THAT as solvent of the uretic connections in
rheumat m and govt it promises to take high
rank among the medicinal springs Of Europe and
America This solvent power is not claimed, that

or medical agent"
a correspondent ofthe Boston Medical and Surg
cal Journal, gives his experience and observations
in the of the Gettysburg Water as fellows
"My own experience in the therapeutlcal value OF
the Gettysburg Water enables me to speak of its
usefulness in that most troublesome variety Of dys
pepsia, the colonic, also, i'll hematuria and abdom
inal dropsy. In two OF the latter disease it
neys after the usual diuretics had failed to do any
good. In the diarih9al stage of cholera infantum,
when given in dose of a tablespoonful at stated
intervals, it will sometimes diminish and almost
rest the intestinal discharges, and alter beneficial

"Thus far have confined myself in its admins
tration To cases of chronic rheumatism, govt and
diseases of the kidneys and bladder being guided
in a great measure by the effects produced during
the proving by Dr. Herring. l am, however, per
fectly satisfied from the strictly alkaline character
with which the lithia is combined that it prove
signaily curative in different forms of dyspepsia,
diseases OF the liver, stomach and bowels"
The New York Medical Record, in an Editorial
on the Gettysburg Catalysine Water, says
"From experiments made on our own person as
we'll as others, we can state that the Gettysburg
Water is Il regulator OF all the secretOns and
c.etons; under its influence the kidneys and liver,
the glands OF the intestinal canal and the skin, all
perform their normal functions; the bowels, if con-
stlpateu become regllar the skin, il dry, becomes
moist; the torpid liver is excited to healthy action,
and the kidneys perform their fun tons with per-
feet regularity. There is total abstinence of any
disasreeable sensations whatever the tie medica-
fir seems reused TO ncreas ed activity, and all NOR
bid causes of bodily even disorder seem rapidly
to pass away. The result is: Increased appetite
and digestion, freer circulation stronger pulse,
a calmer mind, more tranquil sleep, u clearer
complexion, and an increasing nervous and mus
cular power"
