A method for automatically connecting together packages of fan-folded towelling in a dispenser. A pattern of adhesive tape or glue is applied to the lower-most surface of an upper package and a corresponding pattern of adhesive tape or glue is applied to the upper-most surface of a lower package. When the two packages are placed on top of each other, the adhesive patterns adhere to each other, thereby connecting both packages together. Thus, when the lower package is exhausted, the upper package is automatically drawn through the dispenser opening and is available for the user.

The present invention is directed to preparation and dispensing of moist, hot towels which has become standard practice in international airline travel and is recognized as a desired passenger convenience. Limitations on cost, storage space, and airline attendant time have restricted the airlines' ability to make such a convenience more widespread. The present invention provides a compact, efficient means for containing, preparing and dispensing moist, hot towels that overcomes these drawbacks. As disclosed, the container of the invention includes a bottom formed at least partially of heat insulating material that is adapted to contain a stack of, for example, disposable towels and that has self-supporting sidewalls. A top cover is included that is similarly shaped, but of a slightly smaller dimension so that it will fit inside the cavity of the bottom. In use, the disposable towels are placed within the bottom cavity, and preferably using the cavity of the top, the desired amount of hot water is added to the towels. In cases where the bottom is less than full of towels, the top may be inverted and used to express excess water by pressing against the towels with the bottom tipped so as to drain the excess water. The hot, moist towels may then be dispensed one at a time. After use, the towels may be collected in the container, the top replaced and the entire contents discarded. Additional preferred embodiments disclosed are where the top and bottom are formed from expanded polystyrene, and have outwardly extending sides with the angle variation from vertical of the bottom sides in the range of up to 30.degree. and for the top sides is about 2.degree. to 10.degree. less.
