A Letter About Your Orphan*,
Dear Friend:—
We need immediate aid for your
orphans at the Thornwell Orphanage
Think of it—a family of two hun
dred and absolutely no present pro
vision for them—and this family is
made up of your little orphaned broth
ers and sisters.
They are looking to you for their
breed to-day, to-morrow and the next
day,—for all the winter clothing, and
it takes thousands of yards,—that
must be bought,—for the fuel that
will warm them and the books that
they must study.
We will be at great expense, as you
see, to get ready for the winter, while
every day demands a hundred-weight
of Ihmr and of other things that go
with it.
Do you complain that we did not
tell you this sooner? Well, we are
to blame for it for we waited and
waited. There were the starving
Hindoos to help, and poor devastated
Galveston to aid —and there were
our Chi no so misionaries to he relieved.
We could not speak till this was done.
Now, dear friend, it is your time.
Help us quickly, in dimes or dollars
.icks o r barrels, just as you can uf-
tord V.
< >ur little peepe are well and happy,
and ail are at school, They haven’t
the remotest idea they are near an
empty table and a cheerless winter.
They imagine that God will send them
their dinner, as He did Elijah. Shall
they he wakened to find that the angel
lias forgotten? Dear friend, you are
the angel!

What They Say About....
Harris Lithia Water:
Mr. J. T. Harris:
Dear Sir—I have found the use of the water
from your Lithia Spring in South < 'arolina so
efficacious in the ease of a young lady pa
tient of mine, win) has suffered for years with
Diabetes, with all its different attendants,
that I want to add my testimonal to the
many you already have. The patient I refer
to has used the water freely at home for
scarcely a month now, with more Jiencficlat
results than from months spent at different
lithia springs in different parts of the I'nilcd
States, besides long continued use of tho
same waters at home. Ollier of my patients
and friends aro now using the same with best
results. I cordially recommend it to all suh-
ering from similar diseases.
Very respectfully yours,
Thomas S. Powell, M. I).
Pres. Southern Medical College,
Atlanta, Ga,
“The Harris Lithia Water Is, in my opinion,
unexcelled for those ailments requiring the
salts It contains.

sity of Georgia."
Asheville, V (’., April 24. 18:0.—An ex
tended clinical use of the Harris Lithia Wa
ter prompts me to the statement that I re
gard It as one of the liest. if not t he best,
Lithia \\ ater known to the profession. In the
condition of Phosphatlc Urine, Its action Is
marvelous. Its use in the Rheumatic and
Gouty diseases afford me more comfort than
either the Buff alo or Londonderry Waters.
Very truly yours.
