Among the memorials of the dead there is one that has a Antivert Canada very real and national interest. It has been raised in honour of the territorial soldiers who gave their lives for their country in the Franco- German war, and on it Antivert 25 Mg are set down the names of every Hans or Friedrich that died in battle or of disease during the great campaign. The story of their patriotism is ever before their relations and descendants and teaches the present generation by what per- sonal self-sacrifice the greatness of the Fatherland has been achieved. And it is not in Sprudelheim alone that such a monument is to be found. In every little German town the memory of the gallant dead is in like manner preserved and no name however humble is lost to the country which the soldier served. In England Antivert 12.5 Mg we are not unmindful of the men who have died to maintain our honour and guard our interests, but our recognition is not so wide reach- ing and systematic as that which Germany gives to its lost cham- pions. The table d'hdte has been men- tioned. Now, as in Sir F. Head's time, the dinner hour in Germany is one o'clock and at that time, in the Kurhaus and at all the hotels of Sprudelheim, a most substantial meal is provided. But the cuisine differs much from that of sixty years since. No longer can it be said that " after the company have eaten heavily of messes which it would be impossible to describe, in comes some nice salmon — then fowls — then puddings — then meat again — then Antivert 25mg stewed fruit, and after the English stranger has fallen back in his chair quite beaten, a leg of mutton majestically makes its appearance ! " No, the dinner that is offered to-day, though certainly substantial, still follows the established routine of a civil- ised meal, and the cookery is good enough for any one who does not require the refinements of the Amphitryon Club. No one can eat to repletion at one o'clock, however, and it would be an awful trial to sit through the whole gamut of the repast in a stuffy hall crowded with one or two hundred fellow creatures. By the favour of the Ober we are accommodated with a table under the trees Antivert 25 on the terrassc and are served with a small selection from the copious menu, which, though not beyond the scope of a German appetite, is yet too extensive to 338 BAILY S MAGAZINE. [May be grappled with by a mere Briton. And here let it be said, for the information of any possible visitor to Sprudelheim, that little restriction is put upon appetite by medical direction. There is some mild advice as to what you must eat, drink and avoid, but possibly Sir F. Head's theory on the sub- ject has still some approximation to truth — that, if everybody led an ascetic life and reduced eating to the very moderate amount' that probably best suits our invalid state, the golden harvest of the season which is reaped by the hotel keepers and other purveyors would be very considerably re- duced, and in doing this no doctor as a native of the place would care to be willingly instrumental. The most serious restraints that our doctor imposes are with regard to smoking and drinking and they point to moderation more than total abstinence. We have Antivert Meclizine once or twice referred to our doctor, but, as he is about the most important and sought after personage in Sprudelheim, we must pay homage to him in ampler words. We use the ex- pression " sought after " in its fullest sense, for it is by no means easy to secure an interview with him. Of the hundreds of invalids that journey to Sprudelheim, by far the greatest number wish to place themselves under his care. His fame is European and all, royal, gentle and simple, ask for his attention. With so many demands upon his time he has reduced the art of giving short and pithy interviews to a science. His carriage appears at an hotel and he flits like a woodcock from apartment to apartment, giving to each patient the veriest minimum of consultation. Unlike a digni- fied English physician, whose manner is always leisurely how- ever hurried he may be, the German specialist has no breath to spare for anything but the most curt of sentences and the patient who thinks Antivert Price to gain a hearing for a long tale of symp- toms will be woefully mistaken. They tell of one old lady who embarked on such a tale and, during its progress, took her eyes off the doctor for a Cheap Antivert moment. When she raised them again he was gone and, glancing out of the window, she saw him feeling another pulse in a house on the opposite side of the street. That nobody can have any delicacy or reticence with a medical adviser is a maxim on which he con- sistently acts. A rap is heard at a bedroom door, possibly when the occupant is in the most neglige and meagre of costumes. There is no pause for permission to enter and in plunges the doctor who informs the scared dame " Ah, that is just what I want." He at any rate is spared the delay of preparation for the stethoscope. But this pre - occupation 'and hurry makes him very elusive, and he is apt to forget how essential it is to his patients' convenience, if Meclizine Antivert not to their actual health, that they should see him with some regularity. He never prescribes a course of treatment for more than two or three days and, if further advice is not then given, the course of baths and every- thing for which Antivert Otc we are sacrificing time and money to be at Sprudel- heim, is at a standstill. The doctor has often to be shot flying. Oblivious that he has promised to call on somebody, he is seen mak- ing his way from house to house, and the forgotten one, either per- sonally or by deputy, waylays him, carries him off triumphantly and extracts from him, Buy Antivert almost by force, his words of wisdom. It is indeed one of the excitements of Spru- J 1899] SPRUDELHEIM. 339
