When women first began to wash
clothes, they soaked them in stream and
beat them with paddle. A hard job it
was then to get rid of dirt
Then someone found that fat and I've
made a substance which, mixed with hot
water and rubbed hard, cleaned things
pretty well. This was soap.
Finally, came Fels-Naptha.
Fels-Naptha isn't simply good soap;
it's different altogether from soap as you
know it.
Fels-Naptha marks as big an advance
over soap in its usual meaning, as ordinary
soap itself did over the paddle.
Ordinary soap calls for much hard
rubbing and plenty Of boiling water to take
away dirt. Some kinds Of stains, greases
and blood it simply won't remove.
But Fels-Naptha cleans without hard
rubbing and you don't use hot water at all.
With Fels-Naptha all you need is cool
or lukewarm water.
Think how this cuts all the terror out
of washday.

QUEEN REGNANT

by Lotto Aite Weir in N. o, States)
The mother is in the position Of
queen regnant at the head Of household
affairs, hut they sometimes forget this
and are too ready to accept the role of
victims for sacrifice The family and
the home are one and the same, Natur-
ally the father is the bread winner and
the mother the caretalter, rightly admin
istering and supervising the provision
consequent on the family income.
The wife whose attitude is not that
Of queen regnant, but of a pensioner,
is not admitted to the full confidence
Of her husband in the province of home
finance, and receive as dole what
should be accorded to her on footing
Of equality rather than of privilege,
This common mistake is often the
cause of many husbands assuming the
attitude that they, and they alone, are
the guardian of the family purse and
may be liberal or tightfist las it pleases
them.
| know beautiful woman, the moth
er of five little children who have fol-
lowed each other into the world at in
tervals Of fifteen and eighteen months,
a moman who is never without baby in
Ter arms. and who Is beginning to feel
and show the strain OF her maternity.
nol long ago said to me that she would
give anything for a chance 10 earn some
money
Yet her husband is a good man has
q proud pre-eminence i'll the affairs Of
this city, he is rapidly accommodating
wealth, his name heads many sub
seription list, and is extremely liberal
lin whatever concerns municipal inn
provement This woman made the same
mistake that is made by 50 many young
wives. In the beginning she was too
willing to forego the tender attentions
that belong 10 the days of courtship,
too ready 10 be set in the background Of
her husbands life, and thus, little BY
little, losing her rightful position as
his partner aud comrade and becoming
the manager of the kitchen, instead of
presiding genius Of the home
Reluctant motherhood having its
source in selfishness and unwillingness
to accept the obligations of the family
is great mistake that comes very near
the proportions Of a crime But there
are iustifiable Observation-Disclosures
should be intelligent Self-effacement
and voluntary sacrifice leads woman
to forget what she owes to her husband as
his eomrade and counselor and to her
children as their guardian, helper and
guide, and may in consequence make
them very desolate by falling into a
premature grave.
