A.M.I Some Reflections on a Boiling Copper. " The cojyper's boilinc"—this is the corn* tnon phrase of early Monday, the housewife's call to the weekly task. Let us follow it with a question that is not so simple as it sounds : "What is it boiling for?" Most people would answer, "Why, to boil the dirt ont of the clothes, of course." Quite so, but for health , * sake something more than dirt has to be done away with in the household wishing, namely, the seeds of infections disease. Infection may be communicated to a whole city (and beyond it) from one single patient, of which the smallpox epidemic is a. case in point. It is due to tiny organisms, hardly visible through a microscope but intensely alive, thrown off in the course of the disease. These float in the air or dutt and drift to clothes and house linen as naturally as steel draws to a magnet; we call them " Germs," or seeds of disease, because jost as in ordinary seed grows to a plant, so a disease germ on a human body breeds disease; the only protection against germ* is to destroy them. - The question is: Will boiling; water act? common soap do it? Not always; some disease germs may thrive, or even breed, in both. So we must use a cleanser that will not only dean clothes and house linen thoroughly, but also kill all disease .germs that have lodged in them. Fortunately for os, manufacture and science have combined to meet this want with Lifebuoy Soap. By using Lifebuoy Soap in the laundry the genua of infections diseases are caught and kilted wholesale, because Lifebuoy boap is both a perfect laundry cleanser and a strong disinfectant as well, and when the household clothing and linen are washed with it, disease germs end destruction instead of a refuge. Our crowded population doubles the risk of infection, Lifebuoy Soap reduces it; bat . Lifebuoy Soap must be so used as to cover both cleansing and disinfection; Lifebuoy Soap for the bath.
