SCRAMBLING FOR IT. 

 Here is a good-natured tussle for a cake of Pears' Soap, which only 

 illustrates how necessary it becomes to all persons who have once tried it 

 and discovered its merits. Some who ask for it have to contend for it in a 

 more serious way, and that too in drug stores where all sorts of inferior 

 sraps, represented "as just as good," are urged upon them as substitutes. 

 But there is nothing " just as good," and they can always get Pears' .Soap if 

 they will be as persistent as are these urchins.
