These celebrated Filters have been fully
tested by thousands Of families throughout
the United states since 1854; they have been
awarded the First Premiums at state and
County Fairs; they have received the high
est commentators from Chemists and men
Of Science, ana their merit Is estaDllshed as
possessing every Scientific and Practical
adaptation for family use, rendering the
most Impure Rain, River or Hydrant Wa
ter free from all substances, and as pure and
Impure water, like the hard water OF wells,
Is one OF the chief exciting causes Of disease,
creating derangement Of The stomach and
kidneys, resulting in dysentery, cholera, and
the Western states, causing fever and ague
and bilious feVers-
DIR. Weiting says: "a good deal Of observ-
alton and experience has convinced me that
IN those sections Of country where the soil
contains lime, and where, consequently, the
water Is strongly impFesnated with IL, nj
tered rain water should by all means be
used, not only for drinking, but fOr cooking
also. IL would, in my opinion, prevent ma
ny diseases, especially cholera dysentery,
DR.. Dewey, Prof OF Chemistry, says: sfTo
reason on the importance Of pure water Tor
the health and comfort Of society, or 10
prove the deleterious elect Of impure water
on the human system, Is unnecessary at
from wells, springs or streams In this sec
tiOn Of the country. Our waters contain
sulphats Of lime, chloride Of lime, Chloride
Of calcium, sulphate OF rnagnesio, and salts
OfirOn occasionally, all Of which make wa
ter hard. Most OF the above substances ZEN
der water un1t for use. Besides these, there
are In the wells Of all large cities and dense
villages, great impurities from the decOmpO-
sitiOn OF animal matter. These deleteriOus
substances inevitably ind their way
through the porous earth, from vaults and
other repositories OF decaying matter, into
wells. and no method can be devised TO pre-
vent it."
Henry Colt, Prof Of Chemistry, Universi-
ty College, Toronto, says: " Having pur-
chased one OF your Rain Water Filters,
must say that / consider 10 very useful and
excellent article. The construction Is sim
pie, and the large quantity OF defeating
material used IS also OF advantage, as tend
ing 70 lengthen Us period Of action. i have
tried a considerable number Of experiments
with different waters, some very deeply col
Ored, and others Of q most offensive OdOr, In
all cases utterly unit either for drinking or
for culinary purposes, and in every instance
the action Of the Fllier was most satisfactO-
~, as producing clear, cOlorless, tnOdorOus
and tasteless water. The great importance
OF pure water In promoting health Is uni
versaily ACKNOWLEDGED, and the difference
observable between those sections where
pure or impure water Is used, has been con-
cluslvely shown by the late report Of the
Cholera Commissioners. j should, therefore,
very strongly recommend the use Of Fill
ters."
As rain water becomes foul by standing.
therefore these FILTERS are designed for puri-
Tying rain water FOR drinking and cooking,
50 that the hurtfui effects Of Impure water
may be avoided by families and individuals
and TO save the expenses Of well-digging.
They are constructed with circular, caken
case, steel bound, into which IS carefully
packed q prepared compound consisting
mainly OF pure charcoal and silex. The wa
ter 20 be filtered Is poured in at the top,
whence it percOlatcs through the packing.
They not only sfrGfa water, but they clteHlic-
Glfy pifrtlB 10, rendering all son water per-
fanrIW and clear ike THAI which nmII-
bles from the crystal fountain.
In using water nom one Ol these Filters
person may be certain that he Is drinking
nothing but pure tCGteT; while, with well
water, he may swallow minute bugs; or lar
vas, or spawn may find its way 70 the stOm-
ach, causing 70 the individual lifelong sur
feFing and distress. Circularssent On appl-
