Connect with this, bjmeans of a flange and screws, apipe, c, to supply water from a cis-tern above. The water will rise through the sponge and sand,and may be drawn off at d. The same may be cleaned bytaking out the pipe and sponge, ¥S- • stopping up, temporarily, the aper-ture, and giving the cask, partlyfilled with water, several turns withthe wrench. A still more simple filtering ap-paratus is shown in fig. 7. Anyconvenient vessel, as a, 6, may befitted with three partitions.
