And about half-past ten she heard his footsteps pass her door, going outwards. Two and a half hours later they came back, stumbling heavily. She remained, reflecting upon this position until the last night of their stay at Nauheim. Then she suddenly acted.
'Mr Pendle! she said, placing herself directly in his way, 'I thought you were at Nauheim. What is wrong? Is your mother ill? Is she coming back? Are you in trouble? Gabriel could not answer all, or even one of these questions on the instant, for the sudden appearance and speech of the Beorminster busybody had taken him by surprise.
You see when she came back from Nauheim Leonora began to have her headaches headaches lasting through whole days, during which she could speak no word and could bear to hear no sound. And, day after day, Nancy would sit with her, silent and motionless for hours, steeping handkerchiefs in vinegar and water, and thinking her own thoughts.
If he had not been the most angelic bishop in England he would have revolted; but as he was anxious that his wife should have no cause of complaint, he exhausted himself with the utmost amiability. But the longest lane has a turning, and the day came when Mrs Pendle and Lucy, attended by the dazed Harry, left for Nauheim viâ Queenborough, Flushing and Cologne.
'Mamma is better now than ever she was, said Lucy, 'and if she goes to Nauheim the treatment will only weaken her. 'It will strengthen her in the long run, Lucy. I hear wonderful accounts of the Nauheim cures.
So while my medical advisers were wringing their hands over the practical inaccessibility and the lack of amenity of Nauheim, whither they had despatched me unwilling in dreary summers before the war, and while they were suggesting even more depressing health resorts in the British Isles, it occurred to me to ask them whether Royat-les-Bains did not contain broken-down heart repairing works of the first order.
However, to give her some food for her mind, he answered her questions categorically. 'I have just returned from Nauheim, Mrs Pansey, he said hurriedly. 'There is nothing wrong, so far as I am aware. My mother is much better, and is benefiting greatly by the baths. She is coming back within the month, and I am not in trouble. Is there anything else you wish to know?
Affairs were not going well in America, and in June Clemens made a trip over to see what could be done. Probably he did very little, and he was back presently at Nauheim, a watering-place, where he was able to work rather quietly. He began two stories one of them, "The Extraordinary Twins," which was the first form of "Pudd'nhead Wilson;" the other, "Tom Sawyer Abroad," for "St. Nicholas."
Now it happens that fifty minutes away from Nauheim, by a good train, is the ancient city of M , upon a great pinnacle of basalt, girt with a triple road running sideways up its shoulder like a scarf. And at the top there is a castle not a square castle like Windsor, but a castle all slate gables and high peaks with gilt weathercocks flashing bravely the castle of St Elizabeth of Hungary.
So many heart patients have been improved by the Nauheim treatment that the question arises as to whether the treatment can be conducted at home or in a sanatorium near home, when the patient is unable to go to this resort; that is to say, Can we establish this treatment for the majority of patients who have chronic heart disease?
