Notes About Hot Springs in Arkansas Health Resort
Trot springs Arkansas May 27 Two and a half weeks ago I left Bennettsville for Hot Springs the famous natural health resort and sanitarium of the world. The city hosts about 150 000 visitors annually and relies on the hot water drawn from about 800 tubs. Government control via Uncle Sam provides the water and mountain reserve, with tubing and spouts supplying the baths though the water runs at 117 degrees and must be cooled for use. The area’s economy hinges on tourism with steam cars bands and entertainment common on Sundays. My daughter seeks a cure at the Dark Sanatorium where physicians insist twelve months of washing may not suffice but hot baths show some benefit, though costly due to nurses and care.
