From the standpoint of clothes, and the inevitable spilling and staining,' a few words to the wise can help avoid serious consequences. SOFT DRINKS. All of the common soft drinks, such ag, the colas, rootbeer, ginger ale, and "pop" fall into the category of thit "tannin-like" stains. These^remAin invisible until heat is applied. Then a characteristic brown stain appears -- fixed for good. The same suggestions apply here that do for all "tannin-like" stains. If the garment is washable, sponge it out with clear water only. NEVER USE SOAP. And don't iron until absolutely sure all of the soft drink is out. If the garment is a dry cleanable one, DO NOTHING. No rubbing or wiping. And if you'll tell us where the stain is when you bring the garment in, we'll give it the special treatment such stains require. And don't let the garment sit around in the closet. Moths just love stains. I ALCOHOLIC DRINKS. In general, the same precautions as with soft ^rtnM'the « inception is that alcohol frequently causes dyes to bleed off. There is, unfortunately, no real remedy for this. And so it follows that, with washable garments, you may take immediate emergency treatment yourself. Naturally, the sooner after staining you do, the better. AVitl^Bry cleanable garments we recommend that you immediately bring them in for cleaning. In either case, the reason for quick action is that--in addition to the reasons cited above--the longer the stains stay on the fabric the more deeply Imbedded they become--and through aging, the more permanently fixed.
