To guard the mothers of new-born babies from the dread risk of puerperal fever, obstetricians and nurses of to-day depend on ‘ Dettol.’ This remarkable antiseptic is now the chosen weapon of modern surgery.

It is a clean, clear fluid, pleasant in smell, agreeable to use —yet with germs that invade human tissues it is ruthless.
