Anty Drudge Tells How.

Mrs. KoaOor-''Well, must be going Now mind, you
come and see next week. Any day cept Monday:
That's my wash-day, and the house will be full of
steamy soap-suds and me too tired to make you
cup Of tea
Anty Drudge That's just the day I'll come And III
be there bright and early with cake of Fes-Naptha
soap. The wash will be on the line before noon-and
the ironing done before night"
If you found it easier to do your
washing on Tuesday than on Monday, you
would change at once. Sensible women
would! Yet there are some women who
still wash clothes in the old-fashioned, hard
rubbing way, just because their mothers
taught them so.
Are you wearing out yourself and your
clothes boiling and rubbing? Why not
try Fels-Naptha soap' It's the new, mod
ern way Of washing. Use it in cold or
lukewarm water-no boiling or hard-rub-
bing and your clothes will be cleaner,
whittier, and wear longer.
Follow directions on the red and green
wrapper.
