Hint from "Heloise"

I used this hint when my kids were babies. (I'd hate to say how many years ago that was!) It was recently reprinted in Good Housekeeping magazine.
I found that it worked for a lot of different stains. (Hubbys T Shirts, etc.)

"Here is an old Heloise stain-removal solution that many moms swear by. It works great on removing stains from cotton and cotton-blend baby clothes and blankets; just don't use it for fine washables, such as silk and rayon, or bright fabrics (the bleach could cause discoloration).
In a large plastic, enamel, or stainless-steel (NOT aluminum) container, mix 1 cup powdered dishwasher detergent, 1/4 cup household liquid-chlorine bleach, and one gallon hot water. Stir well to dissolve the powder. Test the solution by applying it to a spot on the fabric that's not obvious. Place garments in the solution, and soak for about five to ten minutes. Check the stains. Still there? Soak up to 20 minutes longer. Then launder in the washing machine following care-label instructions."
