Fels-Naptha will clean windows and
polish them at the same time. 1t is the
only soap that will scut'' smoke grease
without securing. Fels-Naptha is just as
superior for washing dishes as for washing
clothes. And as it is used in cold or luke
warm water there is no danger of cracking
fine china or glassware. For washing floors,
walls, linoleum or anything else that is
washable you'll find Fels-Naptha, cold or
lukewarm water and soft cloth, an unbeat-

And don't forget that Fels- Naptha is
the best kind of an antiseptic. Germs do
