The water immediately becomes creamy soft, most refreshing and very beneficial to the skin. Try it to -night. You'll be pleased, well pleased. People where the water is unusually hard just revel in for the bath. Especially where babies are con- cerned. These silky -smooth little flakesof thepurest essence of soap exercise a soothing and cleansing effect on the skin that is very stimulating after a trying day.

McLachlan, Principal Recruits Wa:ted for Production Just as surely as:lack of food is strangling Germatly day by clay, so plenty of food is winning the victory for the allies. The French armies, for instance, were never better f eci'than now, for France cannot forget the awful lesson of 1870—the failure of her food supply. To this she attributed the loss of that war. To feed the French soldiers around Verdun, more than 25,- 500,000 pounds of food a week were required. This gives a faint idea of the colossal task of feeding an army. Canada and Britain have a, huge army of fighting heroes on the line every man MuS`r have plenty of food, in spite ofa world shortage. Upon Canada's food production all principally rely.
