Healthy Homes. THE importance of keeping every department of the household thoroughly dean and disinfected is brought forcibly home during such distressing epidemics as the Bubonic Plague, Smallpox, and Typhoid. At such times it cannot be too well known that the systematic use of Lifebuoy Soap is invaluable as a safeguard against infection. Use Lifebuoy Soap from attic to cellar, on shelves, doors, floors, floor coverings, and bed, table, and personal linen. As a pure, genuine soap and a first-class disinfectant combined, there is nothing to compare with UFENOY DISINFECTANT SOAP which has the largest sale of any disinfectant soap in the world. Dr. Karl Enoch, Chemisch, Hygienisches Institut, Hamburg, put Lifebuoy Royal Disinfectant Soap through a severe test and proved its power to destroy disease. Solutions of 1%, 2 °/ o . and 5 °/ o of Lifebuoy Soap in water were made. These Solutions were brought to bear on a variety of clean, cultivated germs or microbes; in each case a certain exact time being allowed for the operation. Dr. Karl Enoch gives the result of his experiments as follows: — Microbes Destroyed. n Time. Typhoid ... ... 5 °/ o 2 hours Cholera 2 % 15 min. „5% 5 - » Diphtheria 5 °/ 0 2 hours Carbuncle ... ... 5 °/ 0 4 „ Dr. Karl Enoch writes :—“ From the foregoing experiments it will be seen that the Lifebuoy Royal Disinfectant Soap is a powerful disinfectant and exterminator of the various germs and microbes of disease.”
