Five Strong Reasons for Fall
PAINTING.
1. In the fall, the surface is thoroughly dry. During the spring a
surface which needs repainting is sure to contain moisture and damp
ness or frost, and it cannot be successfully painted until it has thoroughly
dried out.
2. When t'.ie wood is dry. absorbs more of the paint. The paint
penetrates deeper into the wood, therefore gets a firmer hold on it, giv
lng the paint coating greater tenacity or holding qualities.
3. Paint cannot be applied as successfully in damp, cloudy or un.
settled weather as in warm, sunny weather, in the fall the weather is
more settled and uniform and is warmer, therefore it is an excellent time
for painting.
4. A house needs its protecting coat of paint more, in the winter
months than at any other time. A hous in need of repainting should
never be allowed to go over the winter without this protection.
5. It is easier to keep moisture and dampness out by applying a
coat of paint when the surface is dy, than it is to get moisture or damp
Bess out of the wood when you want to apply paint.

as rollin' ofia log."

Do your washing without a fire next

and the cost of fuel.
' . ' Wash your clothes with Fels-Naptha

needed.
It saves the clothes because there's no
boiling to weaken them and no hard
rubbing to wear them out. ;
Intakes less than half the time of the
old way . , ,
And this Fels-Naptha way of wash
ing in cool or lukewarm water makes
your clothes cleaner, sweeter, and fresher
than if you boiled and hard-rubbed 'em

Don't take a, substitute for
Fels-Naptha because it will not do the
work. ,
