THE OLD DOMINION COFFEE POT.
YNHlS NEW COFFEE POT, for which patent has been
issued possess this advantage all others 1t is well
known that in the ordinary way of boiling coffee the fine
aroma which gives the coffee its most delicious flavor,
passes off with the vapor and the longer is boiled the
more bitter and unpalaahe, and unhealthy it becomes;
hence resort to the French Straner which gives
tasting beverage. " THE OLD DOMINION COFFEE
POT" entirely prevents the escape of aroma. One-thrd
less coffee is required and the full flavor of the berry
taned large number of testimonials have been received
from those who have used them. For sale by
