endless source of worry and expense.

your dear cretonnes, your exquisite table
linens, even your w colics t blanketscan be
kept lovely and fresh with Lux.
Jumble your daintiest things embroid- -
ered pillow-slips, doilies -even lamp shades
into the Lux suds. There is not a tiny
particle of solid soap to stick to .the soft fibre
and injure it. Not a bit of rubbing to fray
and shrink it. Only squeezing the suds
gently through the fabric again and again.
Lux won't hurt anything pure water alone
won't injure. Get Lux from your grocer,
druggist or department store. Lever Bros.
