Gr1yEAN's PATENT SPRING FILTER.-One
of Guinean's patent spring filters has been on
trial in this office for the past two weeks and
rives entire satisfaction. The usual objection
to filters, that in clearing the water of its i'm
purities the life of the water also is takeu
from it. does not obtain in the present case.
The principle aimed at by Mr.. Guinean in
the construction of his filter was to overcome
this objection, and in which he has been sue
cessful The filter consists In the ordinary
receptacle for the usual flterlng material,
with perforated air chamber at the bottom,
through which the water passes. This cham
Der is constantly supple with fresh air, by
means of two tubes extending from it to above
the top. of which one is somewhat the long
est, to cause the air to pass in through the
shortest and out Of the other, something IN
the nature of the siphon. The pressure OF
air upward through the chamber into the nj
tering material also prevents the sediment
from working downward and causes 1t to re,
main upon the top, enabling the easy removal
of all foreign substances whenever necessary,
without the necessity of the trouble and ex-
pens, of exchanging all the material and re.
packing the filter. This improvement will
be appreciated by all who have had expert
ence in that line.
