ONE of the great advantages of newspaper ads is the
fact that no one is FORCED to read them.
NEWSPAPER ADS do not take up your time and
frail your nerves when you are seeking entertainment
and relaxation for which you have paid your money.
NEWSPAPER ADS do not obstruct your view and
mar nature’s landscape when you are motoring in the
country,
NEWSPAPER ADS never offend, are read at times
of leisure and therefore carry the merchant’s messase
at a time when the reader may be favorably impressed.
NEWSPAI ER ADS are the most effective and most
econcmical method for local merchants to reach their
prospective customers.

most tastes, although some like it
stronger. Pour on freshly boiling

from 3 to 5 minutes and pour off.

LUXING OF FINE FABRICS
When washing colored materials
for the first time, test an incon-
spicuous part of the garment or
the end of a belt in a tumbler of
lukewarm water for five minutes.
If the color of the water doesn't
change or if the water shows only
a slight discoloration the fabric
may be safely washed. Turn gar-
ment inside out. (If you draw your
stockings off the leg inside out
they'll be all ready for washing.)
Make a rich Lux suds In luke-
warm to cool water. Test the tem-
perature with the back of your
wrist The warmer the water, the
more likely colors are to run and
fade Wash quickly by gently
squeezing the suds through and
through the material. Don't soak
colored materials or leave them In a
heap while wet. Never rub or
twist. Roll In a Turkish towel,
knead out moisture and then un-
roll immediately. Sometimes it is
helpful to insert a white cloth In
colored garments to prevent streak-
"Khen the garment is unrolled ease
it to shape and press with a barely
warm Iron—smooth fabrics when
slightly damp, crinkled materials
when dry or nearly dry. If neces-
sary stretch again while ironing.

towel, ease foot to shape and stretch
leg gently In length. Dry away
from heat, never over a radiator.

MODERN HOME LAUNDERIrG
—COTTONS AND LINENS
White cotton's and linens wi!
come from your week's wash more
than five shades whiter, and will
last two or three times longer if
you follow these hints.
Sprinkle Rinso into tub. Add
lukewarm water and stir a few
seconds. You will be delighted
with the lively, lasting suds. After
using once or twice, you can easii
estimate how much soap is neede‛
(it's really very, little) for rich last-
ing suds in hard or soft water.
White clothes should be soaked
an hour or two or overnight. Even
if you soak your white clothes ar
little as ten minutes in Rinso suds,
the results wirl be amazing. If
there are badly soiled spots, sprinkle
a little dry Rinso on them, roll the
garment and push it well under
water
The wash water for white cot-
tons and linens should be as hot as
is available, preferably around 140
degrees Two loads of clothes may
often be washed without changing
the water in the machine. When
the suds die down, the cleansing
power of the soap is spent. Either
add more Rinso—or if the suds
have become very dirty, make a
fresh solution.
The more completely the dirty
suds are wrung or spun out of the
clothes, the easier the rinsing is.
and the less hot water is required
Have water for the first rinse as
hot as the wash water. In the
second and third rinses, use as hot
water as convenient.
