AVOID LEAD POISON.—LEAD ENCASED BLOCK
TIN PIPE.—This article lias now been in use for the
past four years, and Is daily growing in public favor, being
heartily indorsed bv nll the leading
chcmlsts.ind phy.slciansin tho country,
also the Water Commissioners of .New
York, Brooklyn, and Boston. Our ré¬
cent improvements in the mannfactaro
Insures a most perfect article, wbieh
cannot .fall to be fnlly appreciated.
3"ho advantages of lead pipe wltb a
perfectly pure block tin lining for
for the convey.ince of water Is well un¬
derstood ; It gives the full plinb'Ulty of the Lead with the
purenessof the Tin. The resîstingpowerof Block Tin being
about flve times greater than Lead, we are enabled to fur¬
nish a pipe stronger than Lead, one-half its weight at
about tlie same cost per running foot, which insures a
perfectly safe water pipe for doinestic use. To furnish
cost per foot give the head or pressure of water ond bore
of pipe.

From the American AgrîctiUurist.

"SAFE PIPE FOR DRINKING-WATER.-Load
poisoning from water brought In lead pipe, is the often
unsuspeeted cause of di.sease and death, Galvanized iron
pi])e, wood and cernent pii)e, are expen-sive and inconvéni¬
ent substances, so tbat people will rtsk tlieir lives and use
lead. The Lead-encised Block-tin ]iii>e Is evi-n cheaper
than lead. and we believe perfectly sale. Our faith in it .
has led us recently to laj- some eighty feet of It, through
which ail onr drinkinc-water is drawn."
