The custom of fu nishing a little money and a wee bit "dispensary on such occasions is cheer ing to tho souls of many and smacks of hospitality, but it is u custom moro honored in tho broach than in tho ob servance.

The most remarkable Wate r on the Market to-day which is Shown by its Analysis and Testimonials of the Most Noted Physicians of the Country. Read what a prominent merchant of Columbia, S. C, has to say for Harris Lithia Water. "I had long been affected with kidney troubles. I had tried all the mineral waters from Saratoga to Porter Springs. I had tried the Western waters and all others that I could hear of, and 1 have no hesi tancy in saying that none have benefited me even approximately as much as the Harris Lithia Water. I was using the Buffalo Lithia Water when 1 heard of this. I do not expect to use the Buffalo Water again. "When I went to Harris Lithia Springs, I had lo be assisted out of my chair. After remaining two weeks I could gel about as good as anybody. It acted on me like a charm?quickly and effectively. This water is now being largely sold in Columbia, and 1 think every person who has tried it will agree with mo in the belief that it is the most re markable water in the country. From a simple interest in Buffering hu manity, 1 would like very much to see it given a trial. 0. A. BALDWIN, Columbia, S. C. Harris Lithia Water Co., Harris Springs, S. C. A8UEV1LLE, N. C, September, 9, 1S93. Mr. J. T. Harris: We have been selling the Harris Lithia Water for some time, and find it a ready seller; those who have tried it are loud in iis praise. The doctors here regard it superior to cither the Buffalo or Londonderry Waters. Wc predict for it a wonderful sale when the merits become more generally known. Yours very truly, RAYSOR St SMITH, Prescription Druggist. Prosperity, S. C. Feb. 28, 1S94. Mr. J.
