Jas. s. Kirk & Co.. of Chicago, have
put upon the market lately, as result
of their half century's experience, their
Dusky Diamond Soap, soap adapted
to all household uses. BY happy but
peculiar combination they are enabled
to use tar in this soap, and there is no
one that needs to be told that tar is
recognized as the greatest of the heal
ing agents. It also is recognized for
its softening qualities, and any one
troubled with hard hands, cracked
hands or sore hands, will become
enthusiastic over tile "Dusky Diamond
Soap" after once using it. Your
grocer keeps it.
