 Gum Springs. This property could be made the site of fine Summer Hotel or Sanita- rum; has a frontage of 293 it., beautiful large shade trees; the air is cool and pleasant in the hottest summer days. Read what an OId-time physician said Of the water: "I have known and prescribed the Glen Springs water for twenty-five years with the most favorable results. It's diuretiC properties are remarkable. 1t is also laxative, affirmative and tonic. There is no more valuable water in the vicinity" Any of the older physicians, no doubt, viii say the same. The output of the springs is very large; it could be made fine shipping water.
 About 40 acres just north and close to Wilmington Ave-, between Maple, Linden and Myrtle Sts. This property is simply ideal for bungalow sites, with it's gentle elevations, ravines, fine shade trees and delightful CoOIneSs.
 The owner of the foregoing property is desrOus of selling his holdings in Hot Springs and returning to his home in the East. Will be glad to sell the various prop critics at satisfactory prices and terms.
