One Of the Largest Pine Rats Ever
lowed on Lake Superior.

Ontonagon. Mich. July 25.-One Of
the largest RATS of pine logs ever
towed on Lake Superior has just been

tate at Baraga after a long voyage
from the head of the lake. The timber
was cut during the winter in the Goose
berry River district. on the north
shore. and aggregated about 1000. 1000
feet. The raft was towed by the Vigi-
liant. one of the most powerful tugs on
the lakes. while another accompanied
the outfit. looking after the logs which
broke loose from the booms. An
average of a mile per hour was made,
and more than two weeks We're re-
quired for the trip the south shore be-
ing hugged quite closely to prevent a
wide scattering Of the logs should the
raft go to pieces. No storms were en-
cOuntered. however. and no logs were
lost. The timber is of good size and of
excellent quality.

A Glass of Cold Water.

Nature Is the best medicine If men
would but follow her, sickness would
vanish from the world. For example
drink glass of cold water each morn
ing upon arising. Nothing simpler
than that. Breathe deeply and regu-
larly for few moments. If you are
at desk work and are beginning to
stoop, stand erect and lean back sew
eral times as far as you can. Try to
touch the floor with the back of your
head. There is no danger of your do
ing 1t, so do not be afraid to try. All
three of these exercises will not re-
quire five minutes. Repeat them three
times day, preferably before each
meal. After a month of this sort of
thing you will be surprised at the ben
eft received. OF the water cure the
Chicago Tribune says:
Sleep has drawn upon the water in the
blood, and the instinct of the animal, un-
der natural conditions is to replenish the
vessels anew. The food in the stomach
which had so much to do toward inducing
sleep has disappeared, leaving a mucous
substance In the alimentary canals. Yet
man would wash his face and leave these
half clogged canals to the duties of an
other day.
Drink a glass of cold water in the name
Of cleanliness. 1t becomes one of the
shortest and easiest of toilet duties. 1t
is swallowed in a second, and in five min
utes It has passed from the stomach, TAX
ing with 1t the clogging secretions Of the
alimentary tracts. 1t has left behind the
stimulus that goes with cold water. and by
filling the arterial system to the normal
1t puts a spur to the circulation that has
grown sluggish in the night. 1t is one of
the greatest of awakeners and one of ma
ture's own stimulants.
Drink a glass of water before break
fast. another before luncheon and another
before dinner. Water Is the best, cheapest
and pleasantest medicine.
Keeping well is an easy matter for
the average man or woman if you only
follow few simple, rules.
