SANITARY TOWELS.

For many years past in Canada, U.S.A., and other progressive parts of the world, the Paper Towel lias been generally adopted because of its advantages both from a sanitary point of view and from the (joint of view of utility. It does not require any great stretch of imagination to realise* how easy it is to sprea'd. contagious diseases per medium of the linen towel. Imagine, lor instance, the roller towel in 'schools, offices, etc. Alter a lew bonus general use it changes colour.' This discolouration is caused by dirt, laden with germs, and ’it is. not. hard' to realism how during an epidemic tlie public towel becomes a prolific source of contagion. This particularly applies Fo schools, because children do not realise tlie danger of infection, and do not exercise tho car that adults would; consequently it is quite easy to understand how children contract the various form of illness when at school. Tho Ovaloek possesses distinctive fealures which render is easily superior to any other paper towel on' the market. It is tlie only roll towol of single sheet discharge, thus permitting tho elniinution of the stiffness and harshness which all interfolded towels require. Ovalocks. fed from tlie roll aro tiiereioro made softer, more absorbent, and are more efficient and pleasant to use.' The flaky fibres arc woven into a clean and porous tissue which greedily absorbs every particle of moisture or grease, leaving the skin refreshingly sol t ami clean. For workshops, factories, and garages, it is tho ideal towel. 'The day of the unsanitary old “roller towel” in schools, offices, and public buildings is happily past. There is .no better or more economical towel to replace thin: tiie Ovaloek. It removes aii danger oi contagion', costs less than llie°old time schools, and public buildings everywhere are installing, Ovalocks. Those Sanitary Towels Jiavo been installed hv the Mount Cook Motor Co., B.C. Hospital Board, S.C. Club, and leading doctors, and can bo bad from John Edmond Ltd., Hardwaro Merchants.
