ONO White sulphur Springs have so rival in the West,
and but few in the United states. The location is pecu-
thickness. through which the rivrr cits its way, sevcrv.
where either at or neaf the surface the groun.;s of the
estate are beautifully undulatcd, and interspersed with
numerous ravines which carry OH all the supertluous
water, thus rendering the soil dry ai,i the atmosphere
free from that humidity so prejudicial to health these
circumstances, taken IN connection with the attitude Of
the place, about / 900 feet above the ocean, make the 10
ciility as free from any maiaFious influences as a noun
tain region.
The Spring property consists of $40 acres of land, one
hundred of which Is covered by onc Of the most hrauti-
full groves in Ohio. This woodlond is handsomely laid oil
INTO walks and drives, one of the latter being two mics
in extent.
BATHS.

competition with that at naturally Warm and Hot Springs
The water Is heated in the bath tab by steam pipes the

it Is by this system applied To the surfoCc Of the bstlcT
