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.

Today
Is CIeaniDgOp Day
Little odds and ends contribute to
the aftermath of the Christmas trade.
Handkerchiefs that are wrinkled and
mussed ; toys that are scratched and a
thousand and one other things. All of
these go today at
Half Cost.
There are prizes among them by the
score. A few minutes labor will make
them equal to the new. Note the saving.
Some friend you may have forgotten,
perhaps.
It will be easy picking from these
broken lots today. Economical too.
More Bargains Tomorrow.
Of them, we'll tell you more in the
morning.
You may be sure there'll be every
day bargain chances here ail this week.
