Famous Springs at Deer Park.

A million and half gallons of the
pureSt water on earth, is the daily out
put of the famous Boiling Springs in Gar
rett county, Maryland. In order that
nothing can contaminate the Springs,
one hundred acres of land surrounding
it are fenced in. In addition, a wire
building covers the Springs, so that
leaves cannot fall into the water. 1t is
from these extraordinary Springs that
Deer Park Hotel receives its water sup
ply, the water being piped direct to the
hotel. The medical fraternity now con-
cede that in the matter of health, the
question of pure water stands at the head
and front. No summer resort combines
so many healthful features. The air is
wonderfully pure and invigorating cool
nights, with absolutely no mosquitoes /;
the finest cuisine, with perfect sanitary
arrangements, makes Deer Park Hotel
the ideal resort.

We think civil service is here to stay

OUR friend Prof. John A. Myers,
formerly director of the West Virginia
Agricultural Experimental Station at
Morgantown, has recently gone to
some little trouble to expose "Prof. "
T. c. Atkeson as a stupid and bare
faced plagiarist, and by means of the
deadly parallel columns shows how
prof Atkeson has stolen and APP
propriated as his own not only the
ideas but the very language of others.
So far as Mr.. Atkeson is concerned
this is an old trick Of his, and is hard
ly worth mentioning because Of the
little attention it would attract or the
small influence it would have. But as
he was recently, for some reason or
other, chosen by the board Of regents
as dean of the agricultural college of
our State University, his conduct as a
public official, of course, is bound to
be observed and commented upon. We
advise Mr.. Atkeson to be less volumi-
nous in his writing. The world will
not be the loser, and he will by this
course be less liable to be caught in
the very small practice of pilfering
other persons products.
