Carbonized Enamel 
IS AS PURE AS CLASS. 
The Bridgeport M'f'g Co., 
OP BRIDGEPORT. CONN. 
(Office, No. 8S Chambers St., New York), 
Have tlie exclusive control of this valuable enamel, and are 
using it to cover all ol their celebrated 
American Submerged Force Pumps, 
They also enamel pipe Inside and out, which delivers the 
water chemically pure. The Enamel is composed of vege- 
table matter, baked on so hard that a blow does not break 
ft, and it resists acids that cut gold. 
Gentlemen: I have examined the sections of Carbonized 
Enamel Pipe submitted to me by von. It is superior to any 
pipe I have ever seen fur resisting acids and conducting 
water from springs or for ase In connection with pnnipe, 
etc. The Enamel adheres with astonishing tenacity, with- 
standing even heavy blows ; and the surface of the metal 
wh re The enamel Is beaten off seems lobe protected against 
the ordinary action of water.
