shakspere Saws Truly,

'tlhal Whlch we call u rose
By any other name won d smell as sweet
But the reverse Is equally true, aud the
simple fact that so many wretched per.
fumes are designated Florida Water
does not impart 10 them any of the
sweet fragrance of the genuine Murray
q Lanmau's Florida Water. Beware of
these counterieits, and make sure of OBJ
tanning only the right article which has
won for itself the foremost position as a
toilet requisite.
