The second outlet of the cocks was
connected to an air pump for ex-
hausting, and the third to vessel
of water. Closing the cock to the
water and opening those to the bot
tie and to the pump a large part Of
the air was exhausted from the bot
tie. The cock to the air pump was
then closed and by gradually open
ing the cock to the water it was pos
sible to allow the water to flow into
the neck of the bottle as slowly as
I'm every case the valve-stopper
lifted to it's seat and closed as soon
as the water came up around 1t and
before the water could pass the stop
per and enter the bottle. The buoy
ant effect of the water, together with
the force of the spring lifts the stop
per to it's seat before the water
reaches the top of the stopper. A
similar experiment with the bottle
inclined succeeded no better. AT any
inclination, either the spring alone,
or the spring combined with the
buoyancy Of the water will send the
valve to its seat before the water
can enter the bottle, and additional
force only sends the valve tighter.
From critical examination of the
bottle and my own tests I believe it
to be scientifically as well as practi-
cally 'non-ref1llable.
The casual observer may inquire
"of what practical use is this. me-
chanical bottle?" and the answer may
be found in stating that the public
with the use of this bottle is abso-
lutely protected from being imposed
upon by having an inferior article
placed before them, because If moth
ing can be inserted in the bottle af-
ter being once filed, the contents can
never be adulterated or masquerad-
ed under a false label. It will COM
pei dealers to be honest with their
patrons, and it will simplify the du-
ties of the government SO far as the
sale Of pure food is concerned. 1t
will revolutionize the drug trade be-
cause the bottles on the shelves can
never be tempered with when once
filled and it will be a treasure to the
medical profession because they will
know that prescriptions can be truly
compounded 1t will be a blessing
to humanity, more particularly to the
poor because they will be served with
honest liquid, particularly in milk
and medicine. 1t will revolutionfze
the liquor trade because no inferior
brands of liquor can now be mas
queraded under false colors and the
blends" will be true to name.
The cost of the production is SEAS
per gross to manufacture and the
distillers are paying to-day 1915 per
gross for the ordinary bottle with alb
solutely no protection. There are,
In round numbers, 800 distillers in
the country and it is estimated that
each distiller consumes on an aver
age of 80 gross each day and the
annual consumption is 100000 bot
ties. If this bottle is sold at the same
price as the unprotected bottle now
in use it would mean a profit of ST
per gross to the manufacturers and
with a daily output of 420 gross
day figures nice snug profit of
S637,55O each year for the stockhold-
ers: The company is capitalized at
