Stained Porcelain
Dear Aunt Daisy,. Can anyone tell me how to remove the green stains on a porcelain bath caused by a califont. I recently bought a bath and although I’ve tried everything I have heard of I haven’t had very
much success.

Try making a thick plaster with kerosene and whitening, or kerosene and soap-powder, and leave the stain covered with this for as long as possible. Then put on a ftesh plaster and repeat until the stain is gone, or as much lessened as possible. A plaster of cream of tartar and peroxide used in the samme way ts even better, though a little more expensive. Unfortunately, the califont may repeat the offence! r
