Bathing in Japan and Modern Remedies Review
A patchwork of excerpts describes Japanese bathing practices for women, contrasting cold, warm, and hot baths with skin effects. The piece shifts to advertisements for cold remedies, cough syrups, and patent medicines, urging readers to trust named makers like Hall’s Catarrh Cure, Beecham’s Pills, and Atkinson’s Gout Remedy.
