1uences. The reputation of these waters has in

and anxious that the public might enjoy the use Of
this water, without the necessity of visit 10 the
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 springs the advantage Of using its healing waters
at his home, and by bringing within the reach Of
ALL this pleasant and health giving beverage, that they
