MONDAY, 5.30 A.M. l oma Reflections on a Boiling Copper. "The copper's boilinf" — thii i« the comBon phrase of early Monday, the housewife'i . mil to the weekly task. Let u» follow it with t question that is not so simple as it sounds : "What is it boiling for?" Most people would inswer, "Why, to boil the diit out of the :lothes, of course." Quite so, but..for health's lake something mote than dirt has to be done iway with in the household washing, namely, :be seeds of infectious disease. Infection may be communicated to a wholt city 'and beyond it) (torn one single patitnt, of which the amaftpox epidemic is a case ia point. It is due to tiny organisms, hardly visible through a microscope but intensely ilive, thrown off in the course of the disease. These float in the air or dust and drift to clothes und house linen as naturally as steel draws to i t magnet; we call them " Germs," ol seeds ol disease, because just as an ordinary seed grows 1:0 a plant, so a disease germ on a human • body breeds disease ; the only protection >;ainst germs is to destroy them. • ■> The question is : Will boiling water and common soap do it ? Not always ; somr disease germs may thrire, or even breed, in both. So we must use a cleanser that will not. only clean clothes and house linen thoroughly, but also kill all disease germs that have lodged in them. Fortunately for as, manufacture and science have combined to meet this want with Lifebuoy Soap. By using Lifebuoy Soap in the laundry the germ! of infectious diseases are caught and killed wholesale, btcamse Lifebuoy Soap is both a perfect laundry cleansei and a strong disinfectant as well, and when the household clothing and linen are washed with it, disease gtrms find destruction instead of a refuge. Our crowded population doubles the risk of inftction, Lifebuoy Soup reduces it ; but Lifebuoy Sup mutt be so used at to covti both cleansing and disinfection ; Lifebuoy Soap for the bath, Lifebuoy Soap for doors and walls, Lifebuoy Soap for kitchen and scullery, and when the coppei boils "on Monday morning, then l«t it be especially and always Lifebuoy So*p for the d*y'« washing. : * ■■<-••■ •*• For Washinq-ippi Your BREAKFAST, DINNER, and TEA SERVICES, KNIVES, FORKS; and SPOONS, can— at a very trifling cost,— be speedily and thoroughly washed with HUDSON'S Soap.
