This core of touchwood is enclosed in a layer of absorbent cotton, which in turn is surrounded vby cellulose having considerable absorbing power. 'Finally the whole pad is covered with absorbent gauze. A short piece ot' coloured silk string tied at one end of the pad, permits it to be easily removed.

As will be evident, such a pad is soft, ex-
ceedingly practical and does not interfere with walking. Its shape is designed so as to assure perfect stoppage and it isheld in proper positio pressure. It
