this healthful aid to beauty, which is also
specifically adopted to the cure of local dis
eases of the skin and the alienation of pain
arising from rheumatism and gout The
utility of Sulphur Baths is too generally
understood and appreciated to need COM
ment They are extensive, however. Not
so Glenn's Sulphur Soap, which possesses

ed form, is sold at price which renders it
available by all, and obviates the necessity

merely as an article of the toilet, it is far
