old book 1

Hate the smell of old books?  I do.  It makes me sneeze non-stop!  So when I heard that talcum powder does the trick, I did it to my old books.  Here’s how you should do it:  Sprinkle talcum powder between the pages of the book, then wrap each book in a small paper bag and store for a few months.  The talc will absorb stale smells while the bag collects odor-causing moisture.  When you take it out of the wrapper, brush off the powder and your favorite reads will smell like new again.
