Excerpt from California as It Is In addition to the Tassajara Springs, about forty miles south of Monterey, which are becoming more popular every year, there are Chalybeate Springs, near the mouth of the Carmel River, and near Soledad, the present terminus of the South ern Pacific Railroad, the far-famed Paraiso Springs. At the last mentioned very comfortable accommodations have already been provided and the tide of visitors is constantly on the increase. A new road over the mountains to Tassajara has assisted travel to those springs, and we frequently hear of the wonderful sanitary virtue of the waters. The climate, both at Tassajara and Paraiso, is incomparable. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
