CASTLE Soap.

A subscriber wishes to know how cas-
tile soap differs from other soap. The
hard soaps made In. this country are al
most exclusively made from animal fats
In the south OF Europe, where.the olive
grows abauGantly. the poorer kind Of
olive oil Is used Common' soaps are
soda and animal fat !; CASTLE soap is soda
and vegetable oil In making CASTLE
soap great care is taken to avoid an ex
cess OF alkali, (the soda) only just
enough being used to neutralize the oil
On this account the sosp is much milder,
and may be used on wounds and other
surfaces where common soap would ir-
ritate and give pain. The mottled ap.
pearance OF CASTLE soap is due to small
quantity OF solution of copperas sui
phate of iron) which is stirred into il
before 1t hardens; this leaves blush
oxide of iron in the SOAP, which, when
exposed to the air becomes changed to
the red oxide White CASTLE soap js
sold which is the same as the other, with
out the coloring. Though called CASTLE,
It'll. by no means exclusively made in
Spin, the largest share coming from tie
So .th of France. and indeed it is gen.
s.ally known in Europe as Marse 'les
soap American Agriculturia.

that il he repents everybody will forget
that he was dissipated fellow This is
not the case people remember your bad
deeds and forget your good ones. Be
siies, it is no easy thing to break off III
middle life bad habits that have been
formed In youth When a horse con-

retains It through life. He will often
perform we'll till the wheels get into a
deep hole and then he stops and holds

ira. t bad habits. They will sometimes
leave of their had tricks and do better
until they get into tight place, and then
return to their old habit Ot those boys
who contrac, the had habit Of drunken
