HOW TO GET COLORED
CLOTHES CLEANWlTH.
OUT FADING THEM

Colored clothes seem to get
more than their share of dirt.
Play-clothes the children romp
in-colored shirts and overalls
the men work in-house dresses
and kitchen aprons.
Haven't you done three-fourths
of your washboard rubbing on
those things? Rubbed till the
color came out with the dirt!
Don't rub them again. Just
soak them clean in Rinse suds.
A half hour in these big lasting
suds gently loosens all the dirt
without weakening a single
thread. Only the worst spots Of
all need a light rubbing. Try 4
little dry Rinse on these.
Rinse, the new kind Of SOAP,
is replacing bar soap in American
homes.
