In the pictures in the New York Times of a hospital train in France ! there was so doubt by many people | if the officer supposed to be Dr. O'Neil of this city was really he, as the fe tures were not very clear, but a pic- ture in this week's Independent shows that he is connected with that train. The picture shows four doctors who have charge of train No. 43, lined up in front of it. and one of them surely Dr. O'Neil, as the features are very plain. The Times' pictures were of the same train.

Amos- B—--> HE Princess Nausicaa- and her maidens, poor dears, how their backs used to ache when they washed the clothes at the river. . What if she was the daughter of the King of Phaecia, as the classical story goes, the Prin- cess Nausicaa had to take her linens to the river herself and pound the dirt out with stones until she could have screamed from the pain in her regal little back. It was hard on the royal linens, too—the pounding of the rocks soon wore them out. But what else could a poor Princess do—she musthavecleanclothes, and that was the only way she knew to get them clean. Grandmother’s method is dead as a door nail Then came our grandmothers. ‘True, they had soap—but they still had to rub, rub, rub their clothes. First they rubbed in the soap—then they rubbed it out again against hard [ L 10 Suds, 4 s antiqu-a-tve . Are you still keeping on with the old-fashioned rub, rub, rub? wash-boards. It ruined fine fabrics —so they wore only sturdy, heavy materials, except on high state occa- sions., It was hard, back-breaking work. So those that could afford it let servants launder even their fine things. The modern way— no rubbing And now comes the modern girl. How blithely she dons frail Georgette waists and chiffons—silk stockings’ and even silk underwear for every day. She has learned the modern way —the Lux way—of washing delicate fabrics without rubbing, without To wash silk blouses Whisk a tablespoonful of Lux into a thick lather 1n half 2 basinful of boiling or very hot water. Add cold water till lukewarm. Dip your blouse through the foamy lather many times. Squeeze the suds through it—do not rub. Rinse in three waters of the same temperature as the water in which you washed it. Squeeze the gnm‘ out—do not wring. Dry in the shi¥e. When nearly dry press with a warm iron—never a hot one. Georgette Crepe blouses should be gently pulled Ynto shape as they dry and also should be shaped as they are ironed. Grandmother’s way of rubbing cake soap on to fine fabrics was ruinous. Try the modern way—just dipping delicate things up and down in pure Lux It keeps them like new, d as Hoop Skiks yellowing or dimming their eoler: She wears her finest: things often, and keeps them new with Lux. With the delicate Lux flakes you can cleanse your sheerest, your silki- est, your most princessly garments without theold-time princessly back- ache. You can have all your loveli- est silks, your softest woolens, your finest laces come out of the wash with all the beauty of absolutely new things. Just toss the Lux flakes into hot' water and whip up the richest lather sou ever saw. If you are doing silks or colored fabrics, add cold water until lukewarm, Then dip the gar- ment up and down in the rich suds till the dirt has vanished. Lux harms nothing that clear water alone will not injure, Try it and know for yourself why grandmother’s method of laundering fine things is as passé—as dead and gone—as Nausicaa’s rocks. If you have given up hoop skirts —give up that old-fashioned rub, rub, rub. E Use Lux and be happy. Get it at grocers, druggists or department stores—Lever Bros. Co., Cambridge, Mass.
