lids as could avail Themselves OF It's health restoring in
fuences- The reputation Of these waters has in
creased in the RAPID proportion with which they

Extensive experience for many years in the use Of
the White Sulphur Water, after having been long re-
moved from the spring and kept in bottles and barrels
has clearly and fully demonstrated that Il may be
transported any distance and kept for any desired
length Of time, without the slightest deterioration OF
medical virtues and efficiency. Aware OF this fact,
and anxious that the public might enjoy the use Of
this water, without the necessity OF visit TO the
SPRING. many physicians and others familiar with their
great efficacy, have for years, urged the owner OF the
Springs permit the water 10 be transported through
the country for general use. In compliance with these
solicitations, company has been recently formed TO
accomplish that object by boting and barreing the
water for general transportation. And they hope by

Water his been most celebrated and actively useful
are the following: Dyspepsia, liver complaints, bilious

the kidneys chronic inflammation of the bladder
gleet hemorrhoids or piles, hypochondrass low
spirits, dependent arrangements Of the stomach
and liver spasmodic affections, unattended with fever
water brasil fdarrh9a chronic dysentery, general
debility, unattended with acute disease. In chlorosis
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-
tracted or injudieious use Of mercury, and In the
secondary symptoms Of renerea disease often connect
ed with this peculiar state Of the system, the White
Sulphur Water has displayed its very happest effects

placed upon it. In cutaneous diseases, obstinate
erupions on the skim perhaps internal remedy can
be used advantageously In i'll condtoned ulcers its
curative effects have long been known and appre-
ciated.

cabllity of this water &c reference is made to the
