at the Bee Office.
AP ROSE is an entirely new product whose
virtues are equally adapted and suitable alike
for the Toilet and Bath.
Ever ready to support and publish any
thing which will conduce to the comfort and
well-being of its patrons, the Bee has accepted a
most liberal offer from J as. S. Kirk & Co., the
well known soap makers of Chicago, to offer
for free distribution on Friday and Saturday,
February 16th and 17th, 10,000 sample cakes
of their famous
JAP ROSE SOAP
that its readers may test for themselves, freely
and without any cost whatever, the merits of this
new soap discovery.
From all the reports of the highest connois-,
seurs, Kirk's Jap Rose seems destined to become
the peer of all other soaps now in general use.
By a special arrangement between the Bee and
Messrs. Kirk & Co., the samples will be on hand and
ready for free distribution at 9 a. m. on Friday morning,
February 16th, and the Bee extends to all its readers a
most cordial invitation to call and receive one free sample
cake of this elegant preparation.
So liberal an offer from such a well-known and respon
sible firm, sanctioned as it is by the most hearty co-operation
of the Bee, is well worth your prompt attention.
Remember, distribution begins at our office 9 a. m.
Friday, February 16th, and ends Saturday evening at 8.
One cake to each person free.
No samples given to children. ' f
