BEWARE THE TUB.
Wear More Clean Clothe nd Bath
Yourself Less.
The medical faculty ar keen upon
mlcrolies. but never before has the
KnglUhman's "tub" been ssailed.
Now we are not only warned galnt
the dangers of the dally or weekly
bath, but deliberately told that we are
courting pneumonia nd various dia
eases.
Is thl true? Medical authorities
speak of the necessity of keeping the
pore open. Physiologist depict th
danger of not bathing, and early I" life
we are educated Into the principles
of the dally bath untJk it become a

It 1 argued that the higher th civ
ilization the more public bath, the
more private bathtub, th more provl

weaker the progeny.
The construction of tbe skin Is not
sufficiently strong for th frequent us
of that product of modern civilisation

It Is said that In the days of our
youth we have a strong predilection to
avoid the both; that we ar attracted
to mother earth, and grow fat and
dirty "no. not dirty, but covered with
element that are helpful to ua." In
stinct teaches children right; mint
accumulated knowledge leads bltn
astray. Which 1 to be trusted. Instinct
or thl psendo knowledge? Tbe chick
makes no mistake in following the
duckling into the pond. All animal
governed by instinct avoid bathing tn

slight cold, but the experiment waa
foolish. It Is a useless waste of vital
force, and causes more work for every

the summer time we ent much U

therefore the skin eliminates 110 pot

This is how pneumonia Is invited:
The victim gets into a tub of hot wat

nibs the skin with a fleMli brush; the
skin glows; the blood vessel are taxed
to their limit. Tbe soap dissolves the
fat that agglutinate the jiorea and
holds Intact everal layers of epider
mis. He leaves the belli tub s glow
ing, healthy man, yet withal a prey
to pneumonia. In the morning he goes
to work. In the evening the evil
sprite begin the work. And for what
is all this risk? To Is? clean? Not so!
For to lie clean I not to be molt,
but to be dry. and not to bathe, but to
keep clean clothes.
Therefore, on this principle, a chim
ney sweep I clean, lie, -a use the outer
