OPINIONS OF THE PRESS.
" The Use and the Abuse of the Turkish Bath.—A very
useful pamphlet has been published by Dr. Culverwell, the
proprietor of the Turkish Baths in the neighbourhood of the
Post-office, which presents to the uninitiated a mass of inte-
resting information, while those who have already encouraged
this new system will derive additional advantage if they
observe some of the practical regulations which the writer
endeavours to enforce."—Herald and Standard, N0v.12,1861.
" The Post-office Turkish Baths, 19, St. Martin's-le-Grand.

an able physician ; he has now proved himself to be a worthy
philanthropist, in as far as be has established, the
heart
of the City, an institution that more nearly thall Any disco-
very of modern days, goes nearer the abolition of tlib practice
of physic, than any proposition or invention yet established,
the Turkish Bath. . . Our object being merely to direct
the attention of our City readers to the fact that they possess
one of tile best set of baths, at 19, St. Martin's-le-Grand,
which the country can produce; perfect in all its appliances,
and most admirable in effect. Dr. Culverwell has fitted up
his baths with a degree of elegance, luxury, and refinement,
Which, considering the space at his disposal, is truly sur-
prising, while everything that taste or delicacy could desire
has been obtained to add to the comfort and luxury of the
visitor.- . . We may justly say that if a man ever feels
himself regenerated and new made, it if OU:SOlning outlet:a
