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 advantages 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, Lor instance, the roller towel in schools,. I offices, etc. Alter a few heavy 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 upplies to schools,, because children do not realise the danger of infection,, and do not exercise tlio ear that adults''would; consequently it is quite easy to understand how children contract the various form of illness when at school. The Ovalocit possesses distinctive features winch render is easily superior to any other paper'towel on tho market. II is the only roll towel of single sheet discharge, thus permitting the elmination ot the stillness and harshness which all interfoldcd towels require. Ovalocks, fed from the roll are therefore made softer, more absorbant, and arc'more efficient and pleasant to use. The flaky fibres are woven into a clean and porous tissuo which greedily absorbs. every particle of moisturo 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 j more economical towel to replueo than the Ovalock. It removes all danger of contagion, costs less than the old time schools, and public buildings everywhere are installing Ovalocks. These Sanitary Towels have been installed by the Mount Cook Motor Co., S.C. Hospital Board, S.C. Club, and leading doctors, and can bo bad from John Edmond Ltd., Hardware Merchants, Sophia Street, who will be pleased to have yc ur inquiries.— (Advt).
