were opened to the public, in February,
1887, than have been cured by any other
| hot springs, in the same time, on the con-
tinent of America. The cures that have
been effected by these waters have been
miraculous Men and women have
been brought here who looked to
| be beyond the reach of medical aid,
| have been restored to perfect health in a
| few weeks. There are parties here now
| who came on crucheS, and had to be
| helped in and out of the bath tubs, and
| in the space of four weeks every vestage
| of the disease had been eradicated from
| their system. so that they are now enjoy
\ ing perfect health.
