The warm weather of the past two
or three idays is greatly enjoyed by in
valids and other visitors to this natur
al sanitarium.
A party of heavy weights who went
out for a ten mile drive last Saturday
declare that their escort aud guid.,
Mr. D; C. Blue, of Keyser, is the best
"whip" they ever rode with. They
were also surprised at the size of the
pine trees standing thickly on these
sandy ridges, but ceased to wonder
when they saw the many freight trains
that pass here on the Raleigh & Au
gusta railroad get all the lumber they
can carry.
One remarkable thing at this place
is the unanimity with which the in
valids from all parts of the North
bear witness to the salutary effects of
this climate. Among the many here
there is not one that does not cor
dially attest to the personal benefits
derived from a temporary stay at
Southern Pines. As for the children,
"their eyes stand out with fatness."
For all bronchial and pulmonary
troubles, when not too far advanced,
the air and water here possess healing
virtues, ! the like of which have not
been found at any other sanitary resort
in the United States. 8.
