swear" is nothing but rubbing"

"Wear' is nothing but rubbing"
Every time you hard rub your clothes
against anything, little PARTICLES are
rubbed away.
Boiling softens the fibre of cotton,
linen, silk and wool, and when rubbed
hard on the washboard they wear away
faster than at any other time.
Try to think how many days of wear
are represented by one trip to the old
time washtub.
Fels-Naptha requires neither boiling
water nor hard rubbing.
And there is no waShboard wear on
the clothes washed the Fels-Naptha way.
FelS-Naptha is made to do away with
boiling and hard rubbing; therefore if
you use it as an ordinary soap, you cause
yourself unnecessary work.
Use Fels-Naptha in cool or luke
warm water and it will do all we claim.
1t will cut the washday in half, sum
mer or winter, and do silently and effec-
lively all the real hard work.

STATE PRESS ON
DOVER TICKET
Dover Sentinel COmmendS
the Nomination of Mr.. Davis
For AttOrney-GeneraI

DOVER, Aug. 29.-Much interest
centered to-day in the comment of the
State press upon the new Republican
ticket and the work of the convention
here last Tuesday. The Union Re-
publican Of Georgetown makes no edi-
torial comment upon the ticket of can
didates.
The Sentinel Of Dover, referring to
the exciting fight for attorney general,
and the charges that Candidate Davis
doomed himself in his paper, the Sem
tinel, while writing editorial matter
for that paper. says:
''Mr. Daniel Hastings was not de-
feated for attorney general because he
is not qualified for the position. He
was not defeated because he has few
friends in the lower counties. He was
not defeated because he has not made
an excellent deputy attorney-ge
for he has; but he was defeated be-
cause New Castle county had her first
choice, Sussex county had her first
choice, and the spirit Of fair play, so
manifest in the convention. demanded
that Kent be given her first choice;
and Kent county selected Frank II.
Davis for attorney-general.
much has been said and written on
this subject, certain members of the
press openly charging Mr.. Davis with
booming himself in the Sentinel, which
we emphatically deny, but since the
Sentinel is held sponsor for Mr.. Davis,
we win assume the responsibility, and
state here and now that Mr.. Davis will
measure up TO the full requirements of
the office. He is absolutely free from
entangling alliances of any description
and is prepared to do his duty without
fear or favor"
The Milton Times. a Republican
paper which supports DR.. Caleb r. Lay,
ton in Sussex county. says; "The nom.
ination of Charles Maull Of Lewes FOL
insurance commissioner and d. o
Moore of Laurel for State Treasurer, Il
lpleasing TO local Republicans, but tn,
nomination Of Simeon Pennewill 70
governor does not set so we'll"
The Milford Chronicle, for some tim
regarded as an "anti- organization
paper" comes out in praise and ful
support of the whole ticket and high
ly commends the State platform.
