Excerpt from Sea-Bathing: Its Use and Abuse
Many imagine that the immersion of the body in the sea at a particular hour of the day, continued for a certain period, constitutes sea-bathing, while others are persuaded that salt-water is in its effects as harmless as fresh, and that lil its use one may at pleasure pursue either the promptings of instinct or the erroneous calculations of an uneducated judg ment. Others again are aware of its dangers, but the pleasure of gratifying one's whim at the risk of discomfort, disease, or even death, does not restrain them. What seems more natural, being at the sea shore, than to enter the water, remain in it as long as possible, and after the necessary change of toilet.
