For economy, durability. easy wash.

Non.shrlnlsing or Injurious to fabrics.
For leaving the hands smooth and
soft.
For washing the most delicate EN-.
broldery without a particle Of injury.
1t Is a well.known fact to practical
laundresses that there Is no economy
In a cheap adulterated soap. Not only
from the fact that 1t has not the lasting
qualities, but also from injury done the
clothing.
by the use Of CAESAR, linens ana 9th.
or fabrics do not rot, they wear out
naturally.
1t has been proved that CAESAR does
80 per cent. more washing than the
average laundry soap will do.
CAESAR has rich, velvet creamy
lather that penetrates and softens the
clothing. consequently 1t makes wash.
Ing easy.
CAESAR will not cause chapped or
rough hands. Why? Because 1t con.
talns no injurious substances of any
kind.
CAESAR retails at 4c a bar. and we
feel confident that with a fair trial
| you will make Caesar a household
soap. Very sincerely yours,
