Buffalo water seems to be specially adapted
to the cure OF dyspepsia, and we keep re-
ceiving dyspeptic additions all the time.
What, however, strikes me as singular about
these afflicted people is that they all seem
fond of hot bread. Now, Mr.. Dispatch, ]
amt medico, but my experience of the
world has been somewhat extensive, and |
venture to say that in every country where
hot bread is the fashion, there the horrible
fend dyspepsia is rampant. Virginians are
"verily guilty.. in this respect, and i submit
that it is not giving Buffalo or any other
water fair chance to be feeding and shaking
disease at the same time. Considering how
careless as to diet dyspeptics are, I wonder
these waters prove as highly curative as
they do. n5 ,lit
Colonel Saunders, of the Wilmington
Daily Journal, is still quafting lithia, and
steadily improving in health thereon. The
Colonel has become SO entirely absorbed in
his surroundings at the Springs that he says
he seems to have forgotten that he ever lived
before or will have to exist after his stay at
Buffalo. ,5a 4eg@ Lu8.
The visitors who are coming in from the
mountains pay very high compliments to
Colonel Goodies management Of these
springs. 1t is generally admitted that the
bill of fare at this place has been far ahead of
the dieting elsewhere. Colonel Goode has
also been highly successful in the selection
of his corps of assistants, and all the arrange
ments appear to have worked like clock
work. 81. a.,41"
DR.. Mckee, the eminent physcian.of Ra-
