T E 3D W A T FJ R S The public do not, perhaps. generally know that there is as much difference between good and bad Aerated Waters as there is between good and had Wine."—Evening Times, August Sth, 1878.. The above paragraph states a truism which is patent to all who know anything about the Aerated Water Trade. To the most of people a bottle of Soda is a buttle of Soda all the world over but it is a fact that there is as much difference between a really good and an inferior Aerated Water as there is between a Port or Sherry of the finest brand and a Wine of the poorest class. All our Manufactures are prepared at the famous Cromac Springs, Belfast (our Trade Address), the water of which is so well know.1 for its peculiarity in the production of first-class beverages. Our aim has been at all times to produce a first-class article at a reasonable price, rather than compete with other makers' who appear to think how cheap an article can be made. without any regard to quality.
