Abstract

The combination of zig zag folded tissue stack has separate portions of the tissue defined by lateral perforations. The tissue is a moisturized tissue and is retained in a special rectangular container with the free end of the tissue fitted through a slit which frictionally retains the tissue unless it is manually moved through the slit. The slit is fashioned in a manner which facilitates tearing of the portions of the tissue along the perforations after it is withdrawn through the slit. A cap for the slit is designed to keep the exposed portion of the tissue moist.
