page_text: I REGINALD LIVESEY of Ember Cottage, East Moulsey in the County of Surrey
Gentleman (a communication to me from abroad by Doctor Duncan of 1 Gorock-
away Street, St Petersburgh in the Empire of Russia) do hereby declare the nature
of this invention to be as follows:-
This invention refers to the manufacture of liquid soap suitable for toilet,
medical and other purposes.
According to my invention I make the soap of oleaginous material, alcohol,
glycerine and potash. For example to one hundred parts I take as approximate
proportions.
Fifty parts of cocoa oil or oleine or other oleaginous material.
Twenty parts of alcohol.
Twenty parts of glycerine.
Ten of potash K, Œ. D, F in F (Kalium Hydric, Depur, Fusum in Frust).
According to the purposes for which the liquid soap is to be used I accordingly
introduce into it the ingredients that may be required for scenting, colouring or for
sanitary, medical or other purposes.
As a disinfectant soap I introduce for example carbolic acid in the proportion
required whether five, ten or fifty per cent.
Other disinfectants can be introduced
if desired and in the proportion required.
In its natural state when made with cocoa oil this soap without the addition of
any scent smells strongly of pine-apple and in this state it may be for many
purposes used as a toilet soap without the addition of any other ingredient.
Sometimes the alcohol or glycerine may be omitted.

page_text: Surrey, Gentleman do hereby declare the nature of this invention (a communi-
cation to me from abroad by Doctor Duncan of 1 Gorockaway Street, St Peters-
burgh in the Empire of Russia) and in what manner the same is to be performed
to be particularly described and ascertained in and by the following statement:-
This invention refers to the manufacture of liquid soap suitable for toilet,
medical and other purposes.
According to my invention I make the soap of oleaginous material, alcohol,
glycerine and potash. For example, to one hundred parts I take as approximate
proportions.
Fifty parts of cocoa oil or oleine or other oleaginous material.
Twenty parts of alcohol.
Twenty parts of glycerine.
Ten of potash K HDF in F (Kalium Hydric Depur Fusum in Frust).
According to the purposes for which the liquid soap is to be used I accordingly
introduce into it the ingredients that may be required for scenting, colouring, or
for sanitary, medical or other purposes.
As a disinfectant soap I introduce for example carbolic acid in the proportion
required, whether five, ten or fifty per cent. Other disinfectants can be introduced
if desired and in the proportion required.
In its natural state when the oleaginous material is cocoa oil, this soap, without
the addition of any scent, smells strongly of pineapple, and in this state it may be
for many purposes used as a toilet soap without the addition of any other
ingredient or scent.
Sometimes the alcohol or glycerine may be omitted.
The proportions of all the ingredients may be varied according to requirements,
for example I reduce the alcohol in many cases and the glycerine may also be
reduced as desired, and the proportion of the potash is also increased or diminished
according to requirements.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of my said
invention and in what manner the same is to be performed I declare that what
I claim is:
In liquid soap the employment of oleaginous material, alcohol, glycerine and
potash or alcohol or glycerine alone in combination with oleaginous material and
potash substantially as and for the purposes set forth.
