SNEEDVILLE.

ITS DESIRABLENESS As A SUMMER RE
soRT-PURE MOUNTAIN AIR AM
VARIETY OF MINERAL WATERS
CAPITAL AND INDUSTRY ALL THAT
Is NOW WANTED.
The Importance Of this place as q
health resort is not duly appreciated
Indeed its inaccessibility has hither-
to prevented its being widely known.
1t is only small mountain town,
the county site of Hancock county,
and is situated tWenty-six miles
north of Morristown. The approach
es to the place are over mountains
that are not insurmountable - the
roads being OF tolerablc easy grade /;
but It's only after the place is seen
that the health seeker realizes what
he has gained by the fatiguing ride.
1t is situated in q picturesque glen,
almost, and apparently, altogether
surrounded by mountains. But it's
peculiar advantages in a hygienic
point of view, consist in the purity
of the atmosphere and the remarka-
bic excellence of its mineral waters.
It's altitude-its consequently excel
lent drainage-and its contiguity to
high mountains, render it especially
free from malaria and all diseases
produced by that cause.
In praise Of the different kinds of
water, much could be said, did space
permit. Within a radius of half a
mile may be found six different kinds
of excellent water. So far as We
know, no correct analysis Of these
Springs has ever been made; but
each different kind of water is dis
tinctiYe enough in its taste and the
appearance OF its deposit, to deter
mine its most abundant properties.
First, there is the White Sulphur
Spring-most excellent water of its
kind then the Epson Well, the salt
in which is so abundant as to chrys-
talizc on twigs, if allowed to remain
in the water for some time. Next
in order is the Alum Well, (Bi-Sul-
phate Of Alumnia and Potassa), very
strong, and used with great success
in cases of chronic diarrhGa and dys-
intery. Then comes the Chalybeate
water, in several springs and one
we'll, from the strongest to the weak
est. This water is unrivaled as n
tonic in general debility, arising from
almost any cause. There arc also
excellent springs Of Freestone and
Limestone. All these kinds of wa
ter are clear and cold-conditions
very inviting to the thirsty.
Inaccessibility to market makes
the price of living low. Good board
can be had in private families at
from three to four dollars per week.
If capital and enterprise were
properly applied in means Of easy
conveyance, and in disseminating
knowledge of the whereabouts and
the valuable properties of these wa
ters. it would confer a benefit on
many of the afflicted, and profit on
the investment. I. Il. G.

U Under the new postal law,
which allows four pounds or mer-
chandise to go through the mails for
thirty two cents, the forwarding OF
samples. instruments etc, by mail
has been largely increased. The
highest postal rate for four pounds
is about as low as that OF the express
companies to near points, and much
lower than express rates to moro dis
tant parts of the country.

Castor Oil Pills.

The safety and certainty of action of Castor Oil,
for both children and adults, has made it at all
times popular, because it is a reliable medicine :;
THE ONLY OBJECTION
to Its constant is the difficulty OF administering
il to children and Its nauseousness to adults. Both
these objections are now entirely overcome. The
PROPRIETOR by the application of the principles of
chemistry, aided by careful manipulation and
long practical experience, has at length succeeded
in accurately combining,
IN A SOLUBLE FORM,
all the medicinal elements of Castor Oil with other
harmless but valuable vegetable products. These
Pills. being coated with sugar, Will be found easy
and pleasant to take, and as they contain neither
mercury nor minerals in any form, are a very safe
medicine in all where purgatives required,
such as
Bilious Disorders,
SICK HEADACHE AND FOULNESS OF THE
STOMACH.
IIabtual Costiveness and Piles,
DiarrhUa or LoOseness of the Bowels
