Anty Drudge on True Economy.
Mrs Nuwed-'Tm economizing by doing my own wash-
ing. By boiling the clothes a long time I can get the
dirt out without much hard rubbing."
Anty Drudge- "Economizing shucks! You're burning up
money in fuel and wearing out your clothes faster
when you boil them. Use Fels-Naptha in cool or
lukewarm water without boiling. You 11 save fuel,
save your clothes and you won't have any hard rub-
bing. That's true economy."
How much are the clothes worth that
go into your weekly wksh?
Many dollars at least.
Isn't it worth while to take good care
of those clothes, ito make them wear as
long as possible?
Then, why soften them by boiling and
hardrub them into holes on the washboard?
The Fels-Naptha way of washing will
save your clothes.
Fels-Naptha will cleanse them thor-
oughly in cool or lukewarm water without;
boiling or hard rubbing, i c'
The clothes will be sweeter, cleaner and
; whiter than you can get them ; \u25a0 any other
'way. And they'll wear twice as long.
Remember,— whether winter or sum-
mery no boiling, no hot water; no hard
rubbing. • . * *'**'/
