Excerpt from Cleveland Medical Gazette, Vol. 1: A Monthly Journal of Medicine and Surgery, November, 1885-October, 1886 Every one Should bathe, some people more frequently than others, and the essential accompaniments to a bath are good sense, good soap and a rough towel, the first and last to be used at each bath, the soap but once a week. Persons in health Should bathe every morning upon rising, using a cold plunge, a cold sponge, or a cold Shower bath. The time occupied is important, most people stay in the water too long, the plunge bath takes but a moment, the Shower or sponge bath should not exceed five minutes. Reaction is established most quickly after the plunge bath, it, therefore, is the best one to use. After a bath the Skin should be wiped dry, then rubbed with a coarse towel or ¿esh brush until it becomes aglow. Once a week soap and warm water Should precede the cold bath, if the latter be omitted the Skin is left in a relaxed and an anaemic condition - the acne skin.
