that resort has become famous, are founl

valeecents from acute diseases or from

restoring health and vigor.
Atlantic City, unlike most sea- shore re-

fact, the population of permanent residents
being about six Thousand, and the improve

In the way of street cars, gas, water, good
stores, markets, &C., that are enjoyed by
the resIleLtI OF larger cities.
Not only is the visitor surrounded by all
these advantages, but the frequent trains
and convenience Of access to and from
Philadelphia (being but ninety minutes
