lids As could avail themselves OF il M
nuences. The reputation of these waters hAs m
creased in the rapid proportion with when they

sise and which annually induces thousands oil eager

moved from the spring. and kept in bottles and barrels
has clearly and fully demonstrated that u may DC
TRANSPORTED 10 any distance and kep< for any desired
length of tins without the slightest deterioration OF

and anxious that the public might enjoy the use OF

m The diseases for which the White Sulphur
Water has been most celebrated and actively useful
the following Dyspepsia liver complaints, bilious
state of the system, chronic rheumatism neuralgia,
properly called, and nervous affections generally,
cosiiveness aundice calculus, chronic affections OF
the Kidneys, chronic inflammation of the bladder,
gleet, hemorrhoids piles, hypochondriasis or low
spirits dependent on arrangements OF the stomach
and liver spasmodc Affections unattended with fever,
water brash ,sdarrhea chronic dysenery, general
debility unattended with acute disease In chloross
and other similar affections, peculiar to females this
water has almost invariably displayed most happy and
triumphant results. In that enfeebled and peculiar
condition of the system resulting from the long pro-
iracted injadieious Of mercury, and in the
secondary symptoms of reneredi disease often connect
ed with this peculiar state Of the system the White
Sulphur Water has displayed its very happiest effects.
In pIofuse salvation from mercury all reliance may be
placed upon it. In cutaneous diseases or obstinate
eruptions the skim perhaps internal remedy can
be used so adyantageously In condiiioned ulcers its
curative effects have long been known and appre-
ciaied.

resident physician at the springs and which will ge-
Morally be found in the hands Of the vendors Of the

medical men of the great efficacy of these waters il Is
thought unrlecessary insert more than the follow

upon the numerous nvalds resorting to that region
from every part of the United States. can declare
with great confidence the result of large share Of
experience that the most beneficial effects have arisen
from its use in various dyspepc depraves, in simple
and complicated disorders Of the liver in distractions
and other arrangements of the kidneys in aggravated
forms of cutancous Diseases and in other morbid de-
velopments the result Of constitutional local causes.
