"TI-TROL"

GERMICIDAL

TOILET SOAP

THE ONLY SOAP CONTAINING TI-TROL OIL. AS FAR BACK as can be traced it has been found that the Aborigines have been using various species of Ti-tree for medicinal purposes. Of three hundred different kinds of Ti-tree, one produces an oil which has been proved to be eleven to thirteen times stronger than Carbolic Acid as a germicide, but NON-POISONOUS and NON-IRRITANT. This Oil, called TI-TROL, has been confined exclusively to the medical profession, and after extensive investigations is now released to the public in the medicated Toilet Soap called TI-TROL.
