ER The Sommer Hath. Nothing is more refreshing and invigor- ailing in summer than a daily bath, But to have it effectual soft water and good soup must be used. Ivory Soap is the best for the purpose; it is pure, dissolves quickly, sweetens and purifies the cuticle, gives a bealthful glow, and leaves the skin soft and white. Early morning, or just before rotiring at night, is the most favorable {ime for bathing. Eraza RB. Paggen, « As Represented.
