No hard rubbing-no boiling

You do away with rubbing except for very
badly soiled places. such as collars, wrist
bands and hens. And these you need only
rub lightly between your hands. Rinse is so
puye and so high in cleansing valne simply sOoks
the dirt ont of the clothes. Then, when you
rinse, the dirt floats right out.
You do away with boiling entirely unless
YOU wish to boil your clothes, occasionally, to
sterilize them. You do away with half the

rubbing and boiling that wear out the fabrics

The time and temperament that

MADE INNOVATION IN ART
Fra Anoeiieo the First Painter to De-
plet Angels as Being Of the
Gcntler Sex.

Fra Angelica was the first painter
who ventured to depict angels Of the
gentler sex.
This was deemed bold and un
scientific innovation by churchmen of
his time, innsmuch us 1t had always
been understood that there was no
such thing MS a female angel. AS n
matter of fact. there Is no authority for
lady angels except In art.
Modern pictured angels. however,
nre nearly all of the female persua-
sion; and 1t will be noted that usually
they are blondes. But the archnngels
are invariably represented as Of male
SEX.
Among all the celestial hosts, only
the seven archRngels are known as
individuals and by name. These. as
named In the Bible. are Michael, Ga
brIel, Raphael, Urlel, Jophiel, Chm
muel and Zadkiel.
Michael Is the captain general and
leader of the heavenly armies. It was
he who conquered Satan and drove
him, with his rebellious leglons, out of
Heaven. He is understood to have
been In command of the band Of angels
who, In obedience to divine orders,
performed the work Of constructing
the universe. In painting he Is repre-
sented with pair of scales. which he
will use on the day Of judgment to
weigh the souls of the dead.
Gabriel. the angel Of the annuncl-
alton, has In his charge the celestial
treasury. Raphael is chief Of the
guardian angels, whose business It is
to look out for the welfare Of man
kind. Uriel is the regent Of the SUM-.
Jophiel is caretaker Of the tree of
knowledge; and 1t was he who drove
Adam and Eve out of Eden. Chamuel
wns the angel who wrestled with jacob
and II was Zadkiel who stayed The
hand Of Abraham when about to sacri
ffce his son Isaac.
