Show A NEW RECEPTACLE FOR FLOWERS is "The Hunting Hat," a hat shaped like a beaver in straw, adorned with streamers of gauze or silk and bunches of roses or smaller flowers. There are also decorated slippers, boats of bronze or oxidized metal, wheelbarrows for table ornaments and Pompadour baskets to be worn at the side, lined with silk or satin and filled with flowers. <br><br> A BUTTERFLY never goes back on its grub. <br><br> THE RECENT SUDDEN RISE in the silk market in Europe continues to engage the attention of the importers and manufacturers of silk goods in New York city and vicinity. Many of them claim that the advance-from seven to ten per cent-was a legitimate one, and not due wholly to a speculative movement. <br><br> A FAMILIAR INSTANCE of color-blindness is that of a man taking a brown silk umbrella and leaving a green gingham in its place. <br><br> THE NEWFOUNDLAND COAST is said to be strewn with wrecks. <br><br> BOTHERING A WAITER. A plainly-dressed, middle-aged man, with an immobile expression of countenance, entered a St. Louis restaurant the other day, and called for dinner. One of the waiters hustled about for a moment, took the stranger's order, and presently presented before him a bowl of bean soup. After carefully inspecting it for a moment, the guest looked up with an astonished air and said: <br><br> "What's this?" <br><br> "Why, it's bean soup," replied the waiter, apparently very much offended. <br><br> "Yes, that may be," replied the guest, seriously, "but what is it now?" <br><br> The waiter looked puzzled for a moment and then snapped out: <br><br> "Why, I tell you, it's bean soup." <br><br> "You said that before, you know," replied the guest, quietly; "I'll admit that it may have been soup, but what is it now?" <br><br> "You're cute, ain't you?" said the waiter, looking as though he wanted to break the neck of the guest. "Well, it's bean soup right now." <br><br> "I'm glad of that, but how long has it been bean soup?" asked the guest as the waiter started for the kitchen, muttering about the people who are too smart to live. THERE DIED AT NEW PHILADELPHIA, O., recently, what was known as "the petrified (ossified) child." Its arms, legs, neck and breast have been as hard as bone for more than a year past, and, though treated by the best physicians in the State, the strange disease would not yield. <br><br> GIVEN UP BY DOCTORS. "Is it possible that Mr. Godfrey is up and at work, and cured by so simple a remedy?" "I assure you it is true that he is entirely cured, and with nothing but Hop Bitters; and only ten days ago his doctors gave him up and said he must die!" "Well-a-day! That is remarkable! I will go this day and get some for my poor George-I know hops are good"-Nation Post. <br><br> RRELIABLE 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. [Street] FORT VERDE, Arizona, Dec. [December] 12, 1870. 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, 1870. 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<br><br> ENTERPRISE IN OREGON.

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. 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 86 cents in stamps. 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. 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. <br><br> Testimonials: SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. [August] 27, 1879? Gentlemen I received a package of your soap (Phosphate Soap) and it gives me great pleasure to testify as to its superior excellence. As a toilet soap I have never seen anything to surpass it. It also possesses superior remedial qualities. I have used it in two cases of obstinate skin disease, one of intolerable itching, Pruritus?, the other an Eczema. In both great relief was obtained. Its emollient properties are remarkable. Respectfully, W.A. DOUGLASS, M.D. 126 O'Farrell St. [Street]. <br><br> To the Standard Soap Company. SAN FRANCISCO, July 13?, 1877?, Standard Soap Co.-Gentlemen: The ladies of my household, four in number, unite with me in pronouncing your PHOSPHATE SOAP the best ever tried for toilet use. It is noticeable that while it readily removes impurities from the skin, it also leaves undisturbed the natural oil so essential to the health. It is not too strong language to say that we are delighted with it. C.M. SAWTELLE, M.D., 120 Clapp? Street.<br><br> OAKLAND, CAL. [California], Aug. [August] 1, 1873. Standard Soap Co. [Company]-Gentlemen: We have been giving your PHOSPHATE SOAP a pretty fair trial, and we like it the best of any soap for toilet use that we have found on this Coast. We have little doubt that it will meet with universal favor. MRS. R.R. JOHNSTON, 1018 Kirkham Street.<br><br> Not only for daily use on the face and hands, but for bathing the entire body, there is nothing equal to PHOSPHATE SOAP. It is a thorough disinfectant and removes offensive odors of every kind. [graphic PHOSPHATE TRADE MARK SOAP] PHOSPHATE SOAP costs no more than other good toilet soaps, while its medicinal qualities make it worth ten times in price to every man, woman and child.
