the Importance OF story interest I'm plays:

JAPANESE AND BATHING.
Luxurious Way of Using Water
for Cleanliness and
Recreation.

H . 10 n I .
Partial accounts Of the luxury of
Japanese bath lead us to believe that
we have something yet to learn about
what Is regarded by many in this coun-
try as necessity and by more as a
supererogation, In japan the bath ls
not only necessity but delightful
recreation. and when hot days come
some OF us wish we were in the Land of
the Cherry Blossom, soaking In an ORR
entail tub.
The Japanese have a way OF their
own OF taking d bath. They have a
system that In some respects resembles
that enforced at sYimming pools In
this country. You must first wash the
body thoroughly, and then you enter
the tub. the water OF which Is heated
by an individual system. There, IL you
are in a public bath house, you may
smoke and ldoze or chat with your
friends, in a dissipation that is said to
be exceptionally refreshing. The water
Is kept hot perhaps increases In heat
and when you leave the tub IL Is still
regarded as Fit for the next customer.
In private house the master and mis-
tress may have their baths first, and
the same water serves for the invigora-
ten and diversion OF the servants. The
ignorant foreigner who goes into 2 Ja-
panese tub for the purpose OF cleansing
his body. and with soap spoils the wa
ter for further use, is not only guilty Of
q social errer but entails a hardship on
the household. including the servants.
The Japaneses idea, in modified
form, might we'll be introduced into
America. There are no statistics to tell
us what proportion OF American work
men use bath tub, but 1t is said to be
q confirmed habit with the laboring Ja-
panese. Their work done, perhaps they
go to the public bath house, and smoke
and gossip as they loll In hot water,
and then return home with a clean
body and tranquil mind. To be sure,
there are times when the Japanese are
overcome with sake; But their habituai
excess is the bath, and II has merits
that a shave and a prolonged soak In
an American saloon do not possess.
