"CATCHING COLD." There <are hundreds of ullegpd cures for a cold, and just two reliable means of prevention: first, the romuionsense avoidance of chill, and, second, the wholesale destruction of the disease genius which spread the malady. It is on the latter as U'Xi tiiat these Health words are published, because for every man who "catches cold" there are a hundred cases in which the infecting germ of cold catches the man. This is M'lf evident from the /act that whilst it is generally impossible to trace the actual cause of a cold, yet once, a person has contracted the malady about him promptly follow suit The obvious conclusion is that colds, which arc to often the foundation of chronic disease, are communicated by a disease serin. This wp call '"Infection," and a«s Hie life of a germ is infection, the real remedy is to DESTROY THE GERM. These Disease Germs lodge in all conceivable places. It follow?, therefore, that we must reach those places— not some of them, but all—destroy the genu. To do this a cleanser and disinfectant must be so .scientifically combined thai, in ordinary household use it will not only remove dirt but also kill infection, particularly the infection of our ancient enemy— "the cold. : " The most reliable agent of tnis character is LIFEBUOY SOAP. Tens of thousands know this, for Lifebuoy Koyal Disinfectant Soap has. a. brilliant record in fighting infection: but though they use Lifebuoy Soap with splendid results in the kitchen and .-ick room, though they scour tables and floors, and flush >ink> and drains with Lifebuoy Soap solution, they have not yet learnt to extend these precautions to the laundry. It is in THE LAUNDRY ESPECIALLY that Lifebuoy Snap i> particularly lifted to do some of its best work, by protei-tinfj; the family against disease germ.-. In fact, in a well-managed laundry every family should, per medium of the weekly wash, got A WEEKLY BILL OP HEALTH. Through the laundry pass the clothes we wear, the bed linen in which we slpep, the tablecloth and servictle. which lie clwe to our food, the handkerchief for our lips, and the towels for our bodies. What more neeawary, therefore, than to make them chemically clean, germ free and genu proof, by using in the laundry plenty of LIFEBUOY SOAP? That this disinfecting , can be done has been proved by two eminent Scientists Mr. F. H. Molesworth. F.C.S.. of Sydney, and Dr. Karl Enoch, of Hamburg, who have destroyed the. germs of Consumption and Cholera in fifteen minutes by immersing them in solutions of Lifebuoy Soap of 10 and •"> per cent, respectively. The Cold germ is less stubborn, and would succumb much more easily. From this it is clear that the laundry offers the best chance of all to SAFEGUARD FAMILY HEALTH. By all means attack the other strongholds of Disease Germs: use Lifebuoy Soap wherever dirt can lodge, or germs rind refuge—bedroom utensils, sanitary out-buildings, drains, sinks, floors and walls—MMur and flush them wiili Lifebuoy r-roap. but DO NOT FORGET THE LAUNDRY. Let all the clothes aud linen be washed in Lifebuoy Soap and. there will be loss "Catching Cold,"' because when one of the family has a. cold, the germs which swarm in the patient's clothing and on every fabric he touches, will, wir.lt any other -tiav microbes, get ehorf. .-hit't and quick despatch. Yet, with aJi this deadlines!) to germ?. Lifebuoy Soap will not injure the most delicate fabric, will not chap the hands or discolour the nail*, but will ou the other hand, make laundry work a pleasure, and pile the wash basket with snowy, fragrant, germfree napery. Lifebuoy Soap means PERFECT CLEANSING, PERFECT DISINFECTING.
