Luxury of the Bath,

We have heard intelligent, enlight.

ia weakening. Many invalids fear to
bathe least they shall "run down" in
consequences. Even many physicians
seem to have a very incorrect notion Of
the effect Of baths, often dosing their
patients for weeks in the hope of curing
some simple malay which resulted
wholly from a dirty skin. Don't be
afraid Of water. IL won't hurt you In
the warm summer months, a daily bath
is nom too much for cleanliness. 1t
need not be prolonged more than two
or three minutes in most cases, and a
very large amount OF water is not re-
CURED TO cleanse the skin effectively, ii
its application is accompanied by Wig.
orous rubbing. In some cases n water
bath every other day, and IA dry hani
rub ON tee alternate dag, viii suffice
for cleanliness. We do net advocate
cold.water bathing, sven in summer,
though many may practice it without
apparent injury. Water Of a temper.
ature only a few degrees below blooI
heat is generally preferable. Our ad.
vice to all who wish to be true health
