ton University at Baltimore, and author OF one of
the best works on the use of Mineral Waters,
writes:
"That as a solvent of the uretic connections in

America. This solvent power is not claimed, that
am aware of, in behalf Of any other mineral water
or medical agent"

ical journal, gives his experience and observations
| in the use of the Gettysburg Water as follows:
| "My own experience in the therapeutical value of

the removal of impotence in the last named re
marks:
THUS far have confined myself in iis admins
tration TO cases OF chronic rheumatism, govt, and
diseases of the kidneys and bladder being guided
in great measure by the effects produced during
the proving by DIR. Herring. | am, however, per
fectly satisfied from the strictly alkaline character
| of the water and the soda, magnesia, and lime
with which the lithii is combined that most prove
| signay 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 pers on as
well as others, we state that the Getty burg
Water is regulator at all the sccretons and y
cretons under its influence the kidneys and liver
the glands OF the intestinal canal and the skim all
perform their normal functions; the bowels, if
stipated, become regular; the skin, il dry, becomes
moist the torpid liver is excited to healthy action
and the kidneys perform their funr tions with per.
feet regularity. There is IA total abstinence of any
disagreeable sensations whatever; the ris medici-
trir seems reused to increased activity and all
bid causes of bodily or even disorder seem rapidly
TO pass away. The result is: Increased appetite
and digestion, freer circulation, stronger pulse,
IA calmer mind, more tranquil sleep, a clearer
complexion, and an increasing nervous and mus
cular power"
