Chautauqua Springs. 
In Chautauqua county there is a pure spring of water which 
has attracted considerable attention. It flows from beneath a 
sandstone rock in a little valley south of the village of Chau- 
tauqua Springs. Fewimprovements have been made, with the 
exception of erecting a spring-house. ‘This region is much di- 
versified by hills and valleys, and the streams are clear and 
sparkling. In this respect the region differs from most of the 
Kansas mineral-spring localities. This water belongs to that 
class of comparatively pure waters or ‘‘soft’’ waters referred to 
in chapter XVIII. Such waters are very useful when it is of ad- 
vantage to the patient to drink copiously, and when he does not 
desire the effect of any mineral salts. As the water is free 
from large quantities of salts of lime and magnesium, which 
are so abundant in Kansas, it may in many cases be very bene- 
ficial to patients. Chautauqua may be reached by the A. T. & 
S. F. railroad.
