NJ RAILWAYS CHINESE MEDICA,
TED SOAP is superior to all imported French
English, OF Berlin soaps. There arc soaps
which are beneficial to the skin, (Radway's s,)
and soaps which are injurious to the complex
ion. Those soaps containing muriatic acid,
bismoth, corrosive sublimate, preparations of
mercury and antimony, scented with strong
essential oils, as most Of the toilet soaps are
are very injurious to the skin, their general
tendency is to irritate the cutclc, close up the
pores, thus causing the bursting forth of hu-
mors on the surface, in the form of pimplcs,
blotches, pustules, ring worm, eresipelas and
other excrescences. To avoid purchasing
those dangerous compositions, ask for RAD
WAYS Chinese Medicated Soap, which is
entirely free from all dcleterious and irritating
ingredients. 1t opens the pores, cleanses the
secretary vessels from all impurities, removes
tan, sunburn, pimples, botches, DC. renders
the skin soft, smooth, pure, clean, sweet and
healthy, and adds beauty to the complexion Of
all who use it, l....F.
