PERFECT VENTILATION

Perfect ventilation, so desirable in a bath establishment, has been secured by one of the most complete and elaborate systems ever installed in a bath room. Fresh air is constantly forced in and the foul air removed. The heavy, sultry atmosphere, so characteristic of the ordinary Turkish bath is unknown here.
Last, but not least, among the cleanly features of the Silurian Baths is the water. Silurian water requires no filtering. It comes from a subterraneous source and is always clear and sparking. A bath in such water is a bath in fact as well as in name.

A TRIUMPH OF INGENUITY

LARGEST SWIMMING POOL

The bathing department is equipped with every practical appliance for thorough and luxurious bathing that modern ingenuity can devise. A feature of this department is the largest swimming pool—the largest pool of its kind in the west—twenty feet wide, one hundred feet long and ten feet deep. The water in this pool is always kept at the uniform temperature of seventy degrees. Here one may enjoy a refreshing swim in mineral water without inconvenience or discomfort.

A MINERAL WATER TUB AND TURKISH BATH IN ONE.

In adjoining rooms to the swimming pool are many solid cement tubs, separated one from another by cement partitions. On the other side of the rooms are cement rubbing slabs, also separated by cement partitions. Conveniently located are two needle shower baths where the temperature may be regulated to suit the individual. Connected with these departments are hot and vapor rooms constructed after the most approved design. There are also two Electric Light Bath Cabinets of the very latest design.
After the bath comes the cooling rooms, large cheerful apartments, where the bather is wrapped
