By the fifteenth' century there was scarcely a large city that did not possess well -patronized public 1 bathing establishments, although it was not until the seventeenth cen'turythat the Turkish bath was introduced, and not until the eigh llfee(nth century that sea bathing, so common among 'the Amer'bians Indians, was tried experimentally, Saturday was chosen as bathing time and the reason is not diffi-. cult to imagine. On Sunday every body was compelled 'to go to church, whether he would or not. As the Moslem in the east bathed be orb entering the mosque, so did the medieival man befforfe en- tering the church, only' he must take his bath on Saturjd'ay rafter, noon in order to be clean the fol lowing day. There was even a die tntibution• of, bath money to the children whose parenits were un- able to pay for their baths.
