The artificial soltzer water, made with a car-bonio-acid generator, is already an imitation, far from perfect, of the natnral water. A re. cipe to make it on the amall actio for family uae, u it were, can only give a product differing till more from that of the apring.

Diaaolve all the salta, excepting the tartario acid and bicarbonate, in about one pint of water, and introduce the solution into a champagne bottle. Then, having completed the requisite quantity nf liquid ao aa to leave an empty ipaoe of about two nuid ounces, add the tartario acid, and, immediately after, the bioarbonate of aoda. Cork the bottle tightly, aecure the cork with stout cord, and set the bottle aside for about six hours before it i opened. It is then ready or use.
