the Work.
o
The hydrographic division of '1
ie United States geological sur- B
jy includes among its numerous K
ues of work a study of the arte
an well conditions of those parts d
' the United States where such t
ells are possible, so that it m iv b
auder practical assistance to tho I
nople of such districts in their
ETorts to obtain a better and 1
tore healthful supply of water, p
y giving information as to the
lances of success, probable depth s
nd character of water. fj
Such information can only be
iven after a careful Btudy of the
sology of the region and a col- c
sction and study of the records 1
d material passed through in t
s many as possible of the wells r
rilled in the region. After such s
;udy trustworthy advice and as- n
stance may be given to parties h
mtemplating drilling artesian "
ells by which they may be g
iiided where there is prospect of v
iccess or warned and prevented t
om wasting money where fail p
re !s assured.
A large number of artesian h
ells have been drilled in South fc
arolina, but almost no 6tudy has
sen made of the geological prob d
ras involved in the search for t
rtesian water in this State, and
Imost no samples of materials t
ave been preservd except from t
well or two in Charleston. This o
ivision of the United States geo t
igical survey has placed Dr. L f
. Glenn of the South Carolina t
>llege in charge of the work in o
outh Carolina and he desires to s
btain records of the depth of the
ell, thickness, character and 1
istance below the surface of the (2
arious strata gone through, posi- t
on of the various water bearing t
eds, the quantity and quality of 1
le water and the height to which t
rises with the cost of boring. It <i
1 highly important that a sample
f several ounces of the material
f each of the various beds passed ?
irnugh be secured for study and 1
lat the thickness and depth he i
5W the surface of each of these "
ampled beds bv known. It is e
specially desirable that all shells, ,
ones, teeth, etc, be preserved r
nd sent with a record of their c

Pleurisy
Pleurisy and pneumonia are frequently
developed, in a very short
space of time, from a common cold:
and, if such an acute inflammation or
the lungs is not promptly allayed,
the worst may happen. With the aid
of Dr. Bull's Oougn Syrup, however,
you need not have any fear: for this
great remedy speedily subdues the
inflammation, eases the pain in
breathing and always effects a cure
in a wonderfully short time.
