building lot and that a member of the
society had promised to give a proper-

be raised for the erection of a new
church edifice. The prospects for a
new church in the near future are very
bright.

Soap v
Pretty boxes and odors
are used to sell such
soaps as no one would
touch if he saw them un-
disguised. Beware of a
soap that depends on
something outside of it.
’ Pears’, the finest soap
in the world is scented or
not, as you wish; and the
money is in the merchan-
disc, not in the box.
All sorts of stores sell
it, especially druggists;
' all sorts of people are ‘,
using it.
