HE OHIO WHITE SULPHUR STRINGS The an.
nual meeting of the Ohio State Medical Society
takes place at the Springs on the 18th, l7sh and
18th instant. The opening party of the season
will come of on the evening of the 18th, at
which many of the wives and daughters of the
members of the Society are expected to be pre-
sent, as we'll a. other gentlemen and ladies
from different portions Of the State. We have
nc doubt gay and brilliant time may be conf.
dently looked for.
Mr. Wilson has made preparations to conduct
the Springs this summer In style unsurpassed
by any previous season; an assurance that will
be readily accepted by those who have had on ex-
perimcntal knowledge of his enterprise, sffabill-
ty' and concern for the welfare of bis guests,
during the seasons that the Springs have been
under his person al supervision. We trust that
his efforts will meet with a liberal response
from his numerous friends and former patrons.
The White Sulphur is the only summer resort
In the Wet where frst-clsss apartment and table
accommodations are to had, which people who
aoLsult their health and comfort regard a. moro
important than beauties Of natural scenery with
out them; while to the young and gay II is the
only one which presents facilities for general
amusements, with the attractions of commo-
dious saloon, with full band, for nightly hops
a1d other entertainments.
