How much of Monday do Won

How much of Monday do you spend
at the wash-tub? Far too long if you wash
clothes any way except the Fels-Naptha
way. One of the greatest blessings of
FelS-Naptha soap is its quick action. When
you use Fels-Naptha, half hour soaking
In cold or lukewarm water will thoroughly
loosen the dirt. While the clothes soak
you are free to do other work. Then rub
lightly, rinse and the clothes are ready for
the line.
Fels-Naptha soap robs Monday of it's
drudgery. But it must be used the
Fels-Naptha way-no boiling, no hot water.
Follow directions on the Eed.and green
wrapper.
