It was quite as it shouW be, but life in spite of April and a motor-car was, what Mhor called a minister's life, "a' 'dullsome job." _ That year spring came, not reluc- tantly, as it often does in the uplands, ', Ronerously, lavishly, scattering; buds and leaves and flrwers and lambs,' land putting a spirit rather oast down when told that the iiearcai raiway station was seven milM distant.

The reason is that every p.irticle of Sunlight is pure, cleansing soap â€" a little of it does a lot of work. Sunlight, you know, is guaranteed to contain no injurious chemicals or harsh filling materials to make the bar large and hard. These filling mater- ials, of course, are just so much waste as far as cleaning goes. "To any woman who wants to get real cleaning value out of a soap for her money, I decidedly say, 'Use Sunlight,' and keep a good supply on the shelf."
