THE BATH TUB. Some Hints Thnt Will Add to Its Comforting Qualities. Piom tho Philadelphia Record. A Bleat deal of comfort may be en Joyed by people who have ordinary bath tub facilities by a little nttach men which gives one the privilege of a show hath. This Is a short rubber hose with metal nose. It can be enslly slip ped onto tho faucets. It is most bra" Iiib on an exhausting summer clays to have a cold shower bath. The bath itself need not bo cold; It can be ad Justed to whatever temperature Is cotnfortnble. Hut tho cold spiny of the rose Is exhilaiatlntr, and as you hold the lube In your hand nnd U is llcxlble you cull direct tho cooling shower as you will over the body. This hav advantage over the stationery shower, once attached high up and well over the bath. Most of this show er went on the floor of the bath room, over one's clothes or on the fuiitute and wall paper. Fortunately, It i no longer the custom to place a long, nai io, cofnn-shaped tub In n dtesslng room. The square, shoit tubs are nw'o comfortable. Thev should not be too high. Sometimes one longs for a step ladder by which to ascend the sldo nnd scale the bath. Hather low baths, broad every way, hold all the water tequited, und as few of us expect to swim in the tub there Is no occasion for the bath to be long and uaiiow. It is exaspetatlng to have the house maid dent or chip tho Intel lor of th" tub by settln? down her pitchers fir lining Where the housemaid has no separate spigot fiom which to till her pitchers and buckets a t libber mat hhould be at hand to be plared under tlie spigot and to keep the vessels trotn touching the tub. Some hath tubs have the water, hot and cold, welling up ftoin the bottom. This apparently is to e ircumvent the housemaid It is not pleasant to a fastldlo.it peisonage to have one's bath In gcnTil use by others. Hut few of us ha' e our own dressing baths lor individual use although the Kngllsh custom f pot table lubber or tin baths has some followcis. Thete is 'all the more iiMhim for giving exquisite oleanne-s and at tention to Hit' family bath tub health is Wealth. DR. E. C. WEST'S NERVE AND. BRAIN TREATMENT THE uflto.NAI.'
