These celebrated Filters have been ruily
tested by thousands Of families throughOut
the United states since 1854; they have been
awarded the First Premiums at State and
est Communications frOIn Chemists and men
OF Science, and their merit Is established as
possessing every Scientific aud Practical
adaptation for family use, rendering the
most Impure Rain, River or HydrGnt Wa
ter free from all substances, and as pure and
clear as crystal.
Impure water, like the hard water Of wells,
Is one OF the chief exciting causes 9f disease,
creating derangement OF the stomach and
kidneys, resulting In dyssntery, chOlern.aud
renal diseases; and In new countries, as In
the Western states, causing fever and ague
DR.. Weiting says: "a good deal OF obsarv-
alton and experience has convinced me that
IN those sections of country where the soil
contains lime, and where, cOnsequently,th the
water Is strongly tn-pregnated with Il, NJ
tered rain water should by all means bo
used, not only for drinking, but for cooking
also. ltWouldi IN my opinion, prevent ma
ny diseases, especially cholera, dyBentery,
etc"
DR.. Dewey, Prof. o. Chemistry, says: "ro
reason on the Importance OF pure Wdter for
the health and comfort Of society, or to
prove the deleteriOus effect OF Impure water
on the human SYSTEM Is unnecessary at
this day. Pure water cannot De procured
tlOn Of the country. Our waters contain
sulphate Of lime, chloride OF lime, Chloride
of calcium, sulpnate OF magnesia, and salts
OfirOn occasionally, all OF which make wa
ter hard. Most OF the above substances rem
der water unfit for use. Besides these, there
are IN the wells OF all large cities and dense
villages, great impurities nom the deconupo-
sitiOn of animal matter. These deleterious
substances inevitably ind their way
through the porous earth, frOm vaults ana
other repositories OF decaying matter, into
wells, and no method can be devised 20 pre-
vent It."
Henry Colt, Prof Of Chemistry, Universi-
ty College, Toronto, says: q Having pur-
chased one OF your Rain Water Filters, I
must say that consider IL q very useful and
excellent article. The construction Is sim
pie, and the large quantity Of deiecating
material used Is also Of advantage, as tend
ing 70 lengshen its period OF action. have
tried considerable number OF experiments
with different waters, some very deeply col
Ored, and others OF q most offensive odOr, In
an cases utterly unfit either for drinkine or
for culinary purposes, and in every instance
the action Of the Filler was most sarisfactO-
~ as producing clear, coloriess, inOdoFOus
and tasteless water. fhS great importance
OF pure water In promoting health Is uni
Yersally acknowledged, and the differences
observable between those sections where
pure or impure water is used, has been con-
elusively shown by the late report Of the
Cholera Commissioners. should, therefore,
very strongly recommend the use Of Fii-
ters."
As rain water becomes foul By standing.
therefore these Filters are designed for puFi-
flying rain water for drinking and cooking.
50 that the hurtful effects Of impure water
may be avoided by families and individuals
and 70 save the expenses OF Well-dlgging.
They are constructed with q circular, OEken
ease, steel bound, into which Is carefully
packed q prepared compound consisting
mainly OF pure charcoal and silex. The wa
ter 70 be filtered Is poured In &C the top,
whence Il percolates through the packing.
They not only strdflt water, bat they ohensfc-
ally purity IL, rendering all sOft water per-
fectly pure and clear, ike that which bub-
bles from the crystal fountain.
In using water from one Oh these Filters q

nothing but pure tgdteT, while, with wei
