MANY REMOVERS
 FOR MANY STAINS

For iron rust, moisten stain with ammonia, then apply lemon, after which dip in boiling water.
 For machine oil stain, soak in cold water and then wash out with warm water and soap. Some times it is a good idea to put a little borax in the cold water for soaking.
 There is nothing like strong sun- shine for removing the slig hi scorched marks that have beer made on your nice new tablecloth A little rain water will help, fol there is no softer water than this
 For tea stain, cover with salt then with lemon juice and place in sunshine for drying
 Egg stain can be removed by using cold water first, then wash ing thoroughly with hot water and soap.
