ZEOLITE
Water Softener
Patent Sustained
Infringements Cause Losses
to Innocent Buyers.

The introduction of Zeolite Water
Softening by The Permutit Company,
40 Fourth Avenue, New York, has
made available everywhere the bene-
fits of soft water, no matter how hard
the water supply. The utility, sim
plicity and at>omatic operation of the
apparatus, which can be connected
into any supply line, together with
the fact that it is silly regenerated
with common salt has given it wide
spread popularity and resulted in the.
appearance of limitations often sold,
without referring to Zeolites, under
fancy trade names.
A Zeolite Water Softener, whatever
its trade name, consists of tank in
which a granular substance, the eco
lite, is placed. The zeolites automat-
tcally soften the water passed through
the tank and are reconditioned, or re-.
stored, with common salt at regular
intervals after predetermined
amount of water has been softeDed.
Users of zeolite water softening ap-
paratus may not know that they have
bought a zeOlite water softener be-
cause they bought it under a fancy
trade name, and they may not know
that .ne use of patented apparatus
sold by an infringing manufacturer is
an infringement and can be stopped
by law, even though the purchase was
made innocently and in good faith.
1t should be known to all prospec-
tive buyers of zeolite water softeners
that the Federal Court at Buffalo
(Hazel. j. one June Is, 1921, handed
down a decision sustaining a broad
patent owned by The Permutit Com
pany covering Zeolite Water Soften
ers.
According to this decision, all Eco
! lite Water Softeners on the market
not made by The Permutit Company
are an infringement of this patent,
which is not restricted to any par
ticular zeolite, whatever its trade
name may be.
Prospective purchasers should in
form themselves fully on the subject
in order that they may avoid future
annoyance and possible loss. The
Permutit Company and its authorized
agents are always at the service of
the public and ready to cooperate
with you.

for
Mayor

All things before the American people
today is cut and lower expenses. Why
not start right here in Richmond?
Have you looked over the field to
your satisfaction? Are you informed
of the ones that will not change the
extravagant conditions of the city
management? You owe me nothing
personally; you owe your city for
more economic management, open
and plain TO the citizens; TO give US
lower output | know what | am talk
ing about: this is not political bosh.
Look at that budget-any business
man, ] am a business man. / have
no time to play with the law for gain
or votes. l am a bigger man than that
! have suggested things to better our
morals and pledged myself TO Henry
Ford the city management to a lower
output. OF course, such must be with
cooperation of council. | am a tax
payer and have personal interests, but
not to the extent of Gripping good,
clean city management. There should
be considera BILE class legislation re-
peal and replace the legislation for the
full $4,000 inhabitants; also know
what | am talking about in this
matter, and l know that l know it.
The matter of selection to the Repub-
lican choice will be Tuesday, and
your choice is my choice. My citizen
ship is before you, my business is be
fore you, my family is before you.
If | had to live my business life over,
don't think | would change it much.
The matter of economy, morals and
clean city management is promised
by me, and that is all l can say. Do
not vote for me if you are against
my platform and policy. which is
good for the city. My platform was
in the city papers Nov. %, 1920, and
various times since. There are 5000
leaflets of it distributed in the city.
It's up to the voters to Henry Ford
the city management to an economic
basis and the returns will verify that
fact Kind people, let's get little
nearer to God with our business trans
actions and not all for gain.
