Pears’

Soap

People have no idea how crude and cruel soap can be. It takes off dirt So far, so good; but what else does

it do?

It cuts the skin and frets the under-skin; makes red- . ness and roughness and I leads to worse. Not soap,

i but the alkali in it.

j Pears’ Soap has no free, i» | alkali in it It neither redno. ■ dens nor roughens the skin. It responds to water instantly; washes and rinses off in a twinkling; f§ as gentle as strong; the

Just now the currents are such as to nakc movements of swimmers beyond he breakers comparatively eaay, but at uat auch llmca you want to be chary ibout going out because the easier it la to get onttbe hirJcr it la to get io. A atalnmer remarked this le us jrnterday aud we would warn onr aurf bitbing filcnda of the fact. An ^muting Incident on the beach yesterday waa the marahallog of a company of young fellowa, mo.tlv coverml with sea aalt and agn<I ; by Kd- Butcher, with S|ienoe aa color bearer, biarlng aloft what resembled a feminine bit of the company all Arriag arms aa a clubs ami makiug a strand paAn Imfator of Johnson, the whistler, furnished the mnalc (?).

It didn't turn out so, however, because the parly upon it were eminently of non aggressive dispositions, and Included beside. Admiral Reyburn, those venerable ami diatinflolshed gentlemen, Messrs.

As be waa not feeling very well id had absolutely no appetite to apeak of, be waa placed in charge of the lunch baskets and stood by them faithfully, faltblully some of the boya said, for rn they went to investigate, they nd the lunch marly gone, though, Herbert bad not eaten over twenty-two hard-boiled eggs, fifteen aaidwicbea, a basket of peaches, and a few other things. HU appetite bad fallrd him. A 'magnificent" lunch was taken along, but IU magnifioenoe waa gone long be-'' lore the cruise ended. 1'hil.
