Show 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 6, 1880. Standard Soap Company - Gents (Gentlemen) Some two or three months ago, I had a boy about two years old that had suffered for a year with a severe skin 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. (Number) 1008 Kirkham St. (Street). Fort Verde, Arizona, Dec. (December) 12, 1879. Standard Soap Company - Gents (Gentlemen). Having received your box of Phosphate Soap, and having used only one cake of Soap out of 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 (Gentlemen). 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. False Reasoning. Suppose a machine should fail to perform its work, and the owner, instead of trying to ascertain the cause of failure and remedy it, should conclude to run right along, and argue that as the machine had heretofore come around all right it would soon be so again. If a general and permanent breakdown ensued could anybody be blamed but himself. Now, precisely this way do people act and argue when the "human machine" is out of order. When the liver is "torpid" and bowels constipated every one knows that Dr. (Doctor) Pierce's Pleasant Purgative Pellets afford prompt and permanent relief. Yet some guess the "machine" will come around all right, and do nothing. Could any system of false reasoning be more pernicious? Suppose the blood be out of order and there be pimples, ulcers, or running sores with scrofulous tumors, swellings and general debility, and those thus affected should refuse to use Dr. (Doctor) Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery, guessing that the blood would purify itself, could anybody be blamed but themselves if a general and permanent breakdown of health ensued. No remedy yet known equals the Discovery in curing all scrofulous, throat bronchial and lung disease. Sold by druggists. "The Californian." The first volume of this Magazine has been bound, making a handsome volume of 580 pages. The Californian does credit to the Pacific Coast. It is not conducted on a narrow basis, to facet the ideas of any particular class of people. There is variety enough to make this Magazine a welcome visitor to every intelligent family. It contains essays, sketches, travels, descriptive articles, stories, poetry, editorials, art and science notes, and other matter which make up a fascinating variety. These articles are from the pens of our most able writers. The subscription is $8.00 a year or 25 cents per number. The publication office of The Californian is at 202 Sansone Street, San Francisco. Nerve Power. Few people suffer so much nervous exhaustion as newspaper editors. The wear and tear of getting out a good paper tells fearfully, and readers seldom know how much vital force a single item may have cost the one who wrote it. Editors have often been driven to drink in order to stimulate their exhausted fears but of late are using Warner's Safe Nervine instead. This valuable preparation acts as a soothing powder, quieting the nerves and producing sleep with all the refreshment it brings. The Robertson Process for working rebellious ore is remarkable for its simplicity and cheapness. No other method is known which so completely reduces rebellious gold and silver ores to the same conditions as free milling ore. Parties who have the machinery for pulverizing and amalgamating can erect a suitable furnace for using the Robertson Process at a cost of from $1,000 to $1,500, according to capacity required.

(Oklahoma) City girl, whose beau is a clerk in a dry goods store, told a friend she had got a new calico wrapper. "I Don't Want That Stuff," Is what a lady of Boston said to her husband when he brought home some medicine to cure her of sick headache and neuralgia which had made her miserable for fourteen years. At the first attack thereafter, it was administered to her with such good results that she continued its use until cured, and became so enthusiastic in its praise that she induced twenty-two of the best families in her circle to adopt it as their regular family medicine. That "stuff" is Hop Bitters. Schoenholz Brothers & Co. (Company). 110 and 112 Sixth St. (Street), corner Mission, S.F.

Others seek relief by the use of various patent medicines, which, if they do not aggravate the disease at least do not lessen it. Even those who secure the advice of physicians often fail to get relief, owing to the very complicated and delicate nature of the organs affected. The Oregon Kidney Tea is a strictly vegetable production, and will not injure the smallest child, nor the most delicate woman, but will cure Pain in the Back and Kidneys, non retention of Urine, Diabetes, Inflammation of the Bladder or Kidneys, Brick Dust Deposit in Urine, Leukorrhea, Painful or Suppressed Menstruation, and all complaints arising from a diseased or debilitated state of the kidneys or urinary organs of either sex.

Good Land and Sure Crops. There has been steady and tolerably rapid advancement made in the growth of a majority of the towns in Colusa, Butte, Tehama and Shasta counties. Especially is this so in the agricultural districts where the land produces at least fair crops in all seasons - wet or dry - as does the land on the Reading Ranch. Those looking for homes in California where diversified farming will pay every year; where wood and water are plenty and easy to be obtained, and other desirable advantages are to be had, should address the proprietor of the Reading Ranch. Some 14,000 out of 26,000 acres of the grant remain for sale at comparatively low rates, in quantities to suit purchasers, on easy terms. Prices range from $5 to $30 per acre. The tract is between two and three miles wide, with the Northern Division of the C. P. R. R. passing centrally through its entire length. Send postage stamp for map and further information, to Edward Frisbie, the proprietor of Reading Ranch, Anderson, Shasta County, Cal. (California). Phosphate Soap (Illustration) The Best soap for toilet use ever manufactured. Best because it contains all the excellencies of the most expensive foreign or American soaps without their defects. Best because it combines strength with delicacy in such a way that its strong detersive qualities do not injure the skin. Best because it is the result of years of study and experiment in the soap manufacturing business, assisted by modern chemical discoveries. Best because it contains ingredients beneficial to the skin, which unite chemically with the soap in such a manner as to increase its saponaceous qualities. Every chemist familiar with soap manufacture knows that some ingredients which are in themselves beneficial to the skin cannot be saponified; some are partially neutralized, while others injure the quality of the soap. There are soaps in the market which are to some extent beneficial to the skin, but they are inferior articles for toilet use. Phosphate Soap is the Only article offered to the public which combines all the best elements of toilet soap with medical ingredients beneficial to the 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 other 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. 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. It is an old proverb that an ounce of preventive is better than a pound of cure. Twenty-five cents invested in a cake of Phosphate Soap will save hundreds of dollars in doctors' bills. It acts as a constant disinfectant, preventing Salt Rheum and other skin diseases. If your wife will persist in the use of cosmetics buy her a cake of Phosphate Soap and tell her to use it every night before retiring. In that way much of the harm will be avoided, as the skin will thereby be able to retain much of its natural vigor and beauty. 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, on receipt of 85 cents in stamps.
