Mildew on Whites
Dear Aunt Daisy, The other day I had occasion to use your recipe for mildew spots: the chloride of lime took them out in no time and left not the slightest trace.
St.
Albans
Thet is encouraging news for people everywhere-mildew -is so Often a trouble. The remedy "St. Albans" used is to dissolve 4oz. of chloride of lime in a gallon of water (half quantities, or —
quarter, may be sufficient) and then soak the article in this liquid (carefully strained so that no Jumps of lime remain) for perhaps half an hour or less. Watch it all the time, to see the mildew fading, Remove it, then, and wash in plenty of water containing baking soda, to kill the lime. .
