clothes lose their color. So don’t—even
once—risk using strong powdered soap.

“SUCTION SUDS”! These thick,
rich suds draw dirt out, don’t eat it out.

a trap. Harsh soaps can eaf dirt out... rubbing can grind
it loose ... But Chipso "SUCTION SUDS’’ engulf these
particles of dirt and draw them out! Not a thread injured!
Not a color faded!
