The servants let it remai the bottoms of the wash-tqbs, dish-pans, and scrubbing-pails, ; ■ when the water is poured off, the soap has the consistencv of mur and a new bar must be taken from the box. If the soap would o. float, they would see it, and take it out of the water when they v.x through with it." 5. u The "IVORY SOAP" floats, replied the c;crk. Oil will float and, as the "IVORY SOAP" is made of oils, and is 99xVtr percent, pure, as a matter of course it will float. A WORD OF WARNING.
