Although the water of Bolar Spring had
never been analysed, it was but natural
to conclude that some Of the curative
properties found in the waters OF the
Hot Warm, and Headings Springs would
be present in this since it was found
along the same valley, and only about
twenty miles north. For a long time the
fact was known that marked medicinal
properties existed in the spring water,
and long before it's fame had broken the
limits of local lines, persons afflicted
with skin eruptions. catarrh, kidney
troubles, ETC., have been benefited and
cured in many instances. The worst
cases Of Scratches in horses have been
found to yield readily, and many sore
footed plug has spent lonely night,
tied to sapling, and standing knee-deep
in the stream that flowed from the foun-
tain.
FISHES CAN'T LIVE IN IT.
Fish could not live in the immediate
waters Of which the spring was a tribu-
tary, and, if put into the spring, their
eyes burst from their sockets and they
turned on their backs-"gone suckers.
When Mr.. Burns discovered the pres
ence of warm water on the Highland
side, believing that it contained similar
properties to the Bolar water just below,
he determined to procure an analysis Of
it before taking any steps toward the de-
velopment of the find The analysis
was only qualitative. and was made by
DR.. J. w. Mallet, Of the University Of
gallons Of the water direct from Mr..
Burns
REPORT OF DIR. WALLET.
The report from DR.. Adallet is very en-
couraging, and is as follows:
"The water IS quite clear-colorless when
seen in small quantities; of a faint
greenish-blue color when viewed in a coll
unnn of two feet in length-with no per-
ceptib1e smell or taste-slightly alkalin
to test-paper; after boiling and eoncen-
tration distinctly alkaline.
IS Analysis shows 1t to contain: Potas-
sum, sodium, lithiun. calcium. magne-
SUM, iron, manganese, aluminium, am
moniun chlorine. radical OF sulphuric
phosphoric,5 carbonic and silicic acid. with
doubtful traces Of stroutium and the radi-
cal Of nitric acid; a trace Of organic mat
ter. and In solution the gases oxygen
and nitrogen and carbon dioxfde.
a This water appears, jas far as can be
Judged from qualitative analysis. to re-
ssmble pretty closely that Of the Hot
Springs and Healing Springs, Of Bath
county. !" ssi
Mr.. Burns has arranged to have a
qualitative analysis made at once, and
will, S IN the meantime, make some exca-
vations to determine more fully the ex-
tent Of the flow.
The temperature of the water Is 7s de-
grees, six degrees colder than that OF
Healing Springs IN Bath. and "a few
degrees warmer than Bolar's.

spring have not been fully matured as

A WARM SPRING IN HIGHLAND.
Medicinal Waters Discovered by Mr..
Burns Near County Line.

MONTEREY, VA, September 2o-(spe-
cial)-This correspondent has previously
referred to the fact that two springs
Of warm water had been discovered near
the Bath-FIighland line, about one mile
north Of Bolar, the spring owned by Mrs.
McGufTin, of Bath county. This latest
and most promising discovery was made
on the land OF Mr.. J. H. Burns, the DIS
covery being due te the formation OF
peculiar moss along small creek from
the bank of which the warm water issues.

He had no grace if speech, this friend

So lame it was with pauses and gross

Yet somewhere in the lessons of the

He caught and Glove to one which made
men glad:
He said kind things, and knew all Ma
lures words,
And carried in his soul some sesame
Which made men brothers to all primal
forms.
The sweetness of the April roses breath,
The gladness of the low, green springlng

Had newer meaning, clearer words for US
When this OLD friend of mine held US In

No autumn coloring on any leaf.
No solitude of any hidden glade

No Virtue Of the brook which slaked our

His love was in the pauses of the wind.
Lay on the glory of the twilight cloud,
Subdued yet eloquent.
From thy high vantage place give me q
word,
A token ali is well and good and fair,
That devious paths but lead me where

Led thee a rosy way at whose clear end
Thou waitst for me with the gruff voice
And the old love Of Nature. Truth and
