Heard any good cold water hints? I've got a flood of them! And lastly, if a dinner guest knocks over his red wine onto your best table- cloth, pour a liberal amount of table salt over the wine stain. This helps to absorb the stain before it sets too quickly. A paste of lemon juice and baking soda should then be applied to the affected area.

But remember, while wine and salt do not always mix ... they both can get you pickled! Now, this next tip sounds like it has come right out of the Vampire's Handbook," but I've been told it really works! In order to get rid of a blood stain from clothing. try applying a paste made of meat-tenderising crystals and cold water. Allow to sit for about three-quar- ters of an hour and then rinse in cool water. Worth a try, huh! (Continued from page 15) make up a paste of lemon juice and salt. Apply the paste to the stained area and hang the article outside in the sun to dry ... and that should do the trick. Another method you could try is to cover the stain with cream of tartar.
