SPECIAL NOTICES.
sUWANEE SPRING.

At Camden. N. j., they were discuss
ing the death of Hon. William ].
Sewell, United States Senator from
New Jersey, when DIR. Taylor, the
family physician, in speaking of the
senator's death this afternoon, said:
He would have probably lived many
years with diabetes had he not gone
abroad, but Carlsbad had always
helped him before, and it was there
that he went for relief again. 1t was
there that he contracted the pneu-
n1onia trouble, and this, with the dia-
betes he already had, resulted in a
complication that medical skill proved
unable to cope with"
Thereupon DR.. w. II. Morse, the
American director of the Bureau of
Materia Medica, said:
That meets my argument for Su-
vance Springs. I published a good
word for them five years ago, and
continue to maintain that in every
way the water is the equal of Carlsbad
or any other. The Springs are easy of
access, and the psychic influences of
change of scenery and climate are
wonderful. There are no chill winds to
cause pneumonia, and no malaria. My
advice is to send all patients with kid
ney troubles to Suwanee Springs, and
let Carlsbad take care of itself. Springs
equal in every way to the most aristo-
cratic in Europe need our apprecia-
ton, and they are. getting It."

The Park and Tree Commission.

Editor Morning News: Probably
every citizen OF Savannah recognizes
the fact that during the last few years
the streets and parks have been better
kept than ever before. Not only that,
but they have been beautified to de-
gree exciting the admiration of visit
ors.
Beyond question, a full share, to ex-
press it mildly, of the credit has been
due to the earnest and untiring efforts
of the chairman of the Park and Tree
Commission. Mr.. p. ID. Daffin.
1t is only natural that Mr.. Datfin
should feel an honest pride in the le-
suits of his work; it is only natural
and reasonable that he should desire
his fellow citizens to manifest some
apprecia ton of his otherwise unrcward-
ed labors And ii appears to me shat
it would be a manifestly ungracioLs
act, and one totally upcalled for. to re-
tire him from a position in which ha
desires to serve further.
There are few. if any, posses sing the
necessary qualifications, who would be
either willing or able to devote so much
gratuitous time and attention to the
service as Mr.. Daffin has cheerfully
done; no one can surpass him III the
deep and sincere interest he places In
the adequate performances of its du-
ties.
Why, then. should there ne any ques-
ton of replacing him by any other gem
tleman, no matter how well qualified
he may be? Colonial Park,
