> LIFE: Disinfect! CHOLER A Disinfect ! Prevention Better Than Cure. THE Bellevue Disinfectants ‘Are composed only of chemicals which have received the highest endorsement of Prof. Koc, of Berlin, Mr. Pas- ‘aun, of Paris, and other eminent investigators a5 being the most powerful destroyers of those germs from which rymotic and septic diseases spring. PROF. R. OGDEN DOREMUS, M.D., LL.D., of Chemistry and Toxtcology at Bellevue Hoapital Medical Erie, evofewor of Chemlatry at the College of the Clty of New York, Sealer of the New York Medico-Legal Society, Academy of Sclences, tie, ee,, writes as follows: 'BELLEvuE Hosrrrat Mepicat Coutece. New Yor, June agth, 1884. To Taz MeTRopoLITan SANITARY COMPANY: Gentlemen—Having analyzed the semples of BELLavur DisinrecTants, I am happy to state that I know from yeansof practical experience in this city and port in the dis- ifesion of hospitals and infected shipping from cholera ports, that excepting enormous volumes of Chlorine gas, there is nothing in the whole range of chemistry equal in potency to the chemicals you employ for disinfection as you specify. vec’ «Bellevue Water, Disinfectant ” find the only available chemical for the purification of water for drinking purposes. It precipitates dissolved or- ganic matter, destroys the noxious gases, and kills the germs contained in it. It is equally efficacious in disinfect- ‘ng house drains. demonstrated before the. New York Academy of Medicine, at the request of its President; that while no water-trap used in plumbing can prevent the passage of poisonous gases from the sewer, the. particular Gremital which I findin * Betievur Water DIsINCECT- ivr” willl destroy them. Prof, RICHARDSON, of Philadelphia, and others have proved that disease germs also pass water-traps. In my brn residence {found germs plentfully developing in pipes teading from one wash basin to another, and I have strongly recommended to my medical classes, to the profession and tothe public, the liberal and constant use of disinfectants asthe only safeguard. In Bellevue Sewer Disinfectant” I find an admixture of those agents which rank highest in chemistry as pr ers of putrid fermentation, destroyers of germ life Teter ofthe formation of poisonous gases.” Recent inv tigations reported in the Comptes Rendus de ! Academie de Science, allot them also this pre-eminent position. ‘One of these ingredients I used successfully in the purifi- cation of the drains of Bellevue Hospital at the time’ when that institution was so impregnated with infectious diseases that its demolition was contemplated, Trust congratulate you on being fiat to present in com mercial form agents which science has shown to far outrank the reputed disinfectants hitherto used, and I believe your preparations will, as preventives of sickness and of the spread of contagion, save many valuable lives. : OcbEN Doranvs, M.D., LL.D.
