petite sits down to table loaded with such
good things to eat-as at the Park-and
can't eat, he's in awful misery. Flittie

am satisfied from what | can gather
from talking with the prominent persons
here-many OF them people of Unlimited
means who have Travelled all over the
World-that Hot Springs is fast becoming
the most popular winter, or rather spring
resort in the United States. The season
proper opens the last Of December and
continues till May. | am told it is not un-
comfortable in the summer, but it is not
advertised as a summer resort, except for
those who need the waters. NJ. II. j.
