COL. FULTON'S
STATEMENT
Samuel Morse Fulton Has
Given Out the Following
Statement.

"At the time Mr.. Pierce was last
in Nasville he made the statement
that the Tennessee Central Railroad
would not remain stationary. On
leaving for Europe and turning the
Craftsmanship of the board over,
he asked me, during his absence,
to fully study the question of a
western connection for the Tennes-
see Central. After looking over the
ground the different connections
that were possible, the extension of
the Burlington to Paducah was de-
cided upon and that seeming to offer
the best possible connection for the
Tennessee Central and all its inter-
ests, surveys were ordered between
Hopkinsville and Paducah to deter
mine the practicability of line be-
tween the points. When these sur
veys are completed they will be sub
mitted to the owners of the proper
ty and some definite action taken in
regard to the extension.

OWNERS OF BANK
STOCK HARD hit
0wensboro Men Must Give
Up Homes to Satisfy
Creditors Claims.

Owensboro, KY, Sept. Is. Ac-
cording to decision handed down
by Supreme Judge Walter Evans,
the stockholders of the bankrupt
Owensboro Bank & Trust company
will have to put up twice the amount
of their capital stock and reimburse
depositors in full. The capital stock
was 81 900, 00e and was squandered
by James Parrish, the bank presi
dent. The stockholders will many
of them be bankrupted by the de-
cision of the court, which is based
on a Kentucky statute making stock
holders liable for twice the par value
of their stock. Among the hardest
hit of the stockholders will be Z.
Rice, the wealthy tobacco manufac-
turer of Louisville. He will have to
produce about 100000. Large
blocks of the stock were held local
ly. Several prominent men of Ow-
ensboro and surrounding country
will have to sell their homes and be
reduced to poverty because of the
decision protecting the depositors.
On the other hand, many of the
smaller depositors who had put a
life's savings in the bank, will be
overjoyed to have their money re-
turned to them.

If YOU VALUE YOUR
HEALTH DRINK
PURE WATER
If You Live in Los Angeles,
Drink Puritas Distilled Water.
1t Is the Only Reliably Pure
Water Available Hereabouts.

In former days people paid relatively
little attention to purity in food. If it
looked pure, that was sufficient. They
did not go further.
In the last few years more attention
has been given to purity In foodstuffs.
And with the passage Of Pure Food
Laws, and the publicity given pure food
work, people have become educated on
the food question. The modern house.
keeper today is careful to serve only
pure food on her table.
She ought to be as careful to serve
pure drinking water.
Pure waters are seldom found in ma
ture. Natural waters usually contain
considerable amounts of impurities.
These impurities cause disease, di-
rectly or indirectly. AS a matter of
economy, if for no other reason, every
body should be careful to have a sup
ply Of pure drinking water constantly
at hand.
Puritas Distilled Water is the only
reliably pure drinking water obtainable
hereabouts. 1t is twice distilled, it is
aerated with pure ozone, it is bottled
in clean glass demijohns so carefully
that it reaches you with all its whole
some purity intact.
You can absolutely rely upon the
purity of Puritas Distilled Water. 1t is
pure-every denlijohn all the time.
Yet Puritas is inexpensive. Five gal
Ions cost but Acc. Just telephone US
Exchange 6, either telephone, and we
will see that you are supplied promptly
