SANITARY TOWELS.

For many years past in Canada, U.S.A., and other progressive parts of the world, the Paper Towel has been generally adopted-because of its Gadj-, vantages both from a sanitary point of view and from the point of . view of utility, it does not require any great stretch of imagination to realise how easy it is to spread contagious diseases per medium of the linen towel. Imagine, tor instance, tho roller towel in schools, offices, etc. After a few hours general use it changes colour. This discolouration is caused by dirt laden with germs, and it is not hard to realise how during an epidemic the public towel ’becomes a prolific source of contagion. This particularly, applies to schools, because children do not realise the danger of infection, and do not exercise the car that adults would; consequently it is quite easy to understand liow children contract-the various-form-of illness when at school. The Ovnlocic possesses distinctive features which render is easily superior, to any other paper towel on the market. It is the only roll towel of singlo sheet discharge, thus permitting the elmination of the stiffness and harshness which all interfolded towels require. Ovalocks, fed from the roll .are therefore made softer, moro absorbant, and are more efficient and pleasant to use. The flaky fibres are woven'into a clean and porous tissue which greedily absorbs every particle of moisture or grease, leaving the skin refreshingly soft and clean. For workshops, factories, and garages, it is the ideal towel. . The day of the unsanitary old “roller towel” in schools, offices, and public buildings is happily past. There is no better or moro economical towel to replace than the Ovalock. It removes all danger of contagion, costs less than the old -time schools-, - and publio -buildings everywhere are installing- Ovalocks., These Sanitary Towels havo been installed by the Mount Cook Motor Co., S.C. Hospital Board, S.C. Club, ■ and leading doctors, and can be had from John Edmond Ltd., Hardware Merchants, Sophia Street, who will bo pleased to have your inquiries.— (Advt).
