Show Household Hints. Take a piece if common white chalk, scrape it to a powder, add as much water as will produce a paste and apply the paste to the surface of stained ivory. If stains are very bad two, three or even more applications may be required. If you wish to preserve oilcloths and have them look nice and new, wash them with soft flannel and lukewarm luke-warm water and wipe thoroughly dry. To keep moths away from clothing, wrap each article in stiff brown paper, secure all around, either with gum. paste or close stitching; in fact, make as airtight as possible.
