Robertson of Junean 2 splendid falk on the OUR FIRST BATH TUB the name of Thompson, a prominent resident of Cincinnati, borrowed the idea from Lord John Russell, of Eng land; and had the first Americ made bath tub installed in home. on day, having party of gentlumen to dinner, he exhibited the new marvel to them and gave an exhibition of its use and four of them risked plunge: into it. The mnext day all Cin iati _heard of it and the loe: ers opened their column to violent discussions of it. On the one hand it de. nounced as an epicurean and ob noxious toy from England, de ed to corrupt the demaocratic simplicity republic nd on the other hand it was tack od by the medical faculty as dan gerqus to health. It wa dent Millard Fillmore that gave the bath tub recognition and re spectability in the United States While he was still Vice President, in ch, 1850, he visited Cin c¢inati on a stumping tour, and Inspected the original Thompson tub: Fillmore was entertained in this house and, according to « mberlain, his biographer, took a bath in the tub. Experiencing no ill effects, he became an ar- dent advocate of the new inven- tion, and on sncceeding to the Presidency at Taylor’s death, July 9, 1850, he instructed his Secre- tary of War, General Charvles M Conrad, to invite tenders for the construction of a bath tub in the White House, This' action, for a moment, re- vived the old controversy, and its opponents made much of he fact that there was no bath tub at Mount Vernon'or at Monticello, and¢that all the Presidents and other magnificoes of the past had got along without any such mon- archial luxuries. But Congress, disregarding all this clamor, duly ealled for bids, and the contract was presently awarded to a firm of Philadelphia engineers, who proposed to furnish a tub of thin cast irop, capable of floating the largest man. This was installed early in 1851 and remained in serviee in the White House until the ‘first Cleveland administration, when l.hz,‘ present enameled tub was ‘sdbstituted. The example of the President soon broke down all that remained of the old opposi- tion, and by 1860, according to the newspaper advertisements of the time, every hotel in New Yorkk had a bath tub, and some had two and even three.
