He used Lux for the suds in the dish pan, because, he said, Lux made better auds in half the time of anything else, also because Lux was easier on his hands. "Sailors, he said, use Lux because their hands are often badly chapped and broken and Lux is soothing. "Now I myself follow Joe's plan in doing dishes, and 1 always use Lux. The difference it has made in the looks of my hands is really amazing. Lux keeps them so white and smooth, that I've passed on the hint to my friends." Because Lux contains none of the harmful alkali found in many house hold soaps, whether flakes, chips or cakes, it never irritates even the most sensitive skin, never dries the delicate oils of the hands. And the big package of Lux washes 6 weeks' dishes. MARION flDAVTES M : I If you don't think the IL good old days had their 5tL. flappers, take a look at L Jjj -4 4 this picture.
