Mr J T Harris:—Dear Sir: I have found the use of the water from your I ithia Springs in South Carolina so efficacious in the case of a young lady pa tient of mine, who has suffered for years with Diabetes, with all its different attendants, that 1 want to add my testimonial to the many you already have. Tb“ patient I refer to lias used the water freely at home for scarcely a month now wit b more beneficial resuits than from months spent at the different noted lithia springs in different parts of the United States, besides long continued ge 0 f [he same waters at home.

C.: Gentlemen—I have used, with great benefit, the case of water sent me, and regard it with favor, being highly charged with Lithia. Respectfully, q. Jos. Jones, M. D. Mr. J- T. Harris, Harris Springs, S. C. Dear Sir—I have used the Harris Lithia Spring Water for the past year in ail renal troubles, with prompt and efficient effect. In gouty and rheumatic troubles I consider this water superior to the Buffalo Lithia Spring water. - I suffered from an attack of rheumatism for eight months, during which time 1 drank the Buffalo Lithia Water constantly for four months without effect. In November last I had a case of Harris Lithia Water sent to me, and after drink ing it for about three or four weeks, the pain and stiffness lett my limbs and I have not been troubled since. I feel that I can safely recommed the Harris Lithia Water. Respectfully, Savannah, Ga., June 12, 1893. R. B. Harris, M. D. unexcelled for those ailments Theo. Lamb, M. D., Medicine, Medical Department, The Harris Lithia Water is, in my opinion requiring the salts it contains. Professor Diseases of Chest and Principles of University of Georgia. Asheville, N. C., April 24, 1893. An extended clinical use of the Harris Lithia Water prompts me to the statement that I regard it as one of the best, if not the best Lithia Water known to the profession. In the condition of Phosphatic Urine, its action is marvelous. Its use in the Rheumatic and Gouty Diseases afford me more comfort than either the Buffalo or Londonderry Waters. Very truly yonrs, John Hey Williams, M. D. I have used for sometime Harris Lithia Water in my family, and also with my patients, and find it is the best Water I ever used in catarrhal condition oi the uretus and bladder. It is also a good diuretic Water. Atlanta, Ga., April 20, 1897. G. G. Roy, M. D. * Charleston. S. C., Sept. 20th, 1893. Mr. J. T. Harris—Dear Sir: I am constrained to send you this testimoniaJ of the efficacy of the Harris Lithia Water. The value of the testimonial may be enhanced from the fact that it goes to you unsolicited. As a friend of human ity, I feel bound to withhold my knowledge of its virtues no longer. I have been using the water for more than a year with marked benefit. To any one troubled with kidney disorder, it is the remedy par excellence. I prefer it to the Buffalo Lithia Water Very truly yours, A. C. Kaufman, President Vanderbilt Benevolence Association of Charleston. S. C. Mr. J. T. Harris, Proprietor Harris Lithia Springs. Dear Sir—While it is contrary to my custom to give testimonials to remedial agents, I feel free to attest to the efficacy of the Harris Lithia Water (when used in large quantities) in the Rheumatic and Gouty Diatheses; in Inflamma tion of the Bladder, and in all cases where there is an excess of solids in the urine. Yours respectfully, Geo. Howe, M. D. Columbia, S. C. The waters of the Lithia Springs are odorless, free from color, with a pleas ant saliney taste, rather palatable. When taken in considerable quantity they do not nauseate, purge or produce any feeling of discomfort. I find from the analysis of the waters they contain Chloride Sodium, Carb. Potash, Carb. Soda, Carb. Lithia, Carb. Iron and Sulphate Magnesia*. These waters act directly upon the mucous coating of the stomach and alimentary canal, they are power fully alternative and tonic. They are everything to inflamed or irritated sur faces. They aet upon the blood, changing it from acid to alkaline. In Indi gestion, Catarrh of Stomach and Gastralgia, supplemented with a proper diet they are a certain cure. The action upon the kidneys is marked. The Sodium, Potash, Soda, Lithia, are the best solvents of uric acid, all calculi of an acid character, whether litary or cystic, are steadily dissolved. I am confident that the profession will find it very useful in cases where this class of water is re quired. Respectfully, J. Q. Wilbub, M. D. Waterboro, S. C., April 10, 1892. Camden, S. C„ Aug. 24, 1893. Mr. J T. Harris—Dear Sir: I enclose you in this letter several small pieces of calculi passed by a patient of mine, who has been taking the “Harris Springs Water” for the past eighteen months. This gentleman has been a sufferer for two or three years with Cystitis, caused from stone. The solvent power of the water has been, I think, clearly demonstrated in this case. All these fragments were passed in two evacuations from his bladder in the past ten days. I con sider Harris Spring Water a most excellent remedy in the Uric Acid Diathesis, also in Chronic Dyspeptic troubles. ~ ~ I am, yours respectfully, A- W. Burnet, M. D. Chester, Si C. Dear Sir: For the past eight months I have been using Harris Lithia Water with the most excellent results, where I have been able to get my patients to drink a sufficient quantity daily.

It is very necessary to have plenty of tact in order to manage the patient well; and also to be loyal and honest in carrying out the doctor’s orders. When nurs ing, these orders depend in a great measure on what you observe and report to the doctor. Therefore the better trained you are in ob servation the more accurate de tails you can give of your patient. Notice as to sleep, whether it is restless, and the duration of it. Jf there is any cough, and of what character, if it be short and hard, spasmodic or loose, also whether j;here is sickness or any expectora lion ; if such be the case it is well to save what is brought up for the doctor’s inspection. Report a& to the state of the skin, whether there is any swotting or not, or if the skin is yery dry and burning. It is well to see if there be anything abnormal in the excretions, and when necessary show to the doc tor. Always make a note of these observations and if possible keep a sick-room chart with everything of consequence written clearly upon it.
