A New fcdUufA Rollaway Lint Remover is distributed by Apex Products Co., 1906 S. Arlington Ave., Los Angeles; $2.95 complete; replacement roils $1. Though showing no resemblance to the conventional clothesbrush, the Rollaway Lint Remover does an excellent job of removing lint and other surface dirt from clothing, upholstery, and even smooth surfaces such as desks and counter tops. This lint remover is apparently meant primarily for use by tailors or cleaners who have the problem of completely eliminating lint from goods about to be de livered, especially when the gar ments are of certain grades and textures on which lint or dust may be very conspicuous. It consists of a simple wooden roller about 4 inches long around wK \is wound a considerable len^-d of a 4-in. wide tacky paper tape, like masking tape This is wound on in many lay- Abridged Cumulative Index of Previous 1947 Issues .onsumers' Research Bulletins Month and Page -thritis, not cured by having teeth pulled..............................................

The tape and its roller are mounted on a steel rod bent to suitable shape, with an attached wooden handle so that the de vice can be used to remove lint by simply rolling it over the dusty surface. Linty materials, of course, are picked up and adhere to the sticky surface of the tape. When the roller has become coated with lint, the surface can be cleaned and re newed by wiping off with a clean soft rag saturated with a little household cleaning sol vent (of the non-flammable type, of course--and do not breathe the fumes, which are always poisonous).
