NOTICE To NON-CONSUMERS. I
New Departure in the Water
Business of Interest to
lintler People.
sinic the Water company has changed
ownership we have expended a large
amount of money in inproving the plant
and the water supply, as the present
patrons know,that there cannot be bet
ter water in the state than the water fur
nished by the company now.
Now the Butler Water company have
decided to get more business if it is to be
had in the city, and in order to do that
have decided to meet the people who
wish to become patrons more than half
way. Heretofore it lias been a serious
thought that the people couldn't afford
to put the water in (not the expense of
the water), but the cost of connecting,
laying pipes, etc. If we can get from
fifty (50) to one hundred {100) rew con
sumers we will -make you this special
offer.
We will tap the main, insert the corp
oration cock, furnish and lay the pipe to
the side alk, furnish the side walk cock
• and shut off box, and in fact furnish all
labor and fittings to the curb line, where
a main passes the house, and sell the
same to you for the small sum of fifty
(50) cents.
It matters not whether you are on a
paved street or otherwise the expense is
no more to you. Where the expense
would ordinarily be from $lO to S3O we
make it to you now for 50 cents, provid
ing you are willing to sign a contract for
two years.
Don't be afraid to ask questions, the
Water company's employees will answer
them all to the"best of their ability.
