1896 OF HOUSEWIVES
SOAK EVERYDAY
CLOTHES

What does soaking mean to
your Three out Of every four
housewives always loosen the
dirt by letting the clothes soak
before they start washing.
With the ordinary soaps, this
helped a little but there was still
a lot of rubbing to be done.
Rinse, an entirely new kind of
soap, loosens and dissolves every
bit of dirt, without the slightest
injury to the clothes. Soak your
clothes an hour or more in
Rinse and the dirt rinses right
out, all but the most stubborn
places and those need only a
light rubbing.
Rinse is the only soap you
need for the entire regular FAM
lily wash. You don't need any
other soap-nor any washing
powder with Rinse. Women who
are using it say their clothes are
spotless and last longer.
