of auy particular value until whiiih me w
few week wheu I was iudueedto try a wtl
which proved to be mueli more strongly im
pregnated than any I had before tasted. The
effect ou me was very prompt and very de
rided ; precisely the same us that of the
R.M'kJr'.lge Ahjin Water in Virginia. On
lheg-Mh Jui- I ut " Liiicdiitoii feel

My tongue was furred, uud nearly as white
as common paper, aiid my mouth so pa relied
that I found it difficult to sustain an ordinary
aouversatiou. Aftjend, to whsMii I WHseak

t.dd me of this water ; but as I hud fre
quently tried that from other wells without
any erceptiblc benefit, I bad little faith iu
it imwer of relieving ine. However, atte.
I a time, consented to try It. and t y snr-
I prise found it so much stronger than auy I
I bad before tast.-d, that I could hardly Iw-
lieve it was from the same vmiuiiy. I it me
it appeared nearly, if uot quite, as strung
as the Rockbridge water, but iu flavor re
