SOAP FACTORY WILL
HAVE LARGEST PLANT
Geyssrite Company Takes In New Inter
ssts and Builds Up Tremendous
Business.

A plan has been put In operation that
will give Denver one OF the largest soap
manufacturing establishments In the world.
The business. the Geyserite Manufacturing
Company, with factory at Thirty-hrst and
Blake has been established for hfteeb
years, but owing to the death Of the
founder at a critical stage Of the enterprise.
and the lack of extensive capital 10 further

a few months ago, when Denver capitalists.
headed by Frank A. Joslin, purchased the
interests.
The Infusion Of new energy and capital
Of national Importance. and the product
is now sold throughout the United States.
The business Is believed to be at that
stage where II needs a national campaign
and with that end In view. for the present,
will be sold considerably below par.
Chemists and biologists claim that the
basic product OF Geyserite Soap forms one
OF the most remarkable deposits to be
found anywhere In the world. The prod
uct is a deposit Of lava from an extinct
geyser situated near Orleans, Neb. The
Company owns the entire deposit. Itp
value lies in Its soothing and cleaning
properties and It's total freedom from
caustics. Owing to the nenrness OF the
place Of deposit It can be shipped Into
Denver for less than one-half cent a
Of fV Geyserite Soap Is from this deposit the
pronts Of manufacturing are extremely
large.
Using to make Geyserite soap universally
The company will use the money received
from the sale OF stock In advertising the
business and in increasing the equipment
and plant
stores OF the country, and through ex-
tensive advertising Il II hoped TO make Il
OF national and even universal use.
