These Celebrated Filters have been fully
tested by thousands Of families throughout
the United states since 1854; they have been
awarded the First Premiums az State and
County Fairs; they have received the high
est commentators from Chemists q nd men
Of Science, and their merit IS established a.

adaptation for family use, reL dering the
most Impure Rain, River or Hydrant Wa

Dr. Weiting says. "a good deal OF observ-
alton and eNpe lence has convinced me that
IN those sections OF country where the soil
contains lime. and where, consequently, the
water Is strongly impregnated with 10, NJ
tered rain water should By all means be
used, not only for drinking, but for cooking
also. ItWOuld, in my opinion, prevent ma
ny diseases especially cholera dysentery,

Henry Colt, Prof Of Chemistry, Universi-
ty College, Toronto, says: q Having yur-
chased one Of your Rain Water Filters,
must say that consider 10 q very useful ana
excellent article. The construction Is SIM
pie and the large quantity OF defecarinE
material used Is also Of advantage, a. tend
ing 70 lengtben its period Of action. I have
tried q considerable number Of experiments
with different waters, some very deeply col
ored, and others Of a most offensive odorr IN
all cases utterly unit either for drinking or
for culinary purposes, and lAes eiy instance
the action ofthS Filter was most satisiacto-
". as producing q clear, c0lOrless. inodOrOus
and tasteless water. The great importance
OF pure water IN promoting health = uni
yersaIIy acknowledged, and the diuerenee
ofServabIe betyyeeu those sections where
pure or impure water y used has been con-
eiusively shown by the late report OF the
Cholera Commissioners shOuids tnereiOret
very strongly recommend the use Of Fla
ters."
As rain water becomes foul by standing.
therefore these FILTERS are designed for p.tT1-
fying rain water for drinking and eoOF ngs

may be avoided by families and individuals
ana 20 save the expenses OF Weli-di fg1ng.
They are constructed with circular, oaken
