The extraordinary popularity of fin

The extraordinary popularity of fine
white goods this summer makes the
choice of Starch a 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 stiffener
makes half the usual quantity of Starch
necessary, with the result of perfect
finish, equal to that when the goods
were new.
