Mustard for Ink Stains
Dear Aunt Daisy, I wonder if you know about taking ink out of clothing by putting some made mustard on the part affected? I have been most successful with it, and last week it had a really good test. My sister spilt a bottle of ink on her desk, and it ran down on to a light blue cardigan she was wearing. I immediately put some mustard on it, and when I rinsed the cardigan out with warm soapy water next morning, every trace of the ink had gone. This was a really
bad. stain.-

Thank you very much. Another method is to rub the stain with a cut tomato, and wash it out in a few minutes.
