The daily Cairo bulletin. (Cairo, Ill.) 1878-1???, 1881-09-07

in Bremen with the rest Of the passengers
Of whom very few had been sick. I re-
NAMED at Bremen two day, tried to get
Germanized by visiting the celebrated Wine
Celler and other public buildings, and in
the evening attended grand concert in the
park by military band, which
must have been fine, it
looked grand, these so musicians
in military dress On the evening Of the
second day left for Wiesbaden, a bcauti-
full and fashionable watering place, full Of
pleasure seekers, as we'll as health seekers.
stopped there one day, just long enough
to find out that this was not my place.
From here went to Heidelberg another
fine city, full of ancient history and relics.
spent some time in and about the ruins of
an old castle, in the cellar Of which is a
wine task, with capacity of 100000 litres
$4,000 gallons). spent nearly two days
here, climbing the nearest mountain, which
gives a beautiful panorama over the low
lands OF the Rhine for distance of 70 miles
or more. | was so interested in the old
ruins and scenery that almost forgot my
uncomfortable condition for the time being
| But as / came here for health more than
| pleasure, went to professor of the clinic
to be examined, who pronounced my case an
enlargement of the liver, and recommended
to me the place where | now am, and who
prescribed the cold water cure. This place
is situated in valley among the mountains,
900 feet above the sea, and surrounded by
mountains of from one to two thousand
feet, and covered with pine forrest Oul
stage coach travelled about four hours w
grade, to get to this valley, where cold wa
ter iuns freely and continually. Here is an
institute where cold water is utilized and
used in different ways to cure the patients
and will tell you how am treated: At c

attendants enter my ROOM and after getting
out Of my bed, undrcss then the attend
ants throw wet blanket over me md rul
me all over for about minute, then the
same with dry blanket, and after being
| dressed, | take an hours walk. At II
o'clock, after having taken n sharp walk
and, while sweating, | take "tush bath :
this is in the form Of heavy rain, with
one big stream at the same time
In this rain | stand one minute, ther
dried off and invited to take a walk. Al
5 o'clock another bath of one minute. This
time place myself before an opening
through which the water rushes like the
levee was broken, and when I come out
am as red as lobster and after walking 8
while / become warm and comfortable
This finishes the days work. In good
weather am out in the woods and upon
the mountains pretty much all day, for the
air is good and pure and the water is clear
and cold. Aside from the bathing it seems
to ME that the air would make person
well if he remains long enough. I have
been here now little over three weeks
and am greatly improved My intention
was to remain here four weeks and ther
go to Switzerland, but as the baths seem to
do me good I shall remain little longer
and if necessary go to Luzern for a shor
time. But hope to get entirely we'll here
The weather is at present very cool and un
pleasant with frequent showers 80 that
cannot walk through the woods as much al
| would like, and to stay in the room is mo-
agreeable. There are about 400 guests
here in this little place, some take the
water cure and some the air. l hope to get
well in time to start on my return trip by
the first of October. In the meantime
| want TO visit several places vet.
