               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 and 1988 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 first quarter ended March 31,
1995 were $80,793,000, a 13% increase over sales of $71,460,000 in the first
quarter of 1994.  Net income for the first quarter of 1995 was $759,000, a 32%
increase over net income of $574,000 reported in the prior-year first quarter. 
Earnings per share of $.13 for the first quarter of 1995 increased 30% over
earnings per share of $.10 reported in the comparable prior-year quarter.

During the first quarter most of National's locations recorded double-digit
sales growth.  Improved pricing in plastic and paper product categories, the
debut of a new full-line product catalog, new product introductions, and a
stronger economy fueled rapid sales growth during the quarter.  National's
first quarter 1995 gross profit margin of 31.5% increased from 31.2% in the
first quarter of 1994, primarily the result of a slower growth in certain
overhead costs as a % of sales.

Operating expenses increased 13% during the first quarter of 1995 over the prior
year reflecting the additional sales volume and National's continued investment
in programs that will improve market share.  For example, investments continue
to be made in the Midwest operating group in anticipation of future expansion
into new geographic markets.  Additionally, National is investing in new sales
and training programs designed to enhance market penetration and improve selling
efficiencies.

The effective tax rate declined from 45.8% during the first quarter of 1994 to 
44.5% during the first quarter of 1995, primarily due higher profits in states
with lower tax rates and spreading the same year-to-year level of nontax-
deductible goodwill over more income.

Liquidity and capital resources
- -------------------------------
Management believes that the company's cash flow from operations and other
sources of liquidity are sufficient for its needs.  There were no material
changes in the Company's financial position during the first quarter of 1995.
