KERN TO BEAT B~EvERIDGE.
Endorsed by Democratic Convention
of Indiana at Indianapolis.


Indianapolis, Ind.-Two big Demo-
cratic bosses who have menaced In
diana with their ambition to repre-
sent the State in the United States
Senate, John E. Lamb, of Terre
Haute, of corporation fame, and
Thomas Taggart, gambling king of
West Baden, literally destroyed each
other in the State convention here.
The bitterness of their fight made it
possible for the Democratic party to
nominate John w. Kern, of Indian
apolis, a candidate for the United
States Senate. Kern was the party's
candidate for Vice-President in 1908.
The action means that Kern should
be elected to succeed Senator A. j.
Beveridge, provided the Democrats
have a majority in the next State
Legislature and that majority adheres
10 the Endorsement. The opposition
to the plan of indorsing a candidate
wanted a State primary to select a
nominee.

PuritaS Distilled Water
Better Than Any Spring Tonic


Users of Puritas aren't in need NJ
spring tonics. Puritas all through the
year acts as solvent and a cleanser
IN their systems, and leaves no trou-
blesome residue in veins or arteries.
Purltas users already have "tonic"
when spring comes.
Users of city water. mineral" wa
ters' and spring" waters are in diff
ferent case. For them sluegishness
in all their organs, rheumatism and
ike troubles are common. Nature re-
pels against retaining insoluble parti-
cles in veins and arteries. Puritas is
Natures first aida solvent for this
foreign matter.
There is really only one way of OBJ
tanning absolutely pure water-and that
is the Purltas" way. If this state
ment requires investigation-the proof
may be had rst-hand-scientifca
demonstrated at our plant.
Puritas Distilled Water undergoes
two Installations. Experience taught
us that two Installations are necessary
to remove all impurities. The mineral
matter left after one distillation is the
great factor in producing gout, kidney
trouble and rheumatism. 1t is easy to
estimate the harm of undistilled water
Puritas is aerated by a current of
electricity passed through purified air.
That is why Puritas hasn't the fiat"
insipid taste of ordinary distilled wa
ter. 1t has sparkle and zest-ls
refreshing, palatable water, as well as
healthful.
You will wonder at the low cost of Puritas
when you see the care and expense involved
in making Puritas perfect product-to be re-
lied upon for absolute, unvaryIng purity
throughout the year. Five gallons cost only 40
cents.

MOTHER WINS LAWSUIT
INSTITUTED BY HER SON
Mrs. Mary McCann Charged Un-
due Influence in Signing Away
Property Rights

Judge Conrey of the superior court
yesterday decided in favor of the de-
PENDANTS in two suits filed by William
F. Mccain against his mother and
brother, Mrs. Mary McCann and James
Mccain, Both complaints were in re-
gard to property which was claimed by
the plaintiff and defendants, consisting
of a double house and lot in the Elec-
trio Railway Homestead Association
tract.
One suit instituted by the son was
for the ejectment of his mother from
the residence, which she claimed by
right of possession. The other was a
suit to quiet title to the property, both
tried some weeks ago in Judge Conrey' S
court.
The plaintiff alleged he had agreed
to provide a home for his mother, and
for twenty years he claims she resided
in the home which the son alleges was
in his own name and which he MAIN
tanned. He alleged that his mother
made herself Objectionable by actions,
and he offered her $500 If she would
agree to leave the premises. She signed
the agreement, but in court declared
that her signature had been secured by
undue influence.
The son moved away from the home,
according to his story, and let the por-
ton of the double house he used to ten
ants. When the tenants moved out he
padlocked the premises so that his
mother would not secure the rest of the
place by right of possession. He al
ieges that she had the place broken
into, however, and even refused to al
low him to move his furniture.
The suit to quiet title followed, and
in giving Judgment Judge Conrey held
that defendant had signed the agree
ment to leave without knowing what
she was doing. His judgment gives
the double house to the defendant, but
the son says he will fight the case
through the courts to justify his action
in the matter
