The Sears catalog in the early 1900s heavily advertised “ammonia, Borax, and laundry and toilet soap.”

I used toilet soap for the first time, not the blue detergent that I had washed with for so many years at home.

Our playmates’ families exchanged their unwanted food for sugar, coal oil, spices, potted meat, Vienna sausage, peanut butter, soda crackers, toilet soap and even laundry soap.

In fact, any pure toilet soap may be used in the same manner.

In addition to those just mentioned, alpaca, corduroy, gloves, ribbons, plush, whalebone, muslin, linen, biscuits, oilcakes, pepper, yeast, toilet soap, sperm candles, mustard, raisins, &c., are sent by sample post.
