TOILET SOAP |
A Perfect Toilet Soap.

First among the requisites of the toilet is a good
article of Soap, but to procure it is not always
the market are made from coarse and deleterious
materials, and their delicate cooring and fragrant
perfume too often conceal the most repulsive I'M
purities. The disclosures recently made public
regarding this subject positively startling and
deserve serious consideration. Scented Soaps are
now known to be extremely Objectionable, especial
ly il applied to the head injuring the hair rrta
ting the scalp, and inducing severe headaches. The
character of the ingredients may be inferred from
the statement of gentlemen who makes the scent
ing of Soaps his business he recently declared that
persOns engaged in this employment were short
lived; from seven TO ten years being the longest
period during which the occupation could be fol-
lowed.
The difficulty of procuring perfectly pure arti-
Gle of toilet soap is at last obviated, however,
thanks to the enterprise and chemical skill of Mr.
B. T. Rabbit, Of New York, the word-renowned
Soap Manufacturer whose immense establishment
10 by lar the greatest OF the kind in the United
states. The renOwn OF Mr.. Babbitt's various pro-
auctions has for many years been widely dissem-
mated, but this latest is the appropriate
crown to the numerous victories already achieved
After years of patient labor and scientific expert
ment, Mr.. Babbitt has succeeded III perfectinG the
composition of the firest toilet soap ever intro
vegetable oils; the manufacturing processes are
entirely and original, and the result is simply
unparalleled in this department of industry
g. 'B. t. 3abbtt's Toilet Soap" is the trade mark
by which this elegant toilet luxury is designated,
and for applications to the delicate akin of infants
children and ladies' it is altogether unequaled in it's
the ingredients being of such absolute purity to
require no aid from chemistry to disguise inferior
materials The most refined taste considers the
absence of artificial perfume the perfection of
sweetness, and this peculiar characteristic of b. i
Rabbits Toilet Soap renders it the most healthful
and agreeable article of the kind ever manufac-
tured
Though specially desirable for the use of ladies
and children this Soap ls equally appropriate for
gentlcmens toilet, and ii makes heavy lather
it is also of the finest soaps for BARRIERS use.

We advise those of our contemporaries
who are disposed to quarrel with the
World for calling the recent savage melee
IN Mississippi an after clap of the Ames
regime TO examine prayerfully the
Mississippi report of 1876. They will
find therein that Chisholm, the man
against whom the mob most furiousIy
ragged, was one of Governor Ames's,
sheriff's and is described in the report as
a mere rufian, bad, desperate fellow,
who admitted to the investigating com.
mittee that in 1874 he had shot brother
Radical from Alabama name billiard. AT
page II of the same volume of the com
mittees report Vol, l. J, in which the tale
of Chisholm's exploits is iset forth, it will
be found that Governor Ames heartily in.
dorsed Chisholm. OF course all this does
not justify mob in trying to kill
Chisholm. But it does tend to show that
Chisholm cannot successfully be ad-
vertised as martyr of law, order and
liberty. The Democrats and honest
people Of Mississippi have been trying for
years to get rid of him and of others like
unto him who constituted the white por.
ton OF Governor Amess hackers and sup
porters. N y. World.

If Governor Stone, Of Mississippi is
correctly reported in our telegrapbic sum
mary Of an interview which he is said to
have had with q correspondent of the
Memphis AU0IGRcbe, he considers himself
to have done all that the laws Of Missis-
sippi allow the executive to do in the mat
ter of bringing the ''Kemper county
rioters" to justice He went iC person
to the scene of the riots, and requested
the circuit judge to call an extra session of
his court at once and put the accused par
ties on their trial, His private opinion
publicly expressed is that 10 jury in the
county can be found to convict the accused.
and it this should prove to be the case il
will clearly be his duty to his state to take
other steps. Meanwhile we shall doubtless
hear great deal in the northern Radical
papers about the lawless and awful cOndi.
