It would take too much time to describe the machine, in 1 this article, but we have v.o doubt, our young friends Whitney Armsby would cheerfully show their soda apparatus and explain its use to any person inclined to investigate the suliject In this article vve wish to show what soda water is. what its medical virtues are when properly made and how injurious it is when improperly made. Soda water is water impregnated with carbonic acid gas, or in other words it is carbonic and water. It' forms a grateful drink to febride jiatieiits allaying thirst, lessening nausea, and gastric distress, and promoting the secretion of the kidneys. The great danger is that tlie fountains when they are old and worn will become poisonous by metallic impregnation.

This is discovered by chemical examinations pt the water which will show the slightest trace of copper-or lead. Whitney Armsby give their soda water a careful chemical examination every week as well as personally supei-iiiteuding its manufacture and will warrant that the soda dispensed by them is entirely free from metallic contamination They make their own flavoring extracts and manufacture their syrups from the purest while sugar apd. will guaran. tee its purely. Notwithstanding the very unpropitiotis weather tlie temperance meeting at the Congregational Cliurcji on Sunday evening was a most auspicious affiir.
