[TARPER TWEL YETREES' SOAP POWDER.'

rlubzcell: But do you mean to say that you have wasked
all that lot of clothes before breakfast this morning?
Thrifty : Oh, yes! it's easy enough now to get rid of all the
slap-dash, steam, and dribbling slops on a washing day in
good time, by using "HARPER TWELVETREEs' SOAP
POWDER," and it snakes the clothes beautifully clean and
white too, I assure you. It is so soft and healing to the haads,
and makes such a fine nice lather. Besides, I never rub our
clothes, and you know how black` my Jim's shirts get at the
Foundry.
