Uses of Mineral Waters


Mineral waters, as to their sources, are
OF two classes, the imported and the
domestic. AS TO their nature, they are
artificial or natural. Not all of the best
waters will bear expectation, or even long
keeping in stock. Many of them throw
down their mineral constituents and
decompose when exported in wood and
even in glass not few of them become
inert by keeping. The waters that are
the most strongly mineraliled, especially
those that are the most fully charged
with carbonic acid gas, bear expectation
tho best. Those of weaker constitution,
like some delicate individuals and some
delicate wines, do not stand IA sea voyage.
sold books to read, old wood to burn,
old wine to drink, old friends to talk
to-" but no old mineral waters for a cure.
Some physicians hold, indeed, that all
mineral waters begin to lose their virtues
as soon as they leave the spring. This is
an extreme view; it is quite unproven of
some of the best waters. yet most of them
are elective in proportion to their fresh
ness. The best importing houses aim,
very properly, to keep little stock on
hand, in order that il may be fresh. We
have full list of excellent mineral
waters to choose from, whether native or
imported, whether natural or manu-.
factured, whether medicinal waters or
table waters. | can not say too much for
good table water, meaning by this a
drinking water that is % but slightly
mlncraliled, that is 90 charged more or
less freely with carbonic acid gas, and
CD that IS absolutely pure, hygierically
speaking. Such waters are the Apolli-
naris, the tlysmic, tho Giesshubel, the
Poland Silica, the Underwood Spring
Water, and many others. The Nichy,
Setter, and Saratoga waters, though
more strongly medicinal. are used as
table waters by many. The appetizng
and digestive qualities of all the waters
just named are well known, and their
pleasant flavor and sparkle; in many
cases of impaired digestion have found
nothing more useful than they. and |
regard them as useful in chronic diseases
when impaired nutrition is main
feature. Pure sodawater more properly
called carbonated water, whether natural
or manufactured, is IA powerful aid to
digestion by stimulating the stomach,
and also, probably, by aiding to dis
solve the mineral ingredients of the
food. 1t is very appetizng; it corrects
acidity in the stomach, checks the dis
position To nausea and cools the system
in febrile complaints; it lessons the desire
for spirituous liquors, and is indeed the
ideal beverage for the water.drinker.
provided always that pure water is used
in its preparation. The consumption of
table waters in this country increases
probably about 10 per cent. per year;
that of medicinal water has nearly
doubled since 1880. Table waters
prepared from distilled waters, as they
should be, have the great advantage that
they can not carry the germs of disease.
