SNOW “A TURKISH BATH”

Chicago Health Department Regards Flakes as a Boon. f Chicago, Dec. 28. —“The poor man’s Turkish bath” is a new synonym for “beautiful snow,” which is given in the weekly bulletin of the Chicago health department “Snow serves to clean the air better than anything else,” says the bulletin. “Air during and after a snow storm is good to breathe. Why not try it? To get out in a snow storm and exercise actively—the snow striking you in the sac invigorating and stimulating. It makes the cheeks glow ; it is fine tor the complexion ; it stimulates the heart and causes tbe body fluids to clean out, the body waste places. It makes the nerves tingle. It is the poor man’s Turkish bath.”
