are becoming quite noted for their
medical properties are about 20 miles
due south from St Anthony, the county

wagon road all the way with the excep.
ton of about three miles Just before
arriving at the Hotel de Heise this
being the only unpleasant part of the
trip. over this part of the road q
vehicle with a good break can pass
without any danger. IT is often said
however that good things are not
easily obtained, and a trip to the Hot
Springs will bear this saying for they
are grand to say the least
Not only are the baths delightful and
beneficial, but the accommodation and
metropolitan manner in which guests
are entertained at the hotel under the
able management of y. G. Heise the
proprietor, and his two daughters
Misses Blanche and Kate, receives the
