Every housekeeper should know that
if they will buy Defiance Cold Water
Starch for laundry use they will save
not only time, because it never sticks
to the iron, but because each package
contains 10 oz. one full pound while
all other Cold Water Starches are put
up in pound packages and the price
is the same, 10 cents. Then again bs
causo Defiance Starch is free from all
injurious chemicals. If your grocer
tries to sell you a l'J-oz. package it is
because he has a stock on hand which
he wishes to dispose of before he puts
in Defiance. He knows that the De
fiance Starch has printed on every
package In large letters and figured
10 ozs", Domand Defiance and save
much time and money and the annoy
ance of the iron sticking. Defiance
never sticks.
