EXAMINE BEFORE YOU BUY. When in a grocer's store you stand And oft the sham is not remote And calces of Ivory Soap demand, From fairest face or whitest coat. Be careful not to be misled Examine well with careful eye And imitations take instead, The cake until the name you spy, For dealers oft will praises sing And always thus be well assured Of that which may more profit bring. That Ivory Soap you have procured ; Let not your senses clouded be And should a lingering doubt remain, Because a snowy cake you see, 'Twill vanish like the darkest stain, For villainy is not confined When in the tub on washing day To darkest colors, bear in mind, That cake of soap is brought in play. A WORD OF WARNING. There are many white soaps, each represented to be "just as good as the 'Ivory';" they ARE NOT, but like all counterfeits, lack the peculiar and remarkable qualities of the genuine. Ask for "Ivory" Soap and insist upon gettmg it. Copyright 1886. by Procter & Gamble.
