The desire for a change of scene is often so strong with the Americans that the change is made sometimes' without real gain of benefit. To be i able to mention and recommend a j place is therefore a pleasure as well as a privilege and duty. A place that may be recoin mended conscientiously to sick and well alike* is Cambridge Springs, I’a. The growth of the knowledge that waters medicated by nature are unfailing specifics for many diseases has been very general within the last few years and the verdict of scores of physicians and hundreds of laymen is that the most meritorious springs of all are Cambridge Springs Pa. The result, briefly stated, that have caused this verdict are that the Cambridge waters are a specific for a larger list of serious diseases than any other waters. In addition, they are pleasant to driuk and bathe in. They cure rheumatism, gout and uric acid conditions arising therefrom; and while Cambridge Springs is first and foremost a health restoring resort it is also a charming pleasure resort. It has no “closed” season in fact, it is alwaysopenand lite there is a genuine pleasure at all times. Many good hotels (one, a half million dollar palace) answer the needs and desires of discriminating people. Golf riding walking, hunting, fishing, driving, bowling, billiards, dancing, theatricals and the company of congenial people make the time pass pleasantly anil all too rapidly. The passenger depart mont of the Erie railroad has issued a booklet that tells interesting about Cambridge Spring. It is gladly sent | for the asking, and phycians especially are asked to send for it and investi- ' gate the claims of Cambridge Springs ' Write D. IW. Cook, G. P. A.
