PROVISIONAL SPECIFICATION.
Improvements in the Manufacture of Soap, and in the Utilization of
the Residue of the Substances used therein.
I, ROBERT STONE, of St. Dunstan's Buildings, in the City of London, Engineer,
do hereby declare the nature of my said invention to be as follows:-
The object of my invention is to manufacture a superior kind of soap from
materials not hitherto used for such purpose, and to utilize the residuary materials
for other manufactures.
In carrying out my invention I use a combination of fruits, such as figs, grapes,
currants, raisins, or any other fruits, substances or vegetables of a nutricious or
skin healing nature. These are soaked in 10 per cent. (more or less) of glycerine,
oil of almonds or similar liquids, semi fluids or fluids, whereby the materials are
softened. I then press out the juice and extraneous moisture by suitable presses,
which is afterwards mixed with the soap in manufacturing the same.
cases I soak the substances in hot or cold water, instead of the before mentioned
fluids. Soap made under this process is especially soothing and healing to
the skin.
In some
The residues of the above mentioned substances are baked or otherwise dried,
and ground. The resulting material is ground and used as a substitute for coffee,
and which will be far more nutricious to the human system than ordinary coffee.

COMPLETE SPECIFICATION.
Improvements in the Manufacture of Soap, and in the Utilization of
the Residue of the Substances used therein.
I, ROBERT STONE, of St. Dunstan's Buildings, in the City of London, Engineer,
do hereby declare the nature of my said invention and in what manner the same is
to be performed, to be particularly described and ascertained in and by the following
statement:-
The object of my invention is to manufacture superior kind of soap from
materials not hitherto used for such purpose, and to utilise the residuary materials
for other manufactures.
In carrying out my invention I use a combination of fruits, such as figs, grapes,
currants, raisins, or any other fruits, or carrots, turnips, rhubarb, cabbage or other
vegetables of a nutritious or skin healing nature. These are soaked in 10 per cent.
(more or less) of glycerine, palm oil, or similar liquids, semi fluids, or fluids, whereby
the materials are softened. I then press out the juice and extraneous moisture by
suitable presses, which is afterwards mixed with the soap in manufacturing the
Baine, in the proportion of 28 pounds (more or less) of the fruits or vegetables to
one hundred weight of soap. In some cases I soak the substances in hot or cold
water, instead of the before mentioned fluids. Soap made under this process is
especially soothing and healing to the skin.
The residues of the above mentioned substances are baked or otherwise dried,
and ground. The resulting material is ground and used as a substitute for coffee,
and which will be far more nutritious to the human system than ordinary coffee.
