THE PURE MINERAL WATERS which are produced by Hadley's Boring Apparatus have been fully tried and approved by several gentlemen who have expressed general satisfaction. The system by which Hadley's Apparatus for boring is arranged precludes all possibility of vegetable matter in any form from entering the j>ii»es : thus producing water having a strong resemblance to the clearest filtered water. By thesa means only are you able to obtain pure water, which is so conducive to health. The wells and rivers in and around Christchurch have been duly analyzed by professional men and found to be so full of vegetable matter and ammalculse that they have expressed as v general opinion that half the sickness on an average is occasioned by the water hitherto used. J. Hadley therefore begs most respectfully to announce to the inhabitants of Christchurch and the surrounding vicinity that he is prepared to bore and sink pipes on the most reasonable termp. For full particulars and testimonials apply to J. HADLEY. Engineer and Smith in General, ' Hereford Street, Christchurch.
