AVOID LEAD POISON.—LEAD ENCASED BLOCK
TIN PIPE.—This article has nowteen In use for the
past four years, and ls daily growing in public favor, being
___          heartily indorsed bv all thô leading

chemistsand physiciânsinthe country,
alsô tlic Wàter Commissioners of New
York, Brooklyn, and Boston. Our ré¬
cent improvements in the manufacture
ins'ures a most perfect article, which
cannot fail tobe fully appreciated.
The advantages of lead pipe with a
perfectly pure block tin lining for
tlio conveyance of-water is .well un¬
derstood ; it gives the full pliability of the Lend with the
liureness of tlieTin. The resisting power of Block Tin being
about five times greater thnn Lead," we' are enabled to fur¬
nish n ])ipo stronger tlian Lead, one-half its weight at
about the same cost por running.foot, which insures n
perfectly safe water pipe for- domestic-use. To furnish
cost per .foot givo tho head or pressure of wter and bore
of pipe.
