Aug. 08, 1965 - Barbara Cartland purvey of pure water.: The Roman army, said Barbara Cartland firmly, thought very highly of her wild spring water. In foat, it was the Romans who first tapped the spring she now relies on for the pure water she is hoping to sell at 10d. a bottle. Said Miss Cartland: They did very well without artificial chemicals in their water. She was referring of course, to flouride the very threat of which implelled her to turn her gamearder into a bottling plant for pure water. But business is on the slow side at her home, Camfield Place, Essendon, Herts. Miss Cartland, 61-year old author and health food enthusiast, had to refuse the only order yesterday( for a dozen extra- large bottles at 35s). She explained; I simply have no containers I would trust British road services with. The prices barely pay for the bottles and delivery.In float, Miss Cartland rekons she will lose an order from places like Northumberland. She hopes business will pick up and offers as free subscription to a health magazine with all orders over ?3. But it may be that people want flouride in their water. Had the Romans susoected it strengthens teeth they would have filled Miss Cartland's spring with the stuff. Very self indulgent, they were.
