They will observe the Worlc at with Perfume Will Stain Your Clothes Put perfume on your skin, not on your clothes, states Miss Sara Keim, extension home economics representative in Huntingdon County. Perfume often stains clothing. It will do more for yoi if applied on the skin and it is easier to wash off the skin than it is to wash out of clothes.

On a dress, perfumes become stale and the odor often changes or clings to the fabi'ic through dry cleaning. If different perfumes are added repeatedly to a garment, an unpleasant odor is bull up until nothing but a completec laundering can remove it. Some times, moisture used in pressing will bring out stale perfume odoi months after it has been appliec to the garment. Perfume often contains materials which turn fabric yellow 01 brown. These stains are very difficult to rem.ove.

The alcohol in most perfumes may cause dyes to circle and bleed. Kabrics containing cellulose acetate rayon are easily stainec by most perfumes. stains in white -garments may be removed with hydrogen peroxide. In other garments, fresh stains usually can be removed with alcohol. But before trying it, test the edge of a scan- to be sure the color is fast to al cohol.

If this does not work, using alternate applications ammonia water and acetic acid. Always rinse out any kind of stain remover with lukewarm water, after applying it. Put foldec bath towel under the spot, anc with a soft pad of cloth, pat clear water through the stained par until the stain remover is gone.
