waters are much sought for. The Hath
 orn is widely known as a morning drink.
 Near all the springs are bottling houses,
 where for short time one may be in-
 terested in watching the bottling of the
 waters by process whereby all the nat
 ural gasses are retained. The waters of
 all the vast number of springs are me-
 dicinal and patrons do not think of that,
 but indulge freely at first without con- sulting physician. While a large num- Der drink the water under the doctors
 order, the majority do not and it is the
 fashion to enjoy an early morning walk to the springs. It is indeed amusing to l note stranger taking their first glass, as with much wrinkled face and shake | of the head, declares "that it is not the
 kind they like, forgetting that it is a | medicine and will not suit all cases. One l intending a visit to the spring to im- prove their health by the waters, had better interview physician first. When returning from the springs Congress
 Park proves fine resting place. Here 1 are heard exquisite strains of music fro ID
 some famous band, as they take a stroll
 through the beautiful grounds. Many
 noted singers are heard here on pleasant
 evenings while once a week pYrotech-
 nic display is given. A park always
 proves an attraction and when Judge
 his magnificent park to Saratoga it was
 an offer quickly taken advantage ot
 and much appreciated. The park con. tains 20 miles of drives and the scenery
 from the hills is very inspiring. It is al the upper terminus of North Broadway
 which street is lined with the summer
 homes of New Workers and Trojans be
 sides Saratogians. Judge Hilton's per
 fectly appointed home is in the centre 0.
 the park. At little distance from Con } vention hall, which in the last two year
 has become noted, and next to that il } the Pompeian house, whose colors yel low and red flash in the sunlight and to gether with the many hued flowers tha : grace the flat roof attract the eye. Or entering this house and viewing the diff ferent rooms and articles, one will i'm r agine themselves in that deep buriet city as they are here brought to notic : the many changing views. It is 8 re , production of 8 nobleman's house in tn . days of Panza. The cost of admission i l 50 cents and the time of remaining is no } limited. It proves not only an attraC , tion but is very instructive and recall , many sad scenes in connection witt that once famous city. WhiI } the tourist visits Saratoga

This spot has become ia } nous since the late lamented Grant died 3 It was his last earthly resting place an the house he occupies is kept in pertec condition as it once was. A first-clas 3 hotel, provided with an orchestra whicl , is composed of young ladies, proves delightful resting place, while a shor ) lstay is made at the Mount, and tn 3 hotel also accommodates large numbe ! of prominent guests who inhale tn : mountain breezes and view the charming , scenery. The ride to an from the noun } tain on little cars is an interesting one : At our fair summer resort the ladie r have ample time to display their elegen } costumes for to be in style one must b 3 costumed differently to attend the man,
 Iplaces of amusement. The early morn 7 ing toilette, the morning shopping, tn 7 dinner and race costumes being man. } handsome dresses to view, while tn : driving, park. and evening gowns ar marvels of beauty. Everyone of cours cannot be thus costumed, but there ar 3 those who can.
