Then, if tho weather has been favorable,

also saves cost of i-toiago aud re-sorting,

Our loss from smut, blight, or mag

tho crop as reasonably sure. Rill, there
is an occasional shortage which amounts
to twenty, thirty, and sometimes even
fifty per cent, of tin) crop. It conies

times over a wide extent of country.
This result occurs, perhaps, not more
frequently than once in a decado of
years, and we have not been able to trace
it to any well defined cause.

a miniature lake, with gorgeous tropical

Gentlemen: Although a stranger to y, and my ft-

pleasure in testifying to the excellence of your "Ivory" .
and thanking you for putting it on the market nt so low a pri
It has entirely supplanted the use of Castile and other I
soaps in my household for several years past, being in n?
inferior, and from fifty to seventy-five per cent, more cconon
A good test I .find for the purity of soap is to try it w
brush for cleansing the teeth, and the taste of the "Ivory" :
so used is perfectly sweet and clean.
Very Respectfully Yours, W. S. BAKER, M
A WORD OF WARNING.
Thfra are many while loaps, each represented to be "just is good at tb&'lv
they ARE NOT, but like ill counterfeits, lack the peouliar and remarkable qu.ii!
the genuine. Ask for " Ivory " Soap and insist upon getting It.
