Praise
for Acme Beers
The United States Health Bulletin, the American authority
on matters of health, sanitation and hygiene, in its issue for
May, 1904, contains the following editorial comment:—
' “One of the soveral breweries of whose product we have
spokeh before, as .etching' a high degree of perfection from
its care in preparation, its freedom from adulteration together •
with the purity of the water used in its manufacture and the
sanitary and hygienic methods employed in the handling of
this brewery as one of the few that we know to be of as
high and honest a grade as it is possible to produce, and we
make this s editorial recommendation without any request
from and without even the knowledge of the manufacturers
of this beer, that it i' to be maAe at the time of its printing,
gladly letting them derive what benefit they may from the
publicity we give them, in the interests of purity in the mak
ing of food and drink. ”
