STAIN REMOVAL


WRITING NIXON account of the
differences in the composition Of writ
ing inks, it is impossible to find agents
which are equally effective in remov-
ing all ink spots. Each of the agents
mentioned below is satisfactory with
some type of ink. For an ink spot of
unknown composition, it is necessary
to try various agents, beginning al
ways with the simplest and tina tbs
least likely to injure the fabric.
If the ink has been spilled on the car
pet, first apply absorbents as in meth
cd 1. These are more satisfactory than
the following methods which will re-
move the color from the carpets I'M
less used very carefully. Try repeated
applications of oxalic acid (method
~ or potassium permanganate (meth-
cd g., or rub with the cut surface of
a lemon squeezing the juice and rims
ing between applications with clean,
wet cloth until no more ink can be re-
moved. Rub the spot then with a clean,
dry cloth. After the carpet is dry,
brush up the nap with a stiff brush or
a cloth. For ink stains on other fab
RIGS, use one of the following:
1. Absorbents-To moist stain APP
ply corn meal, salt, French chalk, full
ler's earth, magnesia or talcum pow
der to remove any ink not absorbed by
the fibers and to keep it from spread
ing. For large ink spot, apply one of
these substances before trying other
agents. Work the absorbent around
with blunt instrument and renew it
when it becomes soiled. When the dry
absorbent fails to take up more ink,
make it into a paste with water and
apply again.
2. Soap and Water-If the fabric is
washable, soap and water as in ordi-
nary laundering is satisfactory for
some types of ink.
3. Milk-Soak the stains for day
or two, if necessary, changing the
milk as it becomes discolored. Pasteur-
lied milk usually is not so satisfactory
for this purpose as milk that has not
been heated.
4. OXalic Acid-Soak the stains for
The Republican. [volume] (Oakland, Md.) 1877-current, 1936-02-06

a few seconds in saturated solution
of oxalic acid, then rinse in clear water
and finally in water to which a few
drops of concentrated ammonia solu-
ton have been added.
5. Potassium Acid Oxalate-Soak
the stains for several hours, if nee
essary, in a solution of pa teaspoons
of potassium acid oxalate (salts of lem
on or salts of sorreD, dissolved in one
half pint of water.
6. Potassium Permanganate-Po
SUM permanganate is satisfactory for
stains on many delicate fabrics as well
as on ordinary materials.
7. Commercial Ink Removers-
These are generally satisfactory if the
directions furnished with them are fol
lowed and the excess of the substance
is removed by thorough rinsing in
clean water.

Hsaid that song still was his fav-
orite despite "R m m er, :"
"What'l 1 Do?" "All Alone" and
other songs that have given him
fame and fortune.
'Alexander's Ragtime Band is
as fresh today as the day it was
written" Berlin said. I'VE don't
have to plug it. It's still being
played daily by popular demand.
IT was a hit
twenty-five years ago songs
were written to be sung. Now they
are written to be listened to! Bal
lads can't be big hits today. 1t
took three months for Remember
to take roots. 1t grew" Berlin said.
The master of melody said radio
shortened the lives of popular
songs. but at the same time had
developed a much higher type of
music because radio has schooled
the public to listen to better
music and listeners demand that
type.
Berlin said that writing for the
screen was much more difficult
and exacting than writing for the
stage.
