Cold water and glycerine.—Sponge the stain thoroughly with cold water to
remove all the loose foodstuff. Next work glycerine into the stain, and
let stand for half an hour. Then wash with soap and water.
Hydrogen peroxide or sodium perborate.—Remove any remaining stain by
sponging with hydrogen peroxide or with sodium perborate solution (4
tablespoons to 1 pint of water). Sponge or rinse with cold water.
