Soaps, Directions, &c.
Directions for Using
REDS IRISH BLEACHING SOAP.
V arranted not 10 Injure the Finest Fabric,
and has u tenttuncy To Sotten Huads.

NUT onc-half pound of Soap into small
~ shavings, and dissolve in five gallons
OF hot water, and then put in as many pie
ces OF clothes as the solution will cover let
them soak D or 10 minutes; then little
hand rubbing will make them rs clean rs
hours of hard machine rubbing would do
with ordinary soap
When clothes are not much soiled, no
rubbi is required
Wiring them out of the solution, then
treat them the same as though they had
been washed in the ordinary way.
When one lot of clothes is removed from
the solution, replace with another.
eB This Soap is warranted perfectly free
from anything injurious, and careful ana
lysis has proved that its ingredients cannot
miure the finest fabrics. 1t is also an ex-
celent Shaving Soap. For cleaning Paint,
use a sponge or cloth saturated with the
solution; 1t will leave the paint bright and
uninjured; the repeated use of it on painted
wood tends to make Its glossy.
For removing Paint, Grease Spots, &C.,
from Clothing, dip one end of the Soap in
hot water and rub on the sOiled spots; then
with linen towel and warm water, wash
the Soap Oft; if the spots are of long stand
ing, repeat the operation.
This Soap being very dry and pure does
not dissolve easily, but must be Thoroughly
Boiled in w;,ter TO make it dissolve.
Mouselin dc LANES, Cashmeres, Woolens,
Flannels, &c, are rendered soft and
smooth, but should not be boiled.
All fast colors are made bright and clear
with this soap. Dresses can be washed
without ripping.
P. S.-To get the full benefit of this
Soap it should always he dissolved in boil
ing water, and the solution used while
warm. Manufactured only by

fore Justice Gender, by Deputy Sher-
1T Oifut, Oh warrant issued a few
days ago, charging them with NAL
practice in procuring an abortion in
September last, on the person of Mrs
Jane Williams, of Frostburg. In the
course Of Mrs. Williams testimony it
appeared that the physicians had oper-
ated in similar manner on Mrs
Emma Bray, of Hoffman Hollow, sis
ter of Mrs Williams, in June last,
and another case was docketed against
them. They waived examination, and
We're held in the sum of 81 900 each,
in each case, making $4,000 in all
This amount Of bail they were unable
to furnish, so they We're committed to
Jail where they now lie.
The details Of the case so far as ellie
cited in the preliminary examination
OF Mrs. Williams, are terrible in the
extreme, ami made more so by the
fact that physicians who have been
treating Mrs. Williams since Septem-
bnr ,l,d,l,,n that g cbo loo, ,,ot J;o
she will be hopeless invalid for life.
Her hus band was ignorant of the
whole matter. until his wife became

The accused, who are, or claim to
be brothers, came to Frostburg about
a year ago, and after practicing there
for some months removed to Barton.

that they have never done anything

COUNTY AFFAIRs.-The board of
county commissioners were in session
Oil Tuesday and Wednesday.
The object of the meetings was to
arrange for the replacing Of the bro
ken span of the bridge between Wes-
ternport and Piedmont, washed away
in the food some weeks since. In
view of the present low price of iron
it was decided to construct the span
of that material, and the contract for
building it was awarded to the King
bridge company, of Cleveland, Ohio,
the builders Of the Virginia and Wills
creek bridges at this city. This firm
was the lowest bidder, their bid being
$50 per lineal foot, and as the span
Is one hundred and tifty-fve feet long,
the price to be paid is So, 100, one-half
of which will be paid by the authori-
ties Of Mineral county, West Virginia.
