OF course, city water costs you

in the end?
Puritas is pure, and inexpensive. too.
1t contains absolutely no impurity of

terial. To satisfy your thirst you have
a pure. sparkling water; to cleanse
your system you have water which
carries no contamination with it.
When you pay 40 cents for 1--WE gall
Ions of Puritas, you pay for the only
water obtainable hereabouts that has
been twice distilled and then 'aerated
with pure ozone. That 10 cents also
pays for absolutely sterile bottling

value received?" In that is your real
economy.
