Fels~Naptha has many other uses be-

It takes out coffee stains, blood stains,
fruit stains and grease-spots, almost like
magic. And in cool or lukewarm water,
too. Never use hot water with Fels-Naptha.
Fels-Naptha whitens floors, make the
painted woodwork bright, and mai kes the
oil cloths and linoleums look like new.
For glassware and cut-glass, there is
nothing better than Fels-Naptha. Puts the
sparkle on them that you like.
Feb-Naptha and soft cloth will keep
that porcelain bath tub always clean and
shining.
ALI done without boiling water, and
scrubbing brush.
Don't stick to old fashioned methods
just because your mother or her mother did,
Be modern, and save time and strength.
Try it when you clean. Try the
Fels-Naptha way Of washing and divide the
work and time in two.

nal support Of all Missouri office hold
