Militant BOrax

Plain soap is like lazy mule. 1t has
the power but 1t takes lot o. work TO
get it into actiont
Borax is a sort of driver for soap.
Borax takes soap by the scrun of the
neck and says Come on here and get
busy"
You will never know the value OF soap
until you see it working in connection
with borax.
But soap is pretty stubborn and II only
works right when there is one-part
borax and three-parts soap. 1t is impos-
sibie to get this quantity OF borax into
bar soap. 1t is only possible in borax
soap chips.
When you use 20 Mule Team Borax
Soap Chips" this week for the family
wash and various other cleaning about
the house. you may be little vexed to
think of ever having tried to get along
without 1t!
