A. Sixth and Market streets. and box

ing from a chimney of the Smith

WHAT KIND OF SOAP
FOR A WASHING
MACHINE

I always think of soap as the
partner of a washer. Some soaps
are lazy partners, others do their
full share of the work.
Soaps that do not dissolve
completely, that give light,
frothy suds without substance,
make a washing machine do
more than its share of the
work
Rinse, the new kind Of soap,
helps the washer do its best work.
Every grain is so pure and per-
fectly balanced that it loosens all
the dirt. 1t prepares the way for
the efficient operation of the
machine. When you use Rinse
you don't have TO rub at all.
Whether they have a washing
machine or not, women the
country over are using Rinse in
place of bar soap at every step
of the family wash
