                  Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
                                 (unaudited)


NOTE A.  The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared in
accordance with Rule 10-01 of SEC Regulation S-X.  Consequently, they do not
include all the disclosures required under generally accepted accounting
principles for complete financial statements.  However, in the opinion of the
management of National Sanitary Supply Company ("National"), the financial
statements presented herein contain all adjustments (consisting of only normal
recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial position, the
results of operations and cash flows of National and its subsidiaries for the
periods indicated.  For additional information concerning the accounting
policies of National, refer to the consolidated financial statements included in
the 1994 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 28, 1995.

NOTE B.  Cash equivalents include highly liquid investments with  maturities of
three months or less when purchased.

NOTE C.  Earnings per common share are computed on the basis of the weighted
average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the respective
periods.  The dilution that would result from shares issuable under National's
1986, 1988 and 1995 Stock Incentive Plans is not material.

                 Item 2.  Management's Discussion and Analysis
                       of Financial Condition and Results
                                 of Operations
Results of Operations
- ---------------------
National Sanitary Supply Company's sales for the third quarter ended September
30, 1995 were $89,396,000, a 10% increase over sales of $81,232,000 in the third
quarter of 1994.  Net income for the third quarter of 1995 was $1,977,000, a 20%
increase over net income of $1,654,000 in the prior-year third quarter. Earnings
per share of $.33 for the third quarter of 1995 increased 18% over earnings per
share of $.28 in the comparable prior-year quarter.

The third quarter sales increase reflects improved product pricing and strong
sales gains at most locations throughout the National system despite one less
billing day. Sales continued to benefit from ongoing investments in sales
training programs, targeted marketing promotions, and new promotional literature
along with programs to manage product pricing.  The gross profit margin for the
third quarter 1995 decreased .1% point, as a percentage of sales.

Operating expenses as a percentage of sales in the third quarter of 1995
decreased .4% point primarily reflecting the impact of relatively small
increases in many fixed expenses such as administrative personnel cost.

The effective tax rate for the third quarter of 1995 was 41.2%, 1.3% points over
the third quarter rate for 1994 of 39.9%.  Higher state income taxes primarily
account for the increase.

For the nine months ended September 30, 1995, National sales of $255,760,000
increased 11% over sales of $229,667,000 in the comparable period of 1994.  Net
income for the first nine months of 1995 was $4,106,000, a 23% increase over the
prior-year nine months net income of $3,332,000.  Earnings per share of $.68 for
the first nine months of 1995 increased 21% above earnings per share of $.56 for
the first nine months of 1994.

The sales improvement for the first nine months of 1995 reflects increased sales
at most locations aided by improved product pricing. The gross profit margin for
the first nine months of 1995 was unchanged.

Operating expenses as a percentage of sales for the first nine months of 1995
declined .2% point reflecting the continued emphasis on cost containment.

The effective tax rate increased from 41.8% during the first nine months of 1994
to 42.2% during the first nine months of 1995, primarily due to higher state
income taxes.

Looking ahead, management is optimistic about National's sales and profit growth
for the remainder of the year.

Liquidity and capital resources
- -------------------------------
The increase in accounts payable at September 30, 1995 compared with December
31, 1994 primarily reflects the timing of certain inventory purchases and
scheduled payments.

Management believes that National's cash flow from operations and other sources
of liquidity are sufficient for its needs.

(a)  This calculation is submitted in accordance with the Securities Exchange Act of
1934.  Because the incremental effect of unexercised stock options results in dilution
of less than 3%, the per share data presented in the consolidated statement of income
excludes the impact of common stock equivalents.
