There is no economy in buying cheap
soaps. Most all yellow or brown soaps
contains large per cent, of rosin as a

Self Washing soap is strictly pure and
will go much farther than any rosin-fill
ed soap and do better work. It saves a
vast amount of labor and is much easier
on the clothes than so much rubbing.

charged the entire load into bis left arm
just below the shoulder. A farmer boy
who was mending a fence in the neigh
borhood heard the shot and saw him
fall. He ran to his assistance and got
him home, where the doctors examined
his arm and found the bone shattered
to fragments and advised amputation.
Mr. Combs finally consented to the
operation being performed and is now
doing as nicely as could be expected.
If the shot had struck a trifle to the
right it would have killed him.
