DOBBINS' ELECTRIC SOAF

Having obtained the agency o.
this celebrated soap for Abbevill,
and vicinity, l append the opin-
ion Of some of our best people as
to its merits. We have been
using for the last months the
Dobbins' Electric soap, made by
l. l.. Cragin & Co Philadelphia.
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 used in our
family. We can heartily recon.
mend it and a single trial will
convince all of the correctness of
our assertions.
VIM. MouroN.

I desire all my friends and Gus
toners to give this splendid soap
one trial so they may know just
how good the best soap in the
U. S. is. Give it a trial and |
am sure you will use no other.
