BROMLEY'S PATENT EMPIRE SOAP, which heretofore has been difficult to be obtained, as very few of the grocers will keep it. To use their own words, by way of explanation, they state,—" Were we to buy it, it would reduce our sales fully one third, as two pounds of the Empire Soap will go as far as three pounds of any other soap ; we should also lose our profit on soda and washing powders, as neither of these articles are required when the Empire Soap is used, in either the hardest water or in sea water." What the grocers are displeased at in this soap is its strongest recommendation to the notice of the large consumers, private families, hotel keepers, laundresses, kc. It only requires to be used with a light hand. And besides the above advantage it saves half the usual labour, consequently less friction and wear in the clothes, and will not injure the colours in the most delicate prints ; and is equally valuable for every other domestic purpose, even for toilet use, as it isa pure soap, free from rosin and other useless ingredients, which not only add unnecessary weight to the soap but detract from its cleansing properties. To be had whoh sale at the Works, No. 22, Cherry-lane, and from the following dealers :—Mr. Edward Davies, chandler, No. 84, London-road ; Mr. John Dixon, grocer, No. 48, Pembroke place ; Mr. William Davies, grocer, 58, Mill-street ; Mr. David Drew, ship-store merchant, 40, Waterloo-road ; Messrs.
