The extraordinary popularity of fine
white goods this summer makes the
choice Of Starch matter of great i'm
portance. Defiance Starch, being free
from all injurious chemicals, is the
only one which is safe to use on fine
fabrics. Its great strength as a stiff

Starch necessary, with the result OF
perfect finish, equal to that when the
goods were new.

government is AT present purchasing twenty-eight
different kinds of ink 27S different kinds of pens

paying 81 20 dozen quarts for ink and another is
