'DOBBIN'S' ELECTRIC SOAP.--iptaving ob-
tained the Agency of this celebrated soap in Sea -

soine of otzr best people as to its merits: "1 have
used Dobbins' Electric Soap, made by J, 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.
"1 used Dobbins' Electric Soap, according to di-
rections, and found the clothes whiter than -when
washed in the old way, and in half the Usual time
-.:Mrs. M. Y. McLean." "1 have tested Dobbins'
Electric Soap, and am highly satisfied with the
result. I believe it capable of doing all the wrap-
per claims for. it, and most confidently recom-
mend it as economizing both time and labor, and
aa doing its work well—Mrs. T. Goldsmith."
"Having given Dobbins' Electric Soap a fair trial,
I think it is all the manufacturers represent it to
be—Mrs. R. T. Coleman." I desire all my friends
