Summer Stains
Can Be Removed
Summer vacation time is
when children's clothing is
most prone to show difficult
stains and when
mothers are most apt to
need help removing them
The most common of the
stubborn summer stains
are blood. grass, tar, chewing
gum and red clay,
according to Harriet Tutterow,
extensión clothing
specialist at North Carolina
State University.
For removing blood
stains, Miss Tutterow
recommends lukewarm
water and an enzyme presoak
Launder the garment
after presoaking. If the
stain is stubborn, a couple
of drops of ammonia may
help remove it.
Sliding into second base
may produce grass stains
that require a bit of extra
help. He re, Miss Tutterow
recommends the enzyme
pre-soak again, laundering
and bleaching, if
necessary.
For tar, place a towel
under the stained portion
of the clothing and apply
cleaning fluid, Miss Tutterow
says. Then place the
article in the wash. "A
couple of drops of ammonia
may help," she
notes.
Cleaning fluid is available
at most drug stores.
Miss Tutterow recommends
a shoetype brush
for cleaning off the tar and
a medicine dropper for
applying ammonia.
Chewing gum can be
removed with a dull knife.
"Use ice to harden the gum
and then scrape off the
residue," Miss Tutterow
recommends. Then soak
the affected areas in
cleaning fluid and launder.
The red clay so common
in this part of the country
requires a chlorine bleach,
Miss Tutterow says. Before
bleaching, apply a
heavy-duty detergent to
the stain and brush with a
shoe brush.
Then mix one teaspoon
of bleach to one tablespoon
of water, Miss Tutterow
says. Apply to garment
with dropper and do not
aJ'ow bleach to remain
more than two minutes.
Remove bleach by flushing
with >v*ter and apply ooe
teaspoon white vinegar.
Remember to treat all
stains promptly and test

Four- Legged Cures
If you suffer from heart
disease or stress, a cuddle a
day may keep the doctor
away. But if hugs are hard
to come by, the next best
thing may be a dog or a cat
ir the lap, scientists say.
A study at the Univeraity
of Maryland Hospital in Baltimore
found that heart patients
who own peta have a
better chance of survival
than those who don't.
The study involved 92
coronary disease patients
who had suffered heart attacks
or severe chest pains.
One year after hospitalization,
nearly one third of
the patients without pets
died. During that same period
only 3 of the 53 patients
with pets died.
Research indícate* that
pets also encourage exercise,
especially jogging, which
strengthens heart muscles.
Scientists have also discovered
that for those people
with high blood pressure,
silence is indeed golden, and
that a quiet friend like a
dog or cat can soothe ownera'
nerves.
