The water from her Artesian Magnetic Sulphur Well is proving to have no equal on the face of the earth for . the relief of - suffering humanity. Its success already bears the testimony too convincing for mortal man to doubt anything claimed of if. What is it good for? Rheumatism, Dyspepsia, Gout, any derangement of the stomach, Bowels, Liver, Kidneys ant. l1 enisle diseases ot wnicli thousands are dying yearly for waut of proper treatment. Already hundreds have been cun;d and none have tried it but what have been benefitted. A large and elegant bath house with modern appliances has just been completed, and baths of the Magnetic water hot or cold or of any temperature may be bad at all hours. The best of hotel accommodations may be had, within easy access, at very reasonable rates, or board in private families can be had also." To those suffering from physical disorders we ssy come and be healed, at much less expense than it will cost at any other resort. For further particulars address IV. M. Dobbins, President. H. F.
