Confused, the teacher asked, "Where did you get that?" The kid said, "Well, you know, they are always talking about Verge n' Mary."

HOUSEHOLD HINTS
Grandma's laundry hints came to her rescue often. You will find these old fashioned household tips for laundry helpful. Old Fashioned Laundry Hints
These old-time laundry cleaning tips are taken from a number of vintage publications, including "Buckeye Cookery and Practical Housekeeping," "The Perry Home Cook Book," "The White House Cook Book," and "Young's Demonstrative Translation of Scientific Secrets."
Enjoy experimenting with these 19th-century laundry hints. You are sure to find an idea or two that will help you with a laundry problem.
To Remove Ink, Wine Or Fruit Stains
Saturate well in tomato juice; it is also an excellent thing to remove stains from the hands.
To Remove Stains of Claret Wine
As soon as claret is spilt, cover spot with salt. Let stand a few minutes, then rinse in cold water.
To Take Spots from Wash Goods
Try rubbing them with the yolk of egg before washing.
To Remove Fruit Stains
Fruit stains may be taken out by boiling water. Place the material over a basin or other vessel and pour the boiling water from the kettle over the stains.
Pour boiling water over stained surface, having it fall from a distance of three feet. This is a much better way than dipping stain in and out of hot water; or wring articles out of cold water and hang out-of-doors on a frosty night.
Mending Tip
Never put away clean clothes without examining every piece to see whether they are in any way out of order.
Novel Dress Mending
A novel way of mending a woolen or silk dress in which a round hole has been torn, and where only a patch could remedy matters, is the following: The frayed portions around the tear should be carefully smoothed, and a piece of the material, moistened with very thin mucilage, placed under the hole. A heavy weight should be put upon it until it is dry, when it is only possible to discover the mended place by careful observation.
Worn Sheets
When sheets are beginning to wear in the middle, sew the selvage sides together and rip open the old seam, or tear in two and hem the sides.
Remove Bad Smells
Articles of clothing, or of any other character, which have become impregnated with bad-smelling substances, will be freed from them by burying for a day or two in the ground. Wrap up lightly before burying.
Sounds like they were very creative in the 19th and early 20th centuries
