One of the principal reasons Civ
en- by an eminent physician for the
excellent health enjoyed by the

properties in the artesian water
which is used for domestic pur-
poses. A recent analysis of water

the following ingredients.

Magnesia -. So :"
Sulphuric Acid 81 J"
Chlorides ..............1.4
Oxide of Iron
and Aluminium O.6
Total Solids 27.5 = $
This same physician in letter
to Secretary F. w. Scott has the
following to say regarding the diff
1erenC lngfeQen5S:
Calcium or lime, especially cal
cium phosphate, is a most import
ant constituent of bones and it is
necessary that food should contain
it.
Megnesia, especially magnesia
salts, is a sedative to the stomach
and an alkaline purgative. 1t serv-
es to keep uric acid in solution and
acts on the kidneys. 1t is largely
used for varities of constipation
that are associated with liver
troubles, govt and rheumatism.
Sulphuric acid preserves in the
intestines its astringent action and
increases the amount of bile poured
out into the intestinal canal and is
therefore fine liver tonic.
The chemist does not state whas
chlorfdes but no bad effects could
come from any of the numerous
ones that are found in mineral
waters.
Oxides of Iron and aluminium are
ueed to restore the red corpuscles
to the blood and are used in nearly
all general tonios.
