Hands and instruments as well as wounds and susceptible tissues are made and kept 4 germ-clean by this modern antiseptic. The properties of ‘ Dettol ’ are remarkable. This ruthless destroyer of germs—three times more efficient than pure carbolic acid—is entirely non-poisonous. This, the chosen weapon of modern surgery, is a clean, clear fluid, pleasant to use and pleasant to smell. It does not even stain linen. When you are.the nurse How easy then for you, and how wise, to learn from the hospitall Have ‘ Dettol ’ always in your honie.
