NEW RICHER-SUDS SOAP Speeds washing—saves work—costs less—because of its amazing sudsing power @ Here is a bit of washing wis- dom that overworked women are _learning—suds are the secret of successful washing. It’s important to remember that richer suds mean quicker, whiter washings. Old-type soaps make washing unnecessarily hard. So the makers of Ivory Soa:!) have now perfected a new soap discovery—Oxydol— superior to previous soaps because of its almost magical sudsing power. Women are surprised and de- lighted to find how much work it saves. That is why they are turning to this new soap sensa- tion, everywhere. Oxydol is supercharged (with pure, rich soap) for 50% more suds than other soaps in granulated form—livelier, in- stant suds that last longer than others and therefore do more work. Here are suds that do more work Don’t waste your strength with lazy, shirking suds. Oxy- dol suds are energetic—they do so much more of the hard work for you. Weak, old-type suds, as you have surely z)uml, can’t get things really clean, because they quizfiy fizzle away to thin suds water, which has no cleansing power. This never happenswith Oxydol —its suds always stand up—keep working—until the job is finished. Soaks clothes white You can bid farewell to tiresome rubbing when you start using Oxydol. It soaks clothes white. Its livelier, richer suds lift the dirt right out of even the dirtiest things and float it away. And everything comes out snowy-white and sweeter smell- 0% MorE suns quicker, richer, longer-lasting suds ~—that’s why 0XYDOL saves washday labor, makes dishwashing easier! OXYDOL REG. U. 8. PAT.

Wonderful for dishes— and so kind to hands Grease scoots away from dishes, almost magically, in rich Oxydol suds. Women tell us that they would never do without it for dishes even if it had none of its other wonderful uses.
