Trace« MEDICAL TESTIMONIES:' As a pleasant, agreeable and invigorating beverago it is unsurpassed ; as a therapeutic agent we may confidently expect Puriri Water to be equally useful in all cases in which European waters would be prescribed; as a, stimulating alterative on the digestive organs In sickness I have found it of groat Talue. It is water which I would recommend fre- «-*• SIISV I find ititrongly alkaline, and as an antacid would be useful in dyspepsia, gout, and rheumatism. When charged with carbonic acid it forms an agreeuble effervescing drink. I have personally given the water a trial, and believe it will -prove valuable in cases stfch as those 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.
