Text on front reads: "Arcadian Spring, Waukesha, Wis." Two people are seated at a "healing mineral spring" with a pavilion and springhouse. The Arcadian Mineral Spring Company was incorporated in 1885 and had a bottling house 300 feet from the spring. Between 1868 and 1918, 60 mineral springs were located here. People would travel here to "enjoy the waters."
