FACTS

WORTH NOTING

TANSAN is the Softest of all Drinking Waters

The stomach assimilates TANSAN in less time than is required to absorb any known Water, the significance of which faot must be apparent even to the layman.

TANSAN helps the stomach and strengthens the kidneys and it necessarily follows that TANSAN is an all important item of overy-day diot.

TANSAN is entirely free from the obnoxious taste peculiar to salted or other fabricated Waters.

TANSAN mixed with milk, wines, spirits, etc., neither impairs nor in any way alters, except to expand their respective natural flavors.

TANSAN, to the discriminating palate is, in every particular, the most satisfying and Choiceat of all Cholos Drinking Water.

Deep in the mountain side of Takaradzuka, Japan, the source

The flow is unvarying and superabundant-millions of gallons running to wasto annually.
