To Set Colours
Dear Aunt Daisy, I wonder if you could help me with a difficulty. Two years ago I bought a cherry-coloured cardigan, No matter how I wash it, the colour still just pours out. Moreover, the colour comes out when I wear it. Here is a hint for cleaning gas (or electric) ovens. Place a cloth soaked in ammonia in the oven overnight, and in the morning wipe out with a clean damp cloth. "E.S.", Onehunga. Try soaking your cardigan for 20 to 30 minutes in this solution: Two medium |: potatoes grated finely, mixed with ¥2 cup vinegar and 4 cup of ordinary salt; add I gallon of water, stir well and use.
