LISTERINE.

THE STANDARD ANTISEPTIC.

LISTERINE is a non-toxic, non-irritating and non-encharotão antiseptic, composed of ozoniferous

exsences, vegetable antiseptics, and benzo-horacis acid.

LISTERINE diluted with water or glycerins speedily relieves vertain fermentative forms of

indigestion..

LISTERINE indispensable for the preservation of the teeth, and for maintaining the mucous

membrane of the mouth in a healthy condition.

LISTERINE, employed in the sick-room by means of a spray, or saturated cloths hang about, is actively ozonifying and rapidly oxidizing in its effects upon organic matter afloat in the atmosphere.
