[illustration of a tin of Phosphate Soap with words "trade mark" written across a buckled belt] Phosphate Trade Mark Soap. Ladies who have injured the skin by the constant use of cosmetics may do much to restore their faces to that beauty which nature alone can give by constantly using Phosphate Soap. Thousands of articles are palmed off on the public which have no genuine merit, but Phosphate Soap is the result of modern discoveries of celebrated chemists. If you wish to make your hands soft buy a cake of Phosphate Soap, and when that is gone you will buy a dozen and recommend your friends to do the same. Phosphate Soap costs no more than other good toilet soaps, while its medicinal qualities make it worth ten times its price to every man, woman and child. Sensible girls avoid cosmetics but use Phosphate Soap for the toilet because it is fragrant, pure and pleasant. <br><br> Testimonials: San Jose, September 24, 1879, To the Standard Soap Co - Gentlemen: It affords me pleasure to say to the public that I have used and prescribed your Phosphate Soap as a remedy in various forms of cutaneous diseases with the happiest results. I am of the opinion that it is the mildest and most perfect detergent that can be used, either for cleansing the skin and leaving it soft and healthy, or for removing the fetor and corroding influences of sores and ulcerations. I should be sorry to be without it in shaving my face or making my toilet, to say nothing of my good opinion of its remedial qualities. A. J. Spencer, M.D. <br><br> San Francisco Aug. 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, Prurius, 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. <br><br> To the Standard Soap Company. San Francisco, July 19, 1879. 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 Capp street. San Francisco, July 19, 1879. <br><br> Standard Soap Co. - Gents.: I have tried your Phosphate Soap, and have no hesitation in saying that it is the best toilet soap I ever used. My wife has used it and is of the same opinion. I have paid as high as fifty cents per cake for an article in every respect inferior to what you sell for twenty-five cents. Henry H. Lynch, 516 Haight Street. <br><br> We have use Phosphate Soap in our practice, for cleaning indolent ulcers, and also skin diseases, pimples and eruptions of the face, so often seen in the young of both sexes, and can heartily recommend it to the public as the most remedial agent of the kind that we have used.-S. F. Medico-Literary Journal. Oakland, Cal., Aug. 1, 1879. <br><br> Standard Soap Co.-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. B. Johnston, 1016 Kirkham street. <br><br> 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.
