GROUND SOAPSTONK —It is only re
cently that ground soapstone has been
used as an adulterant of articles of daily
food, such as butter, flour, and goods
of like character. Firms in Canada,
Cincinnati and other places are produc
ing a powdered soapetone, which, it is
said, is being quite extensively used by
farmers and butter merchant for adul
ter&tiog purposes. It is extremely fi Qe.
and has neither color nor taste, while
the cost is bat about $25 per ton,
enabling manufacturers to add seven
or eight pounds to a tub of butter, thus
giving them an additional profit of
upward of 14 per oent. It is stated
that the powder is being secretly shipp
ed to dairymen and farmers, and that
the adulteration is now going on in
churning rooms.
The A*e of Miracles,
is past, and Dr. Pierce's Golden Medi
cal Discovery will not raise the dead,
will not cure you if your lnngs are
half wasted by consumption, or your
system sinking under canceroos disease.
It is, however, unsurpassed both as a
pectoral and alterative, and will cure
obstinate and severe disease of fbe
throat and lungs, coughs, and bronchia
affections. By virtue of its wonderful
alterative properties it cleanses and
enriches the blood, thus curing pimij*
blotches, and erupt'ons, and
even great eating ulcers to heal. » Jia

The custom of washing sheep before

wasted could be saved to the extent

My attention was called to FRANK SIDDALI.S
BOAP from an advertisement In my own paper,
and Its use in mv house Tor nearly a year, according
to the directions, has proved that Its remarkable
properties have not been overstated. For remov

and shaving it U the best Soap I have ever seen.

I'irst, pat the white clothes in a tub of water, only made warm enough to be comfortable

r-r it, roll it up and put it back into the same tub, and BO on with each piece until all
,c tlie Soap rubbed on them. Then go away and let them soak at Ic&fit- twenty minutes,
thout touching them, when the dirt will all be loosened, and a very little rubbing on
,3 wash-board, out of that one suds, will make them perfectly clean, being particular to
rn 3Kch piece while washing so as to get at the seams. Then wash on the

It is important not to heat the wash-water in a tin, brass or copper kettle. A tc>-
heat enough water for a large wash with this Soap.

gloss and freshness of youth, faded or gray,
light, anil red hair, to a rich brown, < r dec;
black, as may he desired. 13y its use thii
hair is thickened, and baldness oftei
though not always cured. It checks fallim
of the hair immediately, and causes a ncv
growth in all cases where the glands a;
not decayed; while to brasliy, weal;, o
otherwise diseased hair, it Imparts vitali'
and strength, and renders it pliable.
The VIGOR cleanses the scalp, cures an
prevents the formation of dandruff; and
by its cooling, stimulating, and soothin;
properties, it heals most if not all of tlx
humors and diseases peculiar to tin scalp,
keeping it cool, clean, and soft, under
which conditions diseases of the scalp and
hair are impossible.
As a Dressing for Ladies' Kair
The VIGOR is incomparable. It is color
less, contains neither oil nor dye, and v. il!
not soil white cambric. It imparts an
agreeable and lasting perfume, and as an
article for the toilet it is economical and
unsurpassed in its excellence.
