DOBBlNS' ELECTRIC SOAP

Having obtained the agency Of
this celebrated soap for Abbeville
and vicinity, l append the opin,
ion of some of our best people as
to it's merits. We have been
nsing for the last : months the
Dobbins' Electric soap, made hy

Pa, and find that it washes and
cleans the clothes more rapidly
and more thoroughly and is in
the end cheaper than any other
soap we have ever uaed in our
family. We can heartily recon.
mend it and q single trial will
convince all of the correctness Of
our assertions.
