GREAT AMERICAN COFFEE POT.

There are but few inventions that possess as much
merit this coffee pot. Its construction is per-
feet and upon purely scientific principles and is
trey unlike any other yet produced Its adoption
as the standard coffee pot Of the country by appre-
ciative public is alone question Of time.
ITS OPERATIoN-When the water in the pot boils,
the steam and heated collect under the false bot
tom and force their way up the conca tube against the
of the straner; thence being dashed over the
shower they descend through its perforated bottom in
contained in the strainer and passing through it and
extracting it's strength the liquid descends into the
drain pipe into the lower reservoir to fill up the partial
caused by the boiling through the cOnical
shaped tube.
The same process is repeated as many times as de
Sired until the strength and of the coffee
fhnrnilnhlV extrnctnd. Tlns
