalic sour; tea, coffee,
and wines are most frequently
cured with special sodium BIZ
sulphite, or potassium perman-
ganate methods and so thru
the whole long list.
This is a supplemental help
that we render-one Of the de-
tails typical Of the thoroughness
Of our modern laundering SER
vice.
And it is service, too, that we
will be glad to give you. Learn
the joy Of complete relief from
washday's trying labors- have
our driver call for all your fam
lily washing.
The Idaho Republican. [volume] (Blackfoot, Idaho) 1904-1932, 1920-09-29

Men who have studied the sub
ject tell us there are eleven main
varieties of stains that affect
fabrics-fruit stains, beverage
stains, inks, grass, grease, wax
(including gum, dyes, paints,
oils, leather, and those of metal
lie origin, like rust.
In grandmother's time, and as
late as 1860, few means Of re-
moving spots from these causes
were known. If a garment "a
shirtwaist let us say-became
marred with something that re-
fused to wash away, it was dyed
darker hue, and this treatment
was repeated as new stains de-
veloped until eventually til e
waist became black.
Stains cause women little con-
Germ today because methods for
treating them have been worked
out. The housewife with an OBJ
stinate ink splotch on her Irish
linen table cloth, now merely in
cludes the soiled napery with
her family washing, knowing it
will come back from our laun-
dry in a few days, spotless and
refreshingly white.

Az boy he had few advantages, for
his mother was poor. He was, how

desire to write drove him to Paris,

He wrote plays for several years and
his "Henri III" scored the first great

Scores of Washingtonians mingled
among the several thousand turf
devotees who journeyed to Hagers,
town. They declared they had en-
joyed the afternoons enterta m
ment despite rainy weather and ir,
regular train service.
Only two favorites got down in
front during the running off OF the
seven events. every one of which
was hotly contested and brought
forth a thrilling finish. However
second and third choices accounted
for the balance of the card. and
the nearest approach to a long shot
was the victory of NJ. Jordan's DaI-
rose in the fourth race.
DaIrose Pays We'll.
Dalrose laid off the early pace
but came strong in the closing
quarter, to win handily from Slick
II and Rey Ennis.
He paid his supporters $3.50 for
81 mutual ticket.
Usually. at a short race meeting
such as is being held at Hagers-
town. one or two riding stars are
developed. Such was the case yes
terday. when jockeys Conners and
Dawson took down the laurcIs.
Jockey Dawson won the first two
races. and Jockey Conners then ac-
counted for the next three. Jockeys
Hileman and Jackson rode the two
remaining winners.
During the running of the first
couple of races a steady drizzling
rain tried to spoil the sport. but the
best it could do was to make The
track heavy. When the sun came
out the track dried out quite a bit
and it will probably be good today.
Credit to OhciaIs.
officials in charge of the Hagers-
town race meeting deserve credit
for the many conveniences they have
installed for their patrons. In front
of the grandstand in the infield has
been erected a huge board showing
the amount of money wagered on
each race. This advantage is not
enjoyed at any of the larger tracks.
Perhaps the most thrilling race of
the day came in the opening event

of lifting a high pitch he raped

the green six feet from the cup and
pulled up stone dead as il he had

less than a foot putt for the best
round of the day.
Only a skillful confident player in
full control OF his nervous system
could have played a shot of this
type just at that moment for IL the
effort had gone wrong he would
have been in a trap back OF the
