EXPOSITION PROCLAMATION.
City of Savannah,
Mayors Office, April 1, 1902


To the People of Savannah:
Wednesday, April is. has been set
aside by the managers of the South
Carolina and West India Exposition at
Charleston as Savannah Day. In
view of the strong personal relations
that exist between the people of the
two cities, their large business inter-
couse, and the kindly sentiments that
have always prevailed between the
communities, it is desired that Savan-
nah give evidence of its appreciation of
the efforts of the exposition to adver-
tise the South and promote its trade
interests, through this exposition, by
making Savannah Day one of the
greatest If not the very greatest, of
the special occasions provided for by
the managers.
To this end arrangements have been
made with the Plant System for special
rates of 81 for the round trip, good for
three days, and ample facilities will
be afforded by that company for the
safe and speedy transportation Of as
many thousands as may desire to visit
Charleston. 1t is hoped that the peo-
pie of Savannah will generally avail
themselves of this opportunity to en-
joy the pleasures and benefits of the
exposition and at the same time give
practical form to their Endorsement of
the labors of it's managers in behalf of
the South and of their brotherly love
for their sister city of South Carolina.
HERMAN MYERS, Mayor.
Attest: WIN. P. BAILEY, Clerk of
Council.

THE BEAUTIFUL VILLAGE
of
BONA BELLA.


The splendid property known as
Bona Bella, on the Trolley line between
Thunderbolt and Isle of Hope, is justly
considered one of the prettiest pieces
of woodland in this country.
1t is natural park, shaded by fine
specimens of oak, hickory and walnut,
with sufficient sprinkling of pine to
give variety, and add it's peculiar prop
critics to the air.
This land has been sought after by
spectators, but has been held in its
entirety until now, when the owner
has consented to subdivide it into villa
lots, giving to each the space, impos-
sible to be obtained in the crowded
city.
Situated on the Herb River, with the
Trolley line passing through it, thus
securing rapid and certain transporta-
ton to the city, it is an ideal spot for
suburban residences.
LaRoche avenue, the beautiful drive
to Isle of Hope, which is to be shelled
also passes through the land, affording
bicyclsts and the owners of teams an
exceedingly pleasant means of reaching
this land.
The prices of these villa lots have
been so rated as to ensure rapid settle
ments. This policy will be adhered to
until twenty lots have been sold.
The plat can be seen at my Office, %
Congress, west. C. Fl. DORSETT.

sUwANEE SPRINGS WATER.


SUWANEE SPRINGS WATER.
Our agent in New York city obtained
the following:
Report of DR.. Cook, Surgeon Bellevue
Hospital Fourth Surgeons Division
Peter Doyle, Patient.
Upon admission the patient was
found to be suffering from chronic cys-
tits with large quantities of pus and
some blood in his urine. He also had an
enlarged PROSTATE. and he was unable
to completely empty his bladder.
He was placed upon Suwanee Springs
Water in conjunction with washing out
of his bladder, and at the end of two
weeks a surprising change was no.
ticed and the enlargement of the pros
trate was so nearly overcome that he
could entirely empty his bladder at his
own volition.
He was discharged from the ward at
the end of three weeks with his urine
perfectly clear, and could pass an en-
tire night without urinating.
The result was quite surprising to
all.
AND YET ANOTHER-READ THIS.
Report of DIR. Cook, Bellevue Hospital,
Fourth Surgeons Division-Patient,
VIM. Crowley.
Patient came in hospital suffering
from chronic nephritis (Bright's dis
easel. His urine showed both granular
and hyaline casts and some pus and
blood cells. The usual remedies were
used, but with little benefit; he was
placed on Suwanee Springs Water in
doses of so OF. per day, and at the end
of two weeks an appreciable improve
ment was noticed. This treatment was
continued for eight weeks, at the end
of which time no casts could be found
under microscopic examination, and
the specific gravity had increased eight
points from 1908. Patient was discharg-
ed at his own urgent request, appar-
emily well. The water has been tried
in several other cases of cystitis with
uniform results.
Mr.. Packard, a guest Of Suwanee
when the above report was received,
voluntarily wrote the following to DIR.
Cook with whom he was acquainted)
to satisfy few of our guests who were
rather skeptical. Note the reply:
Bellevue Hospital, March 10, 1894.
My Dear Mr.. Packard-I was some
what surprised to find my cases re-
ported so far away from home, and /
am happy to say that they are genuine.
have used quite a quantity of the
water and found it beneficial to a de-
gree in all cases. / think that it will
finally be used almost entirely in Just
such cases as the one you sent me. Mrs.
Lewis has spoken to me about your
case, and shall take great interest in
the result.
1 certainly think you can do bet
ter than to stay at the Springs, use
plenty of the water, and take plenty of
exercise, hoping that our acquaintance
will not be always confined to paper.
l am, yours sincerely,
A. H. COOK, NJ. D.
