Natural Waters
Alkaline
Streams of Southern California
Carry Large Amounts of
Mineral Impurities

Perhaps you have noticed that most
natural waters in Southern California are
"hard" waters. They do not seem to quench
the thirst, someway-some of them are even
slightly 'brackish" to the taste
Our city water Is exception to this,
and, like others. the quality is duo to the
presence of considerable amounts of MINER
ais in the water.
1t is easy to see where these minerals
come from. The streams flow through soil
that contain alkali. 1t becomes dissolved in
the water, and by the time they reach the
point of diversion whore the water is taken
for drinking purposes, II Is impregnated
with this thoroughly dissolved mineral mat
ter. No filter or other mechanical device
will free water from any matter that is
entirely dissolved In 1t. Such matter be-
comes a part of the water--Just sugar
or salt dissolved in water becomes part
of it.
That is why mechanical devices are use
less-they do not do the work. Tests Will
prove this to your satisfaction. Indeed,
many of them do not even free the water
from its vegetable impurities.
Distillation is the only sure. safe method
Of purifying water. Distillation. roughly
speaking, is turning water into steam and
condensng the steam into water again.
Under great heat the water turns into steam
"a gas. The alkaline and other impurities
in the water are then deposited as solids In
the boiler The steam Is the pure part of
the water. and by condensing it absolutely
pure water is secured
This, generally speaking. is our method
of distlnng Puritas Distilled Water. How
ever, we find 1t necessary to distill 1t twice
in order to secure absolutely pure pro-
duct.
After distilation Puritas is aerated with
pure ozone-secured by passing a current Of
electricity through filtered air.
The pure, distilled, ozonated water Is
then bottled in clean glass demijohns We
even wrap the corks in foil In order that
the outer air, altering through a porous
cork may not contaminate the pure water
within.
II yvu want pure wholesome healthful
drinking water, order Purltas 1t is just as
essential to the, family health pure,
wholesome food.
1t is most inexpensive to use-Five gal
Ions cost but 40c. delivered within the old
city boundary lines. outside that district
the cost is trihe more. owing to the long
haul Regular Puritas customers purchase
coupon books. thereby securing the water at
a discount.
