For they produced a liquid which would make all woolen cloth mothproof— so that moth-worms would not eat it. And they named this liquid, Larvex. It took them 18 months of expe:.mnenting to produce Larvex. And months more to test it. They sprayed Larvex on hundreds of woolen samples. They covered the samples with thousands of moth-worms. And in all that time not one hole was eaten in a single sample. For the first time since the first moth, here was pro- tection that was absolutely sure. (Remember—moths are harmless. They merely lay eggs which hatch into moth-worms—the moth-worms do all the eating.) Just to .spray ¢ hings with Larvex—and forget them— and know they are abso- lutely safe from moth-at- tack —what a relief! Use Larvex to mothproof— woman should know Larvex is very easy to use—as 1,000,000 women have already found out. Spray it thoroughly on any woolen lrlu:l:. It penetrates and becomes part of the cloth—makes the cloth absolutely mothproof—makes woolen things as distasteful to moth-worms as cotton or paper. So that no moth-worm or carpet ‘beetle will eat them. And one thorough spraying lasts an entire season. No further odorless. And non-inflammable. Ton at $3 or the gallon at $5. Larvex today.
