THE BARBER'S OPINION.

"Some people think 'tis only made
For cleansing goods of heavy grade,
For washing down the walls or stairs,
The bureau, tables and the chairs,
Or keeping hands and faces free
From chaps and pimples sad to see.
But folks do well to change their mind;
'Tis not to things like these confined,
And not alone the kitchen-maid
And laundress prize its friendly aid;
I find it just the nicest thing
For toilet use and barbering.
The slightest touches will suffice
To make a foamy lather rise,
That holds the beard till smoothly laid,
However dull may be the blade.
In short, the tale is ever new
That tells what Ivory Soap will do."

If your grocer does not keep the Ivory Soap, send six two-cent stamps, to pay the postage, to Procter & Gamble, Cincinnati, and they will send you free a large cake of Ivory Soap.
