MONTVALE SPRINGS. 
This beautiful, as well as noted summer resort for the pleasure seeker and invalid has been purchased by Jesse E. Engle, of 
Baltimore, M. D., who has made the following improvements: 
Water has been introduced to each floor of the house— carried by pipes from springs in the mountain. A much needed 
improvement. Water closets, for gentlemen and ladies, now provided in the hotel building. The hotel and cottages attached 
thereto, are thoroughly repainted, within and without. An entire new kitchen, with all the modern improvements attached 
tliereto, has been provided. A new dancing pavilion adjoining the hotel, sufficient for the accommodation of all who may desire 
to indulge in this most pleasant of all amusements, is also now complete. The bowling alley, bath-house, and stables have all 
undergone thorough repairs. The walks, drives and grounds are being ornamented and repaved. In addition, a fountain is 
being made to sport in the sun’s rays in front of the hotel. Fifty sets of nevf furniture have been added to the furnishing of the 
house. The parlor has been refltted and furnished with entire new furniture. 
Saddle-horses and carriages for the benefit of the guests will be furnished at reasonable rates. The beautiful turnpike road 
from Maryville to Montvale, a distance of nine miles, has been thoroughly repaired, and a new line of hacks, connecting with 
trains, will run daily. 
TO THE INVALID, 
Montvale can present more advantages than any other place on this continent. The waters, when properly used under the 
advice of a competent and experienced physician, such as the resident physician at Montvale is, are a sure cure for dyspepsia, 
dropsy, liver disease, and, in fact, any and all diseases which affect the mucus membrane, including diseases pecidiar to females. 
For all scrofulous affections, diseases of the eyes, etc., these waters are a specific, and have cured thousands of cases of these 
diseases. 
“As a double magnesian and chalybeate water, it ranks among the strongest of which we have any recorded analysis, 
personal or from publications. Its strength is such, in fact, that its habitual use should in no wise be attempted without 
medical advice ; and the salts it contains, particularly those of magnesia and iron, which are present in large quantity, are 
among the very best, and most prescribed for certain classes of diseases. 
“ Of the beneficial effects of this water upon many forms of gleet or blennorrhea, especially those of a chronic form, sus- 
tained, as they frequently are, by an enervated condition of the parts, and a diminished energy of the general system, no more 
certain and effective remedy exists than the free use of the Montvale waters. 
“ In most of chronic diseases peculiar to females, as clironio, hemorrhage, menorrhagia, dismenorrhagia, or painful or other 
irregularities of menstruation, and Lueorrheea, much may be expected from the renovating powers of this fountain of health.

BEAUTIFYING THE COMPLEXION. 
During the summer of 1881, Mr. W. B. Reese, of Nashville, came to the Springs with his little daughter, whose fiice was 
entirely covered with freckles. After remaining a few days, they were entirely removed. Mr. Reese authorizes the present 
manasers to refer any person to him for proof of the above.
