took six weeks. which considered

Chicago. May 1O.-To three Of the
large fashionable women's clubs of
Chicago the stork in the past year
has paid one visit, and only one. The
West End Woman's club, with a
membership OF $50, boasts of
only one Club baby" for the
year, and the same is true of the
Chicago Culture club. with $50 men,
bers. and the Social Economies club,
a South Side organization, whose
members number 125. This startling
commentary on the birth rate among
fashionable women was disclosed fol-
lowing the receipt of dispatch from
Omaha stating that of the 400 mem
bers OF the Omaha Woman's club,
only one had become mother during
the last year.
AS welcome as the flowers Of May.

Sounds odd, doesn't i'll
But it's true.
Fels- Naptha is more economical be-
cause it saves time, saves work, saves the
cost of fuel and makes your clothes wear
twice as long.
Fels- Naptha cleans your clothes in
cool or lukewarm water in summer or
winter without boiling or hot water to
weaken their fabric, and without hard
rubbing to wear them into holes.
1t takes half as long and requires
much less work than the old way.
