He wrote; “I do not know, indeed, whether all nations do not owe to one

one party, and their detestation of the conduct of the other. But farther than this we are not bound to go; indeed, for the sake of the

world, we ought not to increase the jealousies, or draw on ourselves the power of this formidable confederacy. “I have ever deemed it fundamental for the United States never to take active part in the quarrels of Europe. Their political interests are entirely distinct from ours. Their mutual jealousies, their balance of power, their complicated alliances, their forms and principles of government, all are foreign to us. They are nations of eternal war.” In this same letter is an intriguing intimation of the Monroe Doctrine. He wrote: ” ” 8 “COULD WE induce her (Great Britain) to join us in guaranteeing its (Cuba’s) independence against all the world, except Spain, it would be nearly as valuable to us as if it were our own.” “You will do what is right,” Jefferson assures Monroe, ‘leaving the people of Europe to act their follles and crimes among ‘themselves, while we pursue in good faith the paths of peace and prosperity.” “Nothing is so important as that America shall separate herself from the systems of Europe, and establish one of her own,” Jefferson wrote to J. Correa de Serra, on October 24, 1820, “How happily distant are we from the Bedlam of Europe,” he wrote Willlam Short on May 15, 1818.

claims for the active waters

were toned down. An 1855 advertisement by Dr. Bowles

recommended Pluto water for:

“DISPEPSIA, chronic dysentery and diarrhea, loss of ap- , affection of liver, spleen and kidneys . .. . diseases of the skin, ulcers” and 80 on. In a Taggart brochure of about 30 years ago, the slant had changed: “The waters are not a cureall. Like any other form of therapy, they have their own

particular fleld.”

The proprieters regretted that some persons had come f{o French Lick and drank water “in an excessive and unregulated manner.” Result: “Exercise was overdone.” Throughout the years, the waters never lost this power to “exercise.” ” » » ANALYSES showed they contain “sulphated - sulphuretted - alkaline - saline” solutions in various concentrations. Which accounts for the smell like gunpowder and eggs. At one time, their radium content also was ballyhooed. Of the three springs, Pluto (“like the devil himself”) is strongest. Recommended for beginners are Bowles Fountain (named for the founder) and Prosperine—regarded by legend as the fountain of youth for which Ponce de Leon searched. The waters were also highly recommended for soaking, and mineral baths were popular. After his father’s death, Tom Taggart Jr. took over and continued to run a highly successful resort. Gradually, however, French Lick Springs changed from a health spa to a place for rest sul gam, And gradually it became one of the most famous convention sites in the land. 8 5 » THE JUNIOR TOM was famous in another way—he had one of the finest stables of race horses in the country and owned the famous racer, Big Flash. : Employees loved the Taggarts. They felt they were partowners of the spa, and knew that faithful employees were never fired. = “It was just fine working for them. I can’t think of a better job in the world.” That comment was made this week by John L. Thomas, who

Even at breakfast, you can stretch out for some seven courses, and there is “live” music at mearly all meals. Dairy products are provided by 150 head of choice cattle, and much produce is raised on the spa’s farmland.

ROWS OF IRON ranges are used to cook the food, and its pastries became famous for being baked exclusively over wood fires.

Long before they were commercially packed, tomato juice and kraut juice were devised by French Lick dieticlans and served to guests. Trade fell off’ during depression years, then rallied until World War II. It picked up again in 1947 and 1948, but since then has sunk to all-time depths. The Taggarts sold in 1946 to Mr. Cabot, former shipping owner who had recently turned to hotels. He paid- $4 million for it, then immediately spent another half million in remodeling. He values it at $7.5

million, but this week Mr. Cabot |
