Chalet des Sapins, Montana-sur-Sierre, Switzerland

Dear Ida.
  Everything is in order here - and I am v. grateful. Really grateful! I wish I could make you feel it. Ernestine cant work for nuts but it doesn't matter. She'll learn in time. I send you 100 francs. D0 you want more? Let me know. And please order for yourself from the chemist some Eastons Syrup. There is nothing like it for a tonic, and its effect is immediate. Hudson says its the best quick restorer you can have. You need it. Do get it. Surely you realise what health means! Its criminal folly to be careless. Don't just shake your old bi-palatanoids at me.
