Physicians
Endorse PuritaS
Hundreds of the Leading Medical
Men in Los Angeles Use Pu-
ritas Distilled w ater and
Recommend It in Their Prac-
tice.
This, in Itself, Is Ample Proof of
It's Purity and Healthfulness

If YOU have ever questioned in your
own mind whether you ought to drink
Purftas Distilled Water or not, you
would probably have received an at
firmatiVe answer from your own phy-
sician.
Hundreds of physicians here are
regular Puritas users. And some OF
them have used Puritas for years
They know how pure it is-how uni
formly dependable it is. And trained
men in this department of science
know full we'll how necessary pure
drinking water is to health.
You can keep. on drinking impure
water for a long time, perhaps, with
out feeling its effects. Some people
feel it sooner than others. All natural
waters hereabouts contain large
amounts of minerals. These are en-
tirely dissolved in the water, and no
mechanical device will free the water
from them.
These minerals cannot be assimilated
by the body. When mineralized water
is consumed the minerals become de-
posted in the arteries, a fertile cause
of rheumatic and kidney troubles.
Water often carries vegetable inn
purities as well-and disease germs
that act very quickly, if the system is
low in tone.
Why not get rid of the possibility of
illness from water drinking by having
a supply of healthful Puritas always
on hand?
We distiIl Puritas twice. We aerate
it with pure ozone. We bottle 1t in
clean glass demijohns so carefully that
it reaches you pure. We have had
years of experience in distilling water,
and you can rely upon Puritas month
in and month Quit is always pure.
Puritas is irexpensive-five gallons
cost but 40c delivered within the old
city boundary lines. At outside points
the cost is a trifle more, owing to the
long haul. Regular Puritas customers
purchase Coupon Books thus securing
the pure water at discount. Tele-
phone us about these when you order
Puritas-Home 10053; Sunset, Main
S191,
Puritas can be had through dealers
in most towns in Southern California.

society. The program was we'll Sc

was an excellent exposition of the
style of the modern French school.
Mrs. Ethel Lytle Boothe sang the solos
in this with excellent effect and the
chorus with organ accompaniment ex-
pressed the religious atmosphere of
the work in forceful and dramatic
manner.
Henry Balfour sang "Salve dimora,
from Faust, with his customary brill
lance. His voice showed great beauty
throughout this aria and the pianis-
smo of his high tones ELECTED appre-
tiative and enthusiastic applause. His
second number in the program was the
recitative and aria from Manon,
"Fuyez," sung for the first time here.
This made heavy dramatic require
ments upon the singer, but the method
MIR. Balfour uses enables him to meet
these demands with the same rare
quality of voice, and loveliness of tone
which has made him SO deservedly
popular here. He was recalled for
encore numbers after each solo. Kie
Julie Christian sang two contralto
solos with good effect and responded
to the ensuing applause with an en-
core number Mrs. Hennion Robinson
was at the piano, and Mrs. Ada Marsh
Chick at the organ.

DRAINAGE DISTRICT
WINS SUIT.
Judge Thurman Renders Verdict
Against Dewitt c. Blair
Et AL Monday.

The case of the State at the relation
of S. L. Coleman, ex-officio collector,
VS.. Dewitt C. Blair ct al, was heard
before Judge B. G. Thurman at
Nevada Monday, and verdict was
rendered in favor of the plaintiff.
The suit was brought for the pur-
pose Of collecting the first and second
assessments due on Drainage District
No. l, amounting to about 81, 700.
Suit was brought in Bates county,
but was taken to Vernon county on
change of venue.
Defense was made on the ground
of insufficiency of record and lack of
authority to make the assessment,
on the ground that this was in viola
ton Of the constitution of the State
and the constitution of the Uuited
| States.
Judge Thurman holds that there
was no irregularity in making the as
sessments and decreed that interests,
costs and attorneys fees should be
paid by defendants, which together
with the assessment will amount to
$500. An appeal will be taken by
defts.

macadamized, and this in spite Of the
fact that in many localities it is diff
cult to obtain the stone. While the
exact figures of the mileage of rock
roads in the county cannot be obtain
ed, such work is certainly worthy Of
mention. The fact that Bates county
is among the leading counties in the
building of permanent bridges, and
the additional fact that within the last
two years fifty automobiles have been
purchased in the county, might indi-
cate that Bates county's highways
receive considerable attention.
The STORY" also mentions ''the
acres that have been allowed to grow
up in weeds" Weeds will grow in
Bates county soil just the same as
they will grow in the soil of any
agricultural county in the state, but
when writer tells of the acres of
weeds on the farms in the county, it
would lead Bates county folks to be-
lieve that he had possibly mistaken
grass for weeds.

Judge CAN'T said, in part:
Gentlemen, we meet today in the
shadow of great bereavement. This
court has lost one of its most valuable
members, and the State, the members
of this court, his family and friends,
have sustained an almost irreparable
loss.
The Governor has appointed John
Kennish to succeed Judge Fox. He
is we'll known to the bar of the State,
and we feel assured that he will per-
form faithfully the duties of his Of
fice."

Judge Gavon D. Burgess will be

members of the court might have the
honor of acting as Chief Justice be-
fore their terms expire.

BATES COUNTY STILL
ON THE MAP.
In Spite of the Opinions of a
Correspondent to the
X. c. Times.

A STORY" on Bates county appear
ing in the Kansas City Times of Tues
day, purporting to have been written
by 'The Stars Own Correspondent"
attempts to show why the 1910 Gen.
sus shows a decrease in the popula-
ton of the county, and the Cor
respondent" incidentally goes out of
his way to give the county a black
eye in one or two instances.
Among other things, the writer
states the fact that 200, 600 acres be-
long to the Scullys, an Irish family
that owns tenant farms to the extent
of millions of acres in the country.
Most of the Scully holdings were
bought before 1900. Their farms are
rented to farmer tenants to 5 and 10
year periods, the tenants furnishing
the improvements. The influence Of
the Scully system has been against
really good farming"
This statement is an exaggeration.
The Scully estate owns less than 49,
600 acres in this county, and we are
informed by representatives of the
estate that 200, 900 acres will cover
the entire holding Of the Scully estate
in the United States. While the
Scully system would naturally pre-.
vent each farmer from owing the land
farms, it is unfair ito Estate that its
influence is against good farming, in
asmuch as the gentlemen in charge
of the estate were among the leaders
in the first general steps taken in
scientific crop rotation and soil con.
servation in the county, and every
Scully lease provides for crop rota.
