How Uncle Sam Saves
Thousands of Lives
Depends Upon the Hot Springs of Arkansas to Cure His
Soldiers, Sailors and Citizens.
Many years ngo when Thomas Jef
ferson was President, the U. S. Govern
ment awaker ed to the fact that the Hot
Springs of Arkansas was the mos: valu
able asset in America for the curing of
human ailments. So all of these springs
were set as!d»» and became a park re
serve. under the direct control and su
pervision of the Government.
It is beyond oomprehenson the thou
sands upon thousands of lives that hive
since been saved through the heaing
powers of these springs.
The waters aer so charged with radium
—known technically as radio-activity—
that they accomplish results in the cure
of disease that would under other treat
ment be considered impossible.
The ailments that most readily yield
to these baths are Rheumatism, Gout.
Neuralgia, Malaria, Locomotor Ataxia
(earlier stages), Bright's Disease (when
not too far advanced). Liver and Bladder
troubles, Catarrhal troubles, Skin and
Blood diseases, troubles peculiar to wo
men, and other troubles of a nature kin
dred to those above mentioned.
Regarding these springs as America's
greatest gift to the sick, the Govern
ment has never allowed them to be ex
ploited for private gain. The prices
charged for the baths are strictly regu
lated—hotel charges are extremely low.
and every consideration is afforded trfe

The city of Hot Springs is one of the
most delightful resorts to be found any
