Pure Water.


The Importance of having better and more
healthful water for drinking and cooking
purposes is attracting the attention of all
who live in the more thickly settled portions
of this country.
1t is an established facts which is now
recognized and acknowledged by the we'll
germs taken into the system-most gener-
ally through the medium of drinking water
are the causes of such diseases as Asiatic
cholera, cholera morbus, typhoid fever,
scarlet fever, diphtheria, yellow fever, etc.
Scientists, physicians and inventors have
for wears combined to secure some means OF
extracting these and kindred impurities
from water without changing its chemical
properties. L. Pasteur, the great savant,
with the assistance of his associates, In his
laboratory in Paris, France, was the hrst
and only one to adopt practical means TO
accomplish this result, by inventing the
celebrated Pasteur germ-proof filter. This
invention has been in practical use In
Europe FOR three or four years, and in this
country for more than two years. 1t has
been subjected to the severest tests by
physicians, chemists and medical and Scien-
tifc associations, and has, in every case,
sustained its reputation of being perfect
water filter.
1t is the only filter that is sold on the
broad guarantee of furnishing water abso-
lutely free from disease germs, and all or
ganic matter held in suspension.

Our Own Make.

Our own MAKE.
There's only one sort to
compete with our Spring Suits
this season. If you want to
see such workmanship and
quality outside of our store,
the merchant tailors may have
it.
In like manner with the
Spring Overcoats. 1t would
be a threadbare statement to
say-They're the best. Well
say more. Whether you want
a luxurlously finished Over
sack or a palmer one with lots
of style in it, you'll find it at
Wanamakers.
The pink of style-we re-
peat: and, they fit. We say
that without qualification.
Get one from a tony tailor,
and it may be as good. It'll
be no better in any way.
But, here's the clincher.
It'll not be a Wanamaker
price. That statement will do
for the Suits, too.
Wanamaker's prices are
meant to fetch a big trade just
as our goods are meant to
fetch the brightest of buyers.
They're both doing it.
