Four million hours at least of hard dis

Four million hours at least of hard dis
agreeable work are saved the women of
this nation every week by Fels-Naptha
soap. That is 208 million hours, or 20 mil
lion working days of hours each everyyear.
Isn't that record for Fels-Naptha to
be proud Of? Then there's the saving in
health, in the wear of clothes, and in lots
of other ways as we'll. More than mil
lion women are using Fels-Naptha every
wash-day.
1t takes Fels-Naptha in cold or
lukewarm water about half the time it
would take by the old-fashioned hot-water
way. Try next wash-day yourself. Soap
your white clothes with Fels-Naptha, roll
them and let them soak for 80 minutes.
Then give a light rub, rinse thoroughly,
and hang on the line.
No hot fire to blister your face, no
steaming suds to scald your hands, no nau-
seating smell about the house, no back
breaking work over the washboard. Isn't
it worth trying2
Directions for washing all kinds of
clothes, and many other uses Of

wrapper. Follow them carefully.

of a letter from Hilo, proposing a
game to By played against the All
Hawaii team on the Fourth of July.
for the c. C. Kennedy Cup, being the
second game in the series. The
match will be played.
Eddie requests that all men who
wish to try for the team turn out to
practise Friday afternoon at the Ma
kiki grounds
Seeker has always been very pop
ular sport here. An attempt will be
made to get some games with the
men of the Fleet when they are here,
but 1t is doubtful IL this can be done,
as letters have been received saying
that there are no teams with the
Fleet. Still. the revival of socker at
this time in such an interesting event
as that now on, will certainly give a
great impetus to the game.
