GOOD HOUSEWIVES.
Look about your home as you read this advertise- ment.
Its looks clean, undoubtedly. But don't get the idea that you can judge simply by the appearance of things.
The surface may be clean, but still there may be a scum of soap left from the wash water; also soap sticking in cracks and crevices ready to gather dirt; while sinks and toilets and drains may have deposits which soap cannot thoroughly remove.
And wherever there is dirt, germs can breed and flies and vermin will come.
