    INTRODUCTION.—You will find described here methods of Control- ling Conception. Methods marked with a Star are those most recom- mended by the Medical Profession.. The requisites for each of these can be obtained from Hancock’s of Fleet Street or New Bridge Street and. only from them. These methods have been evolved and brought to perfection only by careful research spread over many years. Hancock’s Research Staff is always at work, and the most up-to-date and scientific knowledge on a difficult subject is ready waiting for you whenever you care to ask or it. Read the first part of this little book, ‘‘ Birth Control Explained.” if there are still any points on which you are not quite clear write to our Health Bureau: Mr. A. N. Hancock or Mrs. Rose Skelton are always eine to help you with advice on any intimate subject which is difficult to discuss, REQUISITES FOR MEN. SHEATHS. %* Sheaths, used in conjunction with a soluble vaginal pessary or tablet, are recommended by the medical profession as being quite harmless, and as giving the greatest possible protection against conception. ‘METHOD NO. 1 ) THE HANCOCK SHEATHS. These sheaths are manufactured of the finest rubber, pure, specially prepared, and medicated. They are very fine, very light and very strong. They will not contract with heat or moisture and will keep in any climate although they are so fine. The more expensive varieties are almost unde- tectable. Each one is tested by us by being blown out to many times normal size. No sheath with the smallest flaw or perforation can pass this test. Each one is packed in a very. small square envelope and larger quantities are packed in the smallest possible containers, which keep them flexible. When ordering you need only quote the number as ——— listed below. Special note iT 3 should be made of numbers a | 44, 47 and 52, which are Latex Sheaths. These are thinner and lighter than usual, but have extra ten- sile strength. They are made from the milk of the rubber tree, no. chemicals at all are used, and the vulcanising is done by a steam process. 1 [P.T.0. FOR PRICES.
