So easy, says every woman, after her
first trial of the Fels-Naptha way of washing.
And 50 quick, and such clean, sweet
smelling batch OF clothes
And that, too, without boiling or
sealding hot waterl
And no back-breaking work on the
wash-boardl
And yet, perhaps, that same delighted
woman had been going to Try Fels-Naptha
almost every washday for years before she
actually did. For some reason OF other
(which is no reason at all she kept on
working the old-fashioned, out-of-date way
until sudden impulse determined her to
Try Fels-Naptha. And then ever after
wards so easy washdays.
Be sure and use Fels-Naptha the
Fels-Naptha way. Follow directions on
the red and green wrapper.
