II will be found upon Inquiry OF represen-
tative store-keepers in city and town, that
ladies no longer depend on foreign m akers for
their Perlumery and Toilet Articles.
To Messrs COLGATE & Co, the credit is
largely due for this marked departure from
the old preference.
Their Cashmere Bouquet Soap and Violet
Toilet Water, is universally esteemed by the
tasteful and refined, as the most delicate and
echerche of perfumes.
