on all sides the water can pass through the Coffee with greater rapidity.-The
advantages claimed for the Strainer are that it is invisible when in use and does
not disfigure the elegance of the Coffee Pot-and the sides being perforated as well
as the bottom greater speed is obtained in making the Coffee whilst its purity is at
the same time improved.
For the above reasons the title "Express" Coffee Pot has been adopted to
