Hcnator Vnre announced today he opposed any legislation at this time to change the form of the Philadelphia city Council. The senator's statement place him In opposition both to the Mayor's pro nosal that the term ot half the mem bershtp of Council be increased by two years, and also the suggestion of Rep resentative Dunn, chairman of the Philadelphia delegation, which would rip the present Council out of office and protlde for a Council of forty one, the members to be elected by legislative instead of senatorial district. "Unless the Mayor can bring stronger arguments to bear in support of his plan,' said Senator Vare. "I am opposed to it. As I understand it, the Mayor's Idea is that the lengthening of the terms of half the members will make for continuity of councilmanlc policy and continue in tbe service ot the next administration men who have had experience in the present Council. "Tho answer to that is that just 'as the members of tbe present Council were largely selected from among men who served In the old two-chambered Councils, so alto will members ot the next small. city Council be selected from among experienced members of the present Council. "Fifteen of the present, city council men served in the old Councils and two or three more had experience nt liar rlsburg."

Mrkt stre.t "You Don't Drink Enough Water!" Physicians say that very few people drink cnoueh water. The older you arc, the sreater the need for more water. Water is more than a thirst-quencher it is phy siologically a fitd a rtguUttHZ food for cleansing and purifying the whole human system. If it is important to drink nttvb water, it is doubly important to drinkt water. A really pure water is: first, that which contains no animal or vegetable matter (with their accompanying disease germs;) standi, that which contains no appreci able mineral salts, such as lime. And no public supply meets such a standard of purity. V 1 adise Water is unequalled in purity. It contains no insanitary matter, and less than one grain of mineral matter in a gallon of 58,372 grains! Paradise Water is, therefore, highly solvent; it has the power of absorbing the poisonous wastes of the human system, tuAfkahmztfitmeut. The constant and plentiful use of Paradise Water greatly facilitates the normal func tioning of all organs, especially the stom ach, intestines and kidneys. With the latter, this is vital for people beyond middle life, by tending to ward off hard ening of the arteries. Put up in quarts, pints and half-pints. Natural or Carbonated. Try a case.
