Show Nothing is more difficult than to choose a good husband - unless it be to choose a good wife. A woman whose ruling passion is not vanity is so superior to any man of equal capacity. - Lavater The man who hunts for a gas leak with a light found it at No. 61 White street, New York. He is doing as well as could be expected at the hospital. A gentleman from Washington was robbed of ten thousand dollars on a train over the Pennsylvania Railroad. The Pacific Bank. A BRILLIANT SHOWING - The Pacific Bank, located on the corner of Pine and Sansome streets, San Francisco, has entered upon the eighteen year of its existence. Among all the banks of the city there is none to day with a better record or more brilliant prospects. With a million of paid-up capital land a surplus of $130,000, it naturally commends itself to the public as one of the safest possible depositories of money. At the same time its continuance under the sound and conservative management which has built it up, and entrenched??? it in well earned public confidence, is of more business value than any amount of capital. Having agencies and correspondents in all of the principal cities not only of this continent, but throughout Europe, it is prepared to issue Letters of Credit at all times. It offers unsurpassed facilities for dealing in exchange, and is, in short a complete, reliable bank. Marked and steady so have been its past success and growth, its managers are to be congratulated on the promising auspices under which they enter upon their new year. - Daily Exchange, S. F. [San Francisco], Feb. [February] 11, 1881 From the Hub There is perhaps no tonic offered to the people that possesses as much real intrinsic value as the Hope Bitters. Just at this season of the year, when the stomach needs an appetizer, or the blood needs purifying, the cheapest and best remedy is Hop Bitters. An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure, don't wait until you are prostrated by a disease that may take months for you to recover in. - Boston Globe. Reliable Testimony. Where testimonials give the residence of the parties it is an easy matter for any person to verify them. Thousands of people from all parts of the Pacific Coast can and have expressed the opinion that there is no other article in the world equal to PHOSPHATE SOAP for common toilet use. A great many people have tested this soap for skin diseases. Among others we give the following from parties who have thoroughly tested PHOSPHATE SOAP: Oakland, Cal. [California], April 5, 1880. STANDARD SOAP COMPANY-Gents: Some two or three months ago, I had a boy about two years old that had suffered for a year with a severe eruption on the head and face, caused by teething. The child was in such misery that it would often be awakened out of sleep by the severe itching. He would then scratch his head and face until the blood ran from the scabs. We tried everything we could find, but nothing seemed to give any permanent relief until we tried PHOSPHATE SOAP. Before we had used one cake, the child's head and face were entirely healed, and there has been no appearance of the disease since. MICHAEL KANE No. 1068 Kirkham St. Fort Verde, Arizona, Dec. [December] 12, 1879. STANDARD SOAP COMPANY-Gents: Having received your box of Phosphate Soap, and having used only one cake of Soap out of the three, I am happy to say that it has completely cured my sore eyelids which was caused by the alkali dust in Idaho Territory, in 1877, and have been sore ever since until I used PHOSPHATE SOAP. CORPORAL DENNIS BURKE, Twelfth Infantry. San Francisco, November 27, 1879. STANDARD SOAP COMPANY-Gents: After a number of trials of soaps, I have learned that the Phosphate is certainly the very best for shaving. I thank you for its introduction. JAMES P. ARTHUR.

[illustration of a tin of "Phosphate Soap" with words "trade mark" written across a buckled belt] No salve or ointment can heal a wound or sore of any kind. Every educated physician will tell you that nature alone can do this. Phosphate Soap, by its cleansing, soothing and purifying qualities, gives nature a chance to act freely. If your wife is in the habit of using cosmetics of any kind, advise her to give up the pernicious practice, as the most harmless face powders obstruct the pores of the skin and sooner or later injure the complexion, while Phosphate Soap removes all impurities and assists nature in developing a natural, healthy and beautiful skin. A superb article for the toilet, beneficial to the skin, giving it a soft, velvety appearance, and leaving a soothing, pleasant sensation after use, imparting a healthy, natural and lasting beauty to the complexion. It eradicates the poisonous effects of cosmetics; preventing skin diseases by acting as a constant purifier and disinfectant; if used constantly will cure skin diseases of long standing; is superior to any further article for bathing infants; cleansing and healing for all eruptions on the scalp or face of children; good for the teeth; produces a soft, creamy lather, nicely adapted to shaving or shampooing, removes dandruff, and gives health to the scalp without injuring the hair. The genuine merits of Phosphate Soap and persistent advertising will force every druggist, groceryman and general dealer to order it by the gross sooner or later. Ask for it in every store. The retail price is 25 cents per cake. We wish to sell it only at wholesale, but in case you cannot find it we will send a nice box of three cakes by mail, postage paid, on receipt of 85 cents in stamps. STANDARD SOAP CO.
