The Late Sir E r a s m u s W il s o n wrote:—“ All closely-woven fabrics, such as the ordinary under­ vests, whether thick or thin as gauze, worn next the skin in warm weather, become saturated with moisture, and thus form an impermeable and air-tight covering, preventing that free transpira­ tion of the skin so necessary to comfort, and even to life.” J. M a c d o n a l d R o g e r s , Esq., R .N ., Fellow of the Royal College of Surgeons, writes—*■The ‘ Net of Health ’ vest manufactured by Struthers & Co. appears to me to combine all that the most ardent hygienic reformer can desire. It is the only undervest I have seen which admits of free res­ piration, and yet is as warm as many of the un­ healthy closely woven garments usually worn, and being perfectly absorbent it is the most comfort­ able garment I know of to take exercise in.” Pure UNSHRINKABLE Wool, 4/6 I 3 for 13/- Carriage Paid to anypart of the UnitedKingdom STRUTHERS &Co. 83, FINSBURY PAVEMENT, LONDON,E-C.
