tained the Agency of this celebrated soap in Sea- sal Mairi-Stre.et, SEAFORTH
forth and Huron County, I append the °Pinion of
some of our best people as to its merits: "1 have
used Dobbins' Electric Soap, made by ,I, L. Cragin
& Co., Philadelphia, Pa., and find it Very good.
.The clothes are beautifully white and the washing
is done in much less time—Mrs. M. P. Hayes."
" I used Dobbins' Electric Soap, according to di-
rections, and found the clothes whiter than when
washed in -the old *ay, and in half the usual time -
—Mrs. IL Y. McLean." "1 have tested Dobbins'
Electric Soap, and am highly satisfied with the
result. I behave it capable of doihg all the wrap-
per claims for it, and Most confidently recom-
mend it as economizing both time and labor, and
as doing its work well—Mrs. T. Goldsmith."
"Having given Dobbins' Electric Soap a fair trial,
I think it is all the manufacturers -epresent it to
be—Mrs. R. T. Colenian." I desir, slimy friends
and customers to give this Soap one trial, so. they
may knew just how good the best soap iii the
U'nited States is THOMAS KIDD, Seaforth,
