ARTESIAN VS.. WELLWA WATER.

A well known physician made use
of the following remarks in our pres
cncc a few days ago: "Thc time will
come when it will be considered ~
much ofa disgrace to have typhoid
fever rs it is now considered dis
grace to have Il case of itch" And
We believe he echoes the sentiments
of many in his profession who, in
their thoughts follow the trend of the
times. The only pure water is that
from, artcSian wells or that collected
