DISEASE IN AMBUSH.

GERMS ROUTED FROM THE LAUNDRY. It is only diseases that are infectious tha% can 1 io; in ambush, ready to launch death amongst the inmates of a home, and when wo search the homo for the readiest place of ambush we find it in the laundry. Thk is a statement of fact easily provable. The laundry claims and cleanses every week the clothes we wear, our bod, .table, k.tchon, and bath linen, handkerchiefs, towels, and curtains. Nothing absorb® and carries tho germs or seeds of disease bo readily as these; to ambush tho ambushing disease germ therefore we must begin in the laundry. . Next as to the method. Mere cleansing ie not enough, for some disease germs may laugh at boiling water, and may even breed in commoner sorts of soapsuds. The only way to deal with the disease germ is to kill it, because its life is its power to infect, and only when dead is it harmless.; so wa must not only begin with the laundry, but must find a laundry coap which is also 4 strong disinfectant. This brings us to the final point. Wo have the place and we know the method; Lifebuoy Soap gives us the means. It may be true -that some disease germs laugh at ordinary soap —but never at “Lifebuoy,’’ for it must be remembered that Lifebuoy Royal Disinfectant Soap has proved its germ-destroying power ail over the world—• in hospitals, hotels, and places of public resort, and in private homes by the hundred thousand. In tho laundry Lifebuoy Soap goto to tho weekly ambush of disease, whom it frees house and body linen of tho of disease, hunts them from their ambush and kills them; yet withal Lifebuoy Soap is a perfect laundry soap, and from it* creamy lather the most delicate fabrics emerge in snowy piles of fragrant napery. Lifebuoy Soap docs not roughen file hands or stain tho nails, being as familiar an object on wasteland and bath-bracket as in kitchen and household. Take Lifebuoy Soap where you will, use it how you will, it is always a perfect soap and perfect Disinfectant. Lifebuoy Soap is a laundry soap that will perfectly' rout the disease germs ambushed in the laundry, thus preventing the weekly wash becoming a disease-carrier.
