J31X is a unique preparation made in the form
of tl~kes or wa.fers, which
e:kcels in . the washing
of l1annels, woollens and
all loosely . woven and
dainty fabrics .which are
liable to shrink.if washed
by ordinary methods.
It is a pleasure to !wash such things
*ith LUX. It yields a beautiful,
cream-like lather. It is more
than pleasure to view or to wear
the fabrics waS~ed with it. They
are a delight.
