There is reason in everything, but not
every reason given is true. About washing
clothes, for instance, common sense and the
chemistry of everyday life teach us that GER
tain things must be done, while others may
be left undone. Clothes must be made
clean, sweet, pure and wholesome without
either injuring the fabric or the hands of the
laundress. If these objects can be attained,
it does not matter as to what methods are
used, and the soap or soap powder, no mat
ter what it is called, that will admit of the
most varied methods of use is the handiest
Some things, however. are important to
observe. The dirt and all soap must be en-
tirely removed from the interstices of the
clothes Id all microbes must be destroyed.
The only and easiest way to do this is by
heating the water in which the clothes are
contained to the boiling point. The boiling
water, by constant sef-agitatiOn, is forced
through the interstces of the fabrics, and
thus cleanses them from dirt, and disease
breeding microbes. as they can be cleansed
in no other way-and without in any man.
ner injuring the fabric. As there is no
royal road to learning neither is there any
easier, surer or safer way of washing clothes
clean and freeing them from all disease
breeding microbes or bacteria than by using
Pyle's Pearline and to strictly follow the
directions accompanying each package.
Above all things, avoid any soap or soap
powder that does not work to best advant aRe
