CULT OF THE NUDE.
BERLIN SOCIETY CRAZE. BERLIN, October 29. r Jlie cult of the nude has reached such proportions in Germany that a highclass club has been formed, with its headquarters at Wellenbad, a famous swimming pool, where a moving wall at one end produces an artificial surf. Between 6 a.m. and 9 a.m. it is closed to the public, and open to members tinly. The club consists of Berlin society men and women, and the members include at least one Prince, and several barons and baronesses, "who mingle with each other both in the water and out of it without the slightest embarrassment, and take refreshments at the tables in the same unclad state. The club is merely one of many similar clubs in Berlin, the members of which regard themselves as serious devotees of a healthy cult of nature. The clubs are registered with the police," who on no occasion have interfered with their activities. '
