intellectually.

OUR WATER SUPPLY.
The Arkansas River in Some Of Its
Unattractive Phases

The Arkansas river is the source of all
the ordinary water supply of Wichita.
Its source is several hundred miles away
and asiue from the fact that it receives
the sewerage of all the towns along its
bank from Leadville down, and is the
general dumping ground for all the filth
to be disposed of along its course, it runs
through many beds of lime with which
its waters become loaded rendering it
very hard before il reaches here. 1t is
this hardness of the water which is play
ing havoc with the health of our citi-
Zens. 1t is the cause of nearly all of
the kidney. stomach, nerve and blood
diseases, prominent among which are
Bright's disease, diabetes, backache, stone
in the kidneys, stone in the bladder,
bloating. indigestion, sour stomach. collie,
constipation, appendicitis, loss OF appe-
tite irritability, languOri headache, rheu-
matism. growing pains In children, lum-
bago, catarrh, saIlowness, blotches, stiff
ness, the troubles peculiar to women, pre-
mature old age and early decay.

thoroughly aerated, possesses the power
