Abstract
A dispenser for individually dispensing paper towels from a stack of interfolded paper towels. The paper towels are received in a housing and dispensed by their ends through a slot in a smooth and generally uninterrupted manner. The slot is formed with a narrow medial portion and enlarged end portions to release only one paper towel at a time. Moreover, the dispenser effectively resists a user pulling a bunch of paper towels from the dispenser.
