Anty Drudse's Recipe for Removing Stains

Anty Drudge-"W Well, well What's the matter, little
gir?''
Mrs Yo9pe-" "Charley's covered the table-cloh with
frult and coffee stains and it's my very best CLOTH
and because spoke of it at breakfast, he slammed
the door when he went to work, and he-he-he
didn't kiss me goodbye"
Anty Drudge-"Never mind, dearie don't cry. Get
cake of Fels-Napha soap. It'll take every stain
away with little cold or lulewarm water"
1t isn't the wearing, but the washing
that sends light clothes to the rag-bag be-
fore their time. The way to stop that is
to wash them with Fels-Naptha soap in
cold or lukewarm water. No boiling to
weaken 1heir fabric; no hard-rubbing to
wear and tear them And Fels-Naptha
won harm the most delicate lawns or laces.
Say you have lot of white shirtwaists
and things to wash Just wet them, soap
with Fels-Naptha, roll and soak for few
minutes in cold or lukewarm water. Then
rub lightly, rinse and hang on the line.
Easy, isn't it? And the clothes will be
