A simple and safe way to clean costly and easily
injured articles is to make a suds of hot water and
Ivory Soap, and allow it to cool until lukewarm. This
solution, while very effective, is perfectly harmless.
Ivory Soap contains no alkali. It will not destroy the
surface or texture of any material, however delicate.
Ivory Soap .differs from other soaps.
facture are the purest and best.
