Note
Is better than any soap; handier, finer, more effective, more of it, more for the money, and in the form of a powder, for your convenience. Takes, as it were, the fabric in one hand, the dirt in the other, and lays them apart—comparatively speaking, washing with little work.
As it saves the worst of the work, so it saves the worst of the wear. It isn’t the use of clothes that makes them old before their time; it is rubbing and straining, getting the dirt out by main strength.
