"The Protection Bottle" is the name
given 10 bottle invented by George b.
Barnes, and owned by himself and
Thomas Cullen, both Of this city. The
merit Of this article is that it cannot be
reflled after having once been emptied.
1t is designed for high grade liquors,
wines, proprietary medicines and for
valuable liquids of any description. 1t
has been the complaint of maniac
turerS OF these fine quality Of goods
that their bottles are refiled with in
ferior stuff after the original contents
has been poured out. The bottle has
been subjected to the most severe tests,
even heating it to exhaust the air and
setting it inverted in vessel Of water.
The benefit of the bottle is not solely to
the makers of the contents, for the rea-
son that it can be used but once and
must necessarily create business for
glass makers. 1t will require large
factory indeed to meet the demands Of
the trade. Success to the new bottle.
