Stains and Red Hands

If the water is hard it should be boiled and a few drops of benzoin, which whitens the skin, should be added. Stains may be removed with lemon juice.

If the hands have been long in water and look parboiled use vinegar. When doing housework protect the nails by dipping them in lard or vaseline, and always wear gloves.

For rough hands use a good hand cream.
