From Dr. Wilson.
sFor the last twelve or thirteen years have rs
sided in the ncghborhood of the White Sulphur
Springs, and have hadsfequent opportunities: Of
observing the benefciaisfects of waters when. re-
moved from the spring;in bottles and barrels, -
The aatire properties Of this ,oater depend upon
the SALINE INGREDIENTS which it contains. In cor
roboration of tbi' opinion, state that have known
individuals in this place the water after it had
been kcptin barrels for twelve MONTHS and after il
appeared to have parted with all most Of its vola
tile properties, and that it acted US promptly and
efficiently as when used atthc spring. ~, -

From the Rev. Vim. S Plumer, D D. Editor Of
the Watchman of the South.
The Subscriber has had considerable opportunity
of testing the value Of the White Sulphur Water
when brought to Richmond. He has used it in his
famy the last summer ard the present, and is hap
py to be able to say, that has been as valuable IN
this way as visit to the fountain would probably
have BEEN. =

Richmond, 30lh June, 1910.
The same gentleman, in the "Watchman Of the
South" of tho 23I July, remarks. "The Editor Of
this paper las used the White Sulphur Water fIee-
ly, in his family, and has no doubt of its efficacy
being great in ordinary cases. Taking into con- 9
sderation the comforts of home, hewould, in ordi-
nary cases. prefer the use Of the .ter in casks to
visit TO the White Sulphur Springs. The
good effects of the ,nater Moughtss casks to Rieh-
mond hare been Dery manifest" la
