do; not so cold as in many places
however unusually cold with some
snow, but there Is such adiffer-

country in winter. We also have
such delightful summers, cool and
refreshing mountain air. No mala-
rim is known here, no water better
n whore than this grand pure
mountain water.
I often wish many OF my friends
there knew OF this fine climate
and sha. IL surely prolonged my
life. I had nervous dyspepsia, liv-
or and stomach trouble many years
In Missouri and Il seemed that i
could no longer endure the hot
summers there In Saline, so we
came hre especially for my health
nearly Q years ago for which we
car feel thankful. Change Of cli-
mate Is surely better than medicine
when taken In time. My husband
