CURED in the prevention and Of diseases and
pleasant and wholesome beverage has long rendered

nuences The reputation of these waters has in
creased in the same rapid proportion with which they

Extensive experience for many years in the of
the White Sulphur Water, after having been long
moved from the spring and kept in bottles and barrels,
has clearly and fully demonstrated that may be
transported TO any distance and kept for any desired
length of time without the slightest deterioration of

and anxious that the public might enjoy the use of

Springs many physicians and others familiar with their
great efficacy have for years urged the owner of the
Springs TO permit the water TO be transported through
the country for general use Ia compliance with these
solicitations company has been recently formed to
accomplish that object by botng and barrcling the
water for general transportation. And they hope, by
thus extending 10 the Naletunarlan VINO cannot reacn
