Seltzogene

Machine.

In

order

to

make

aerated

waters

property,

it

is

absolutely

necessary

to

possess

a

powerful

aerating

and

bottling

machine,

and

the

water

must

be,

with

the

carbonic

acid

gas

and

chemicals,

of

the

purest

quality;

the

corks

used

must

also

be

excellent

and

prepared.

Tlte

Seltzogene

is

a

very

useful

machine

for

aerating

water

or

beverages

of

any

description;

it

differs

from,

and

is

an

improvement

upon,

the

Gazogene

:

being

made

without

joint

of

one

piece

of

glass,

which

renders

the

apparatus

free

from

leakage.

They

are,

with

ordinary

care,

managed

with

ease,

and

directions

are

always

fully

given

from

the

maker,

or

from

whom

purchased.

When

bottled

soda-water

is

not

attainable,

either

for

use

on

board

ship,

or

for

the

colonies,

these

machines

are

very

valuable.
