EVERYBODY'S FILTER.

With the Feilding water supply in the state in which we find it daily at the present time, the question of filtering is one which appeals to every householder in the Borough. The public will therefore be pleased to hear that a small filter, which can be fitted on to any tap, has been introduced to Feilding, and may now be obtained. 'Everybody's Filter" is a small brass nob, which holds a piece of wadding inside, through which the water has to filtrate when the arrangement is fitted to the mouth of the tap, and although the filter makes no appreciable difference to the flow of the water, it completely prevents the passage of all foreign animal and vegetable matter in the water. Mr W. C. Badden, sole agent for the filter, called at our office this morning, ana in illustrating the bene- ; fits of the filter, fitted it on to the office reticulation pipe, and taking it off after allowing the water to now through for 30 seconds, showed a collection of dirt and muck in the filter which was rather astonishing. The filter is simplicity itself. There is no trouble in fixing it on to a tap, and all that is necessary is to change the small piece of wadding as desired. Mr Badden will have the filter on exhibition to-day, as announced in an inset in to-day's paper, and all householders will be well advised if they have the filter attached to service or tank pipes. The medical faction of Palmerston N. have strongly recommended the filters, and several of them have secured them for use on their own taps. — Advt.
