The HcaIthiest Spot on Earth.
Fine Mineral VVafeE-TEle Best
Place TO Spend the Spring
and Summer Months.

Southern Pines, Moore Co, N. C., is situa-
ted on a high sand mountain, and there are
several causes which go to make it the
healthiest spot on earth, and the very best
place TO stop ut during the spring and sum-
mer months. Its elevation above the sur
rounding section for more than one hundred
miles causes Il delightful breeze at all times
during the summer. Its location amid Il vast
forest of long leaf pines gives it an atmos-
phere which physicians of national reputation
say is the most healthful to be fOund in the
United States. The soil being a pure white
sand gives perfect drainage, and therefore
no form OF malaria can exist. The mineral
springs near by, issueing from a singular
medical store house bnilt by nature and curl
! ously situated in this sand mountain seems
as though the Creator intended this spot as a
place where mankind might rest and regain
health.
This place was first noted as IA winter
health resort, and thousands of persons from
the Northern States have come to it during
the past few years; and without o single ex-
ception they have been benefited. Daring
the past two unime it has been shown by
actual sest that those suffering from weak
ness of mind or b'dy can find greater relief
at this place than any other known resort.
DIR. Wild, au eminent physician of Connect
cut and editor of the New England Medical
Monthly, > has been investigating for the ben
eft of Northern physicians, and he says
southern zines is the best known place Tor
those who need rest and steep. He says the
first inclination one has is to sleep, and that
this rest, without the use of drugs, enables
the natural forces of the body to impart
siren 9Th to the diseased parts. Those suffer
ing from indigestion, rheumatism and all
blood disorders, nervousness caused by over
| work or any other cause, find relief and
health without taking medicine.
Visit Southern Pines and stop at the
Southern Pines House.
