GOLD DUST
it actually works for you
and gives true household service
Gold Dust really works. It
always works efficiently, thor
oughly, quickly and surely.
In millions of homes it is to
day doing the hard work which
is really unnecessary for human
hands to do if Gold Dust is used.
Any woman who has
washed dishes with Gold Dust
knows how Gold
Dust truly works
for her.
And if she
doesn't already
know she will be
delighted to "find
out how Gold Dust
cleans everything.
The small
quantity of Gold
Dust required dis
solves at once, in
hot or cold water,
making the ideal
cleaning solution.
1 I rl ' '
Gold Dust dissolves and
removes grease and dirt from
everything. Nothing else works
so well. v
Gold Dust finds and drives
out the dirt in the corners and
crevices that cannot be reached
by fingers or washcloths.
Gold Dust cleans nickel
work, enameled ware, metal,
etc., and does not scratcn or mar
the polished surface.
lhat is why
Gold Dust is the
leading washing
and cleaning pow
der in the world;
that is why you
will find it on sale
everywhere and in
use everywhere.
1
Gold Dust is
indispensable and
inexpensive
