SION * pe 2RY woman knows that one of the greatest annoy- ances is working with starch that forms a thick, sticky jelly the moment it is cool. This heavy, pasty starch clots and smears your fabrics, and often causes your iron to stick. All this trouble has now been overcome with Linit, the new scientific starch, New Starch Discovery HIS remarkable starch is made by an improved! proc- ess that keeps it fluid after it cools, You are never troubled with clotting, smearing or “‘blis- tering.’” Linit penetrates every thread of the fabric, helps pre- * * vent wear, and strengthens the material. Linit gives ordinary cotton goods an attractive linen finish andyour Linit-starched garments remain clean and fresh much longer. Important to you AX Linit is thoroughly dissolved according to di- rections, and ready for use, you will notice it is THIN and FREE-RUNNING LIKE WATER—with a ‘‘milky’’ ap- pearance. Be sure to use Linit according to directions, and, un- like other starches, you will not find Linitstiff or jelly-like. This is one reason why Linit goes much further than the old-fash- ioned kind of starches and is easier to iron with. Linit costs 10c at all grocers Get a package and begin the modern way of starching your fabrics. Perfection in starching guaranteed or your money re- funded. Linit is made by the Corn Products Refining Company— makers of the famous Argo Starch—Karo Syrup and Mazola Salad and Cooking Oil. JOHNSON -LIEBER CO.
