Silver Screen for July 1936 65 The most tragic triangle of all USBAND...WIFE and FEAR Back of most marriage failures, say family doctors, as woman's fear, born of ignorance and halftruths. "Lysol" would help to prevent many such needless tragedies. TGNorance of proper marriage A hygiene, and the "incompatibility" it brings, is estimated to be the cause of more than half the divorces in America today. The nervous fears of a wife... her natural reluctance to be frank about such a delicate subject ... a husband's puzzled resentment. These are the rocks on which thousands of marriages crash. How stupid— how sad— that this tragedy should go recklessly on — when there is one simple method which has earned the confidence of millions of women who use it regularly. . . the "Lysol" method. There are two important properties of "Lysol" which make it valuable in antiseptic marriage hygiene. (1) It has an exceptional spreading quality; it reaches germs where many ordinary methods can't reach. And, (2) it remains effective in the presence of organic matter (mucus, serum, etc.) when many products don't work. Yet in the proper solution, "Lysol" is dependable and harmless to sensitive tissue. So dependable and harmless, it is used in the delicate operation of childbirth. The use of "Lysol" gives a reassuring sense of antiseptic cleanliness. But, far more important, it gives you peace of mind, free from that tension of suspense that leads to so many needless heartaches. The 6 Special Features of "Lysol" 1. Safety. .."Lysol" is gentle and reliable. It contains no harmful free caustic alkali. 2. Effectiveness... "Lysol" is a true germicide, which means that it kills germs under practical conditions. ..even in the presence of organic matter (such as dirt, mucus, serum, etc.). Some other preparations don't work when they meet with these conditions. 3. Penetration.. ."Lysol" solutions, because of their low surface tension, spread into hidden folds of the skin, and thus virtually search out germs. 4. EcoNOMY..."Lysol", because it is concentrated, costs less than one cent an application in the proper solution for feminine hygiene. 5. Odor.. .The cleanly odor of "Lysol" disappears immediately after use. 6. Stability.. ."Lysol" keeps its full strength, no matter how long it is kept, no matter how often it is uncorked. New!
