ALCO NOX Cleans Better, tooWhat's your toughest cleaning problem? Give it toAlconox, the soapless cleaner that works on a new prin-ciple. Tests show Alconox removes grit, grease, grime,dirt from hard-to-clean glass, metal, porcelain ware, etc.,at least 15% to 12% faster than soap cleaners.

Leaves them sparkling. No film; no streaks. Con-tains no soap, yet gives rich suds even in hard water.Amazingly --onomical as to cost and storage. One spoon-

ful makes a gallon of active cleanser.
