Any one who has INDUCED in the hcaIthtul

is marked reduction OF muscular power and
endurance. One tires quickly In such water
Garry the effort furth"- ard tho r.ucc..s may

therefore avoid any considerable cffor, in

The reaction to the cool plunge is all the
more positive and beneficial after active
