B. Do not bathe soon after hearty eat
ing or drinking or when overheated;
though cool plunge is not likely to be
hurtful when somewhat overheated if it

7. Neither in health or disease is
there any advantage in prolonging u
bath more than fifteen minutes, and
tonic cold baths should consist mainly
in plunge or dip and a rub.
8. If reaction or a returning glow of
warmth in the skin is not made sufficient
in brisk rubbing and exercise, warm
drink will assist, and sometimes the use
of mild stimulant may be necessary.

alcohol or ammonia in the water may
make it more agreeable.
IL In administering sponge baths it
is usually best to finish one part before
wetting another.
