The New Spring House and Boftler y



The



VERY visitor to Poland Spring is particularly and cordially invited to inspect these new
buildings which are, without doubt, the most elaborate and perfect ever erected for the
purposes for which they were designed. The exterior design of both buildings suggests
the architecture of Spain. The walls are of hydraulic pressed, gray, mottled, fire-brick.
The roofs are covered with dull glazed, green mission tile. The frames are entirely of steel.
Directly beneath the hip roof of the tower which rises eighty feet above the ground, are
openings through which air is drawn to ventilate the Botllery. After passing through



â– D ^>.1__^ cotton tillers, the air enttrs directly beneath the ceiling of this room and is exhausted through
XJOlllCry openings near the floor, thus insuring perfect circulation of the purest air.

The floor, walls, and ceiling of the Bottlery are of Carrara sanitary glass, an inch in thickness, resembling
in color the famous marble of that name. This material is very hard, impervious to moisture, and may be
kept absolutely clean by rinsing. All the mechanical devices used in this room are the newest and
best that can be procured.

At the east end of this building is the public room, fini: hed in Tyrolean style. One whole side of this
room is a single sheet of the finest French plate glass through which can be seen the entire process of bottling.

Everything about this room, from the dull green Gruby tiled floor to the hand wrought copper electroliers
suspended from the dark oak beams of the ceiling above, is in charming taste, and its treatmjiit is quite in
contrast with the rest of the building.




1 he The graceful copper dome, cornice, and wrought iron work in this smaller building

_ . .jj give it a more ornate appearance than the larger building. Its interior will

Spring rlouse consist of two rooms — a spring room and a public room, divided by a curved plate
glass screen set in a light ornamental iron frame.

The spring room will be finished in Carrara glass, while the public room is elaborately finished in genuine
Italian Pavanezzo Marble. The columns here are single monoliths surmounted by carved Ionic capitals of
the same material. The floor is marble mosaic decorated in the centre with a large mosaic reproduction
of the coat of arms of the Ricker family.

The vaulted ceiling is of imported cement and is pierced in the centre by three beautiful stained glass
windows. The design, material, and workmanship represent most careful study and have resulted in
complete, modern high class, fire proof, and sanitary structures, dignified and monumental.
