You'd see multitude of small threads

When soiled clothes are boiled, the dirt
is just softened, not looSened.
When you rub them on the wash
board, the soft dirt is partly rubbed into
the tiny spaces between the threads and you
might rub till Doomsday without getting
it all out.
That's why clothes washed in the boil

They're not wholly clean.
Fels-Naptha cleanses clothes perfectly
because it attacks the dirt and dissolves it.
Breaks it up into particles which are

Fels-Naptha Soap does this in cool or

No boiling; no hard-rubbing; takes
