Gentlemen: Although a stranger to you, and my testimonial entirely unnecessary, as it certainly is unsolicited, yet I take great pleasure in testifying to the excellence of your "Ivory" Soap and thanking you for putting it on the market at so low a price. It has entirely supplanted the use of Castile and other fine soaps in my household for several years past, being in no way inferior, and from fifty to seventy-five per cent. more economical. A good test I find for the purity of soap is to try it with a brush for cleansing the teeth and the taste of the "Ivory" Soap so used is perfectly sweet and clean. Very respectfully yours, W. S. Baker, M.D.
