It is water which I would recommend frequently. MARTIN H. PAYNE, E. 0.5., L.R.C.P., M.R.C.S. I find it strongly alkaline, and as an antacid would be useful in dyspepsia, gout, and rheumatism. When charged with carbonic acid it formß an agreeable tffervescing drink. I have personally given the water a trial, and believe it will prove valuable in cases suck as thoM above mentioned. CHARLES F. GOLDSBRO, R.O.P. It promises to be a most useful addition to the means of cure at the command of persons' affected by. gout in its various forms. It is extremely palatable, and may be advantageously employed as a beverage by all who are food of a clear and sparkling drink. Its chemical constitution strongly resembles the waten of Ticby. J. KILGOUB, M.D. Puriri water can be best compared in value to the celebrated waters of Kissingen in Bavaria,, beneficially used in cases of diseases of the digestive organs. JErated it is a cooling and refreshing drink. B. SOBWARZBAOH, M.D. All Orders from Steamen, Hotels, and Private Families promptly attended to.
