Beautiful
things are
everyday things
now
Look around you. See the large number of dainty silk
blouses in beautiful tints that are being worn. And the
quantities of dainty underwear the stores are showing—
sheerest, most beautiful things you have ever seen. It was
not so a few years ago. What has caused the difference?
Certainly and surely—one big factor has been Lux. Women
would not buy these things right along unless there was a
gentle. sure way of washing thein—without discoloring. warn-
ing or fading.
There is—it's the Lux way. Won't turn silks yellow—won't
hurt chidons—won't shrink woollens. Luz wont hurt any-
thing that pure water itself may touch.
