Advertisement for Sunlight Soap, 1890. 'An Article Attracting Attention...The Deaf and Dumb Alphabet. SIR CHARLES A. CAMERON, MD. Ex-President of the Royal College of Surgeons, Vice-President of the Institute of Chemistry of Great Britain, Chief Medical Officer of Health for Dublin, S.Sc.C. Cambridge University, Member of the College of Physicians, Professor of Hygiene and Chemistry, Royal College of Surgeons, Ireland. Hon. Mem. Societies of Hygiene, Paris, Bordeaux, and Belgium, Laboratory, Royal College of Surgeons, Stephens Green, W., Dublin, REPORTS, February 15th, 1888: I have carefully analysed specimens of the "Sunlight Soap" submitted to me for that purpose by Messrs. Lever Brothers, Warrington, and the following are the results at which I have arrived: The points in the composition of this Soap that are most valuable are its freedom from free alkali, the large percentage of fatty acids which it contains, and the purity of the materials employed in its preparation. I EMPLOY THE SOAP, and from my actual experience of it can strongly recommend it. (Signed) CHARLES A. CAMERON'. From "Illustrated London News", 1890.
