A TEMPORARY CLEANER
FOR SOILED DRESS.
It may happen that on removing a pastel-shaded dance or dinner frock, it will be found to be slightly soiled at the base of the neck, hem, or to have been splashed accidentally with wine or coffee.
An efficient method. of dry-cleaning if this particular dress is wanted for wear too soon to be sent to the “cleaner proper” for return in time, is to sprinkle a little powdered French chalk or even good talc powder, generously on the soiled portions. Leave wrapped in a clean bath-towel overnight and until just before needed. Then shake frock gently and press with warm iron. Stains should now have disappeared.
