Excerpt from The Mineral Waters of the United States and Their Therapeutic Uses: With an Account of the Various Mineral Spring Localities, Their Advantages as Health Resorts, Means of Access, Etc The earliest archives of the human race mention the use of waters for medicinal purposes. The primeval mythologies as well as the most ancient historical accounts refer to the bath as of supernatural origin. Bathing was practised among the Egyptians as a sacred rite, and it was made a religious duty by Moses. It was a common custom among the Israelites to dip in Jordan in order to be delivered from the scourge of leprosy and other hopeless diseases.
