Do You Think Water Bad?
Reporter Says 1t Is Not


In all other things this patient is a
booster for his home city. 1t is the
best in the world-if it were not he
would move and he has been here for
the past seven years. He Is proud OF
his town. OF its streets. He is satisfied
to spin about over them in his car
which Tulsa business has purchased
for him. He is satisfied with all other
cunveniences which have been placed
at his very doorstep. But the city
water-well he has been here seven
years. as he explained, and he heard
the water was bad before he came
here. so he has been using bottled
water ever since.
Where did the disease first attack
him? A pertinent question but one
which should. injustice to the patient,
be answered.
He was living In another Oklahoma
city before his oil interests brought
him to the oil metropolis. He had
read in the papers of that rival city
of the skeletons, sun-perch, horseshoes
and other knickknacks which were
to be found in a pail of drinking
water. When he camo here he was
busy with his oil interests, and IN
fairness to the water he will admit
that he never did make an examina-
tion to find out II the stories he had
read were true.
Case Almost Hopeless.
The disease bit deeper and deeper
into his system, and now he is almost
hopeless case. He may get well,
but it is beyond the individual power
of his associates. His disease cannot
be cured in spite of the patient.
What ails this man ails several OF
our local institutions which were built
with Tulsa money, and which were
built to show that Tulsa was awake IL
all opportunities for advancement.
Several OF these institutions, especi-
ally public in nature. boast that they
derive their water for drinking and
bathing purposes-even that used in
! the natatorium, from wells. This Ii
boast by some interested in the In
| stitutions, but il is q reflection on the
city, and In two notable instances Is
an untruth. In these instances the
water which is said to be taken from
well is the same that is being sen'
| thru the water mains of the city-anC
is quantity OF II and of the sam,
| quality.
Thousands bathe in 1t daily and de.
better would it be to inform thest
people that by turning the little
enamel faucet in their own bathroom
they could secure an abundance of the
same water II would be prevents

Mos Common Of Bodily ms.

By far the most common of bodily
ills is constipation. The usual cause
is the indifference of many people to
Natures call. The inclination is not
needed, or it is put off until a more
convenient time. When this is done
repeatedly, constipation Is almost
sure to follow. 1t is of the utmost i'm
portance that everyone establish
certain time for the bowels to move
each day and let nothing interfere
with it. When that is done and prop
erfood and exercise are taken and
an abundance Of drinking water, the
bowels are not likely to give much
trouble When a laxative is required
take Chamberlains Tablets. They are
mild and gentle, easy to take and
agreeable in effffect.-Adv.
