PURITY AND HEALTH. 
CARBOLIC SOAPS 
AND 
Saponaceous Compounds 
OF 
Carbolic and Cresylic Acids. 
Disinfectant, Insect Destroyer, Pre- 
ventive of Fungus, etc, 
"We have watched with great interest the results of vari- 
ous applications of these compounds, knowing that if suc- 
cessful, they would be of incalculable benefit to the commu- 
nity. By tests made under our own supervision, and the re- 
ports of careful observers, we believe it to be established 
that these Cresylic Compounds are 
1st. Complete Disinfectants.— They not only re- 
move all noxious odors from sinks, privies, stables, etc., but 
will destroy all infection in clothing, rooms, etc., washed 
with their solution. Thus, contagion from Small Pox, Typhus 
Fever, Cholera, and other diseases, may be effectually pre- 
vented. They are used in the New York and other Hospitals 
for these purposes. 
3d. Insect Destroyers.— An animal washed with 
Carbolic Soap will be entirely freed from all vermin. It 
will destroy ticks on sheep, fleas on dogs, lice on cattle or 
poultiy, roaches, ants, bed-bugs, etc., in rooms. It repels 
flies from animals, and thus is especially useful in case of 
wounds or sores from any cause. 
3d. Preventive of Fungus Growth.— On this 
point we ask for further experiment. We feel confident this 
soap, properly applied, will prevent smut in wheat, mildew 
on vines, and similar parasitic growth, and trust that exper- 
imenters will furnish the result of their trials. 
4th. Cleaning Sores, etc.— For washing ulcers aud 
other foul sores, and preventing gangrene in wounds, etc., 
Carbolic Soap is, we believe, unequaled. We know also that 
it has been successful wherever used, for footrot in sheep, 
and mange, itch, ring : worm, and other skin diseases. 
Desiring that our readers should be benefited by the ex- 
tended introduction of what wc believe to be so valuable, 
wc have established a general agency for the sale of these 
compounds, keeping them constantly on hand, and are pre- 
pared to fill orders at wholesale or retail, at the following 
prices.
