Do you get your weekly washing off

Try Fels-Naptha next week and you'll
surprise your husband with good eating on
wash day.
Fels-Naptha changes the color of
Monday. Instead of ''blue Monday" and
yellow clothes, you'll have whittier clothes
and happier washday.
The clothes come out spick, span and
snowy white. And you just use cool or
lukewarm water.
No parboiling your face and hands
over a steaming, SudSy wash tub. This
ought to be reason enough for using
Fels-Naptha even if you didn't get your
washing done in just about half the time.
