But we shouldn't laugh at this somewhat primitive scene, according to Consum ers Information, which points out that only a hundred years ago. there were only 1,500 bathtubs in the United States, all of them In Philadelphia, where they had a elty water system and taxed each tub $3 00. President Fillmore Installed the first tub in the White House in 1850. Advertising of the advantages of con venient and sanitary bathing started 31 years later, has continued increasingly ever since, and has made the United States the cleanest nation on earth. Even the most advanced European nations are far behind us in this respect, and the pos session of a bathtub in most countries is 1 , a sign not only of opulence, but ostenta tion. The United States is among the few countries generally educated to the knowledge that health and cleanliness go together. SHULTS BROTHERS l>r perniatile *0 A u t o Pa in tin g R O PY * 8.
