The Truth 
about 
Apollinaris 
/N view of attempts to create undue 
prejudice against Apollinaris, the 
public will he interested to know the true 
facts of the case. 
Apollinaris & Johannis, Ltd., is a 
British Company with 4,500 British 
Shareholders, who have invested over 
£3,000,000 in the Company and who 
hold 97% of the total capital. 
At the commencement of the War the 
German Government, recognising the 
British interest in Apollinaris, placed 
Supervisors in control of the spring in 
the same tvay as the British Govern- 
ment has appointed Supervisors in 
control of some concerns in this country, 
where German interests are paramount. 
Apollinaris water is a natural product 
of the soil and comes from the Apolli- 
naris Spring, situated in the Rhine 
Provinces. 
In 1872, a British Company, recognis- 
ing that the waters of the Apollinaris 
Spring were greatly superior to those of 
any other known mineral spring, success- 
fully secured for British interests the 
world-wide distribution of this famous 
table water. 
Since its foundation 43 years ago, the 
business has been carried on under a 
Board of Directors consisting entirely 
of British subjects. 
Attempts to create prejudice against 
Apollinaris can, therefore, only damage 
the interests of a British Company and 
its 4,500 British Shareholders.
