Sir: In conjunction with several other members
Of the Medical profession gave you, some years
since certificate Of the good quality of your
Mineral Water. With IA commendablc jealousy Of
your own works, lest confidence in their abiding
good reputation should have led to neglect you have
again applied to me for an analysis Of several speci
mons Of Mineral Water, purporting to have been
made after different methods by different persons,
the particulars Of which were not furnished the only
distinction apparent being in the color Of the bottles
have examined the several specimens submitted,
and find as follows: The water in the ,0itite glass
bottles is free from all impurities that in the green
bottles contains sensible quantity Of suphuric acid,
which is evident TO the smell and taste, well to
the proper chealical tests. From recent inspec-
ton Of your process led to the conviction that
the only impurities which could possibly gain access
to the water were lead and sulphuric acid Of lead
find no traces whatever in any Of the bottles the
amount Of suphurc acid present In the green bottles,
though small is Objectionable, and must he regarded
as an impuity as the Mineral Water Processes to be
cree from all such admixtuTcS. ! therefore certify
that the Mineral Water contained in the white bot.
ties sen, to me was pure, and in my opinion saluta.
ry while that in the green bottles was impure and
unfit for common beverage.
