ParUan Happy Homes, No. 3. Drcrtcn by E. Oakdale. The Old praise Puritan Soap;—its old-fashioned thoroughness and purity brings back the days "when you and I were young." I Alike here and in thousands of other happy homes Puritan Soap is welcomed and loved because it is so gentle in use —so tender to the clothes, so pleasant to the hands that use it. Puritan Soap is gentle because it contains olive oil-sweet olive oil of nature's own giving. It is the olive oil in Puritan Soap which saves the clothes from wash-day wear and tear, and makes them, like itself. sweet, pure and fragrant. That is why so many housewives say quite truly that Puritan Soap saves its cost every week in the clothes it saves.
