they may rest in ease and comfort be- fore and after the bath. The floor of cork will be covered with oriental rugs and divans. and louuging chairs will be scattered among the palms, which will convert the room into a tropical grove.
 At either end of the lounging room doors lead to dressing rooms, each of which might well belong to the boudoir of a princess.
 When Miss Gould's guests in their bathing suits step through the wide doors at the rear of the lounging room to the walk surrounding the pool itself they will be face to face with the glory of the $6O,000 bathtub.
 Gently tapping the marble sides of the pool will stretch the huge basin of water. At the end nearest the loung- ing room the pool will be four feet deep, sloping gradually away to a depth of eight feet at the farther end.
 Pool Fed by Spring.
 The water will flow through the pool in a steady stream fed by a spring far back on the spacious grounds of Lynd- hurst. and at the opposite end an out let will keep the depth constant at all times
 Surrounding the pool will be 16 mar ble columns, supporting the roof of glass and standing upon a walk of ceramic tiles. bordered with white marble benches. Scattered about this walk will be marble benches, covered with rugs and pillows. on which the bathers may rest as they become ia tigued from swimming or from which their friends may watch them while at play in the water.
 White and green will be the prevail ing colors. The pool itself will be lined with green tiles. At the base and along the upper edge will be white marble The interior walls are to be white, and the rays of sunlight will be filtered through the delicately tinted glass ceiling
 Water Supply Provided For.
 in order that the water in the pool may be ever fresh pipes through the basement of the building will carry wa ter not only from the spring on the grounds but also from the mains of the city water system Should an eX- ceptionally dry season cause the spring to run dry it will be possible to make use of the other means of filling the pool.
 The pipes will carry the water first ob of 6ltnrS that will remove every foreign particle, then through boilers which will heat it to the required temperature.
 It will take two and half tons of coal and sixteen and a half hours of time to fill the pool for the first time. Once it is filled and heated, however, it will constantly remain at an even temperature.
 It is the expectation of the builders of this modern bathtub that the glass roof, which will be of what is known as puttyless glass-the joining of one pane to another being invisible to the eye-Will not only serve to light up the pool during the day, but that the rays from the sun will also aid in re taining the heat in the water.
 Extreme Luxury.
 At night clusters of electric lights will be suspended from the roof and from the ceiling over the walk sur rounding the pool. while single lights will shine in every corner of the build ing.
 Not a detail that will add to the lux uriousness of the bath has been omit ted. Under the front of the building a complete system of heating will be in stalled. From it heat will be carried to each dressing room and drying room. Women bathers will even find on their dressing tables the means to dry their hair by artificial heat.
 The work of erecting this palatial bath is already we'll under way. The actual construction is being carried on by A. M Hunter & Son of lryington. A large force of men has been at work for several weks and the builders eX- pect that the bath will be completed by Easter.
 There are other luxurious baths In many private houses-notably that in the basement of Senator w. A. Clark s mansion on Fifth avenue, New York and there are a few magnificent public baths, of which the BroadWater bath just outside Helena, Mont, is the finest. but Miss Gould's is the last
