Old-fashioned ways may be best in some
things but not in washing clothes.
The modern woman wants to get
through with her washing as quickly as
possible with the least work.
That is why she prefers the Fels-Naptha
way.
There's nothing old-fashioned about
Fels-Naptha.
It's distinctly modern and scientific.
Ii dissolves all kinds OF dirt in cool or
lukcwarm water without boiling or hard
rubbing.
1t cuts down the time for washing to
one-half or less.
1t saves fuel.
1t saves the clothes
1t leaves the woman fresh and happy
after the washing is done instead of tired
and bad humored.
All this wouldn't persuade any one to
use Fels-Naptha If the clothes didn't come
our of the wash bright and clean.
But they do-cleaner than if they had
been boiled and rubbed for half day.
Works just as wonderfully with hannels,
soolens, colored clothes as with the white
things.
Follow directions on the red and green
wapper.

Care in Preparing Food.

In recent years scientists have
proved that the value of food is meas
ured largely by its purity; the re-
suit is the most stringent pure food
laws that have ever been known.
One food that has stood out promi.
nently as perfectly clean and pure
food and which was as pure before
the enactment of these laws as It
could possibly be is Quaker Scotch
Oats; conceded by the experts to be
the ideal food for making strength Of
muscle and brain. The best and cheap
est Of all foods. The Quaker Oats Gem
pany is the only manufacturer of oat-
meal that has satisfactorily solved the
problem of removing the husks and
black specks which are 50 annoying

For hot climates Quaker Scotch Oats
is packed in Theoretically sealed tins,

The complete success of the new
fuel while on the 2650-mile public
test and the advantages gained
through its use were well described
in the following dispatch which the
correspondent Of the New York Sur
sent to his paper at the conclusion OF
the tour:
"A feature of the tour which war
watched with special interest was
that the White Steamer used kero
sene, or coal OIL as fuel instead of
gasoline. The new fuel worked
splendidly throughout the 2650-mile
journey, and all claims made in its
behalf were fully proven. First of
all, as regards cheapness, the White
driver secured kerosene all along the
route from cents to 10 cents cheap
er per gallon than was paid for gase-
line. Secondly, the new fuel was
handled without any precautions, and
it was not unusual to see kerosene
being poured into the fuel tank while
the crew of the car and an interested
crowd stood by with lighted cigars
and cigarettes. At the finish of the
tour, the White was the only car per-
mitted by the authorities to enter
Convention Hall, where the technical
examination took place, without
draining it's fuel tank. Thirdly, the
new fuel proved to be absolutely
without smoke or smell. Fourthly,
kerosene could be purchased at what
ever part of the route was most con-
venient, and not once during the trip
through the ten States of the Middle
West was there found a grocery store
where kerosene was not readily and
cheaply obtainable. Finally, the
