SCHLANGENBAD. 292 33 Grains of carbonate of soda. 21 17 Do. Do. Of lime, 4 12 (Nearly) do. Of magnesia. 42 214 Chloride of sodium. He says that he knows no spa so adapted to retard or repress the articular stiffness and dryness incidental to even healthy or premature old age, from "fast living. " "I know by experience, " he continues, " that a regular annual use of the spa, imparts to old age, cheerfulness and agility of the joints, and prolonged strength. If we consider its qualities, it is pe...culiarly fitted for a lady's bath, for it beautifies the skin, and renders it more juvenile and elastic, whilst it gives mobility to the limbs. " It will be seen above, that Schlangenbad (and it contains no carbonic acid gas or sulphur gas) much more nearly resembles the Starbeck water than does the Vichy water. It is worthy of remark that the Starbeck Spa is the most alkaline water in Great Britain. I have directed this Spa to be taken as a general drinking-water for ordinary purposes, with marked benefit in the case of a lady who had been afflicted with chronic gout for sixteen years, and who had visited Pau and Bareges and resided at Bath with little benefit.
