Of the Spring Waters found at these vSprings, Dr. Samuel Gross of 

 Philadelphia, wrote as follows: 



"I have had opportunity to try various medicines and the various mineral waters of this country and 

 Europe, and I am free to confe.ss that, as an eliminator of di-^ea^ed conditions of the digestive orj^ans, 

 and as a healing agent to the mucous memorane lining the alimentary tract, the waters of these 

 springs are certainly superior to any curative agents I have ever examined." 



Beneficial to Stomach, Liver, Kidney and Bowels.
