There Is a widespread use of the va por or Turkish bath. Even In arctic Lapland the use of a Turkish bath of very primitive form Is common. It consists of a hut attached to every farm. In the middle of the hut Is raised a kind of beehive of rough stones, and in this a fire is lighted. When the stones become red hot they are drenched with water, so that the place is filled with vapor. Then enter the bathers, who are armed with birch twigs, with which they belabor one an other until all are In a state of profuse perspiration. Then all leave the but and roll In the snow outside. This last function, it will be observed, is equiva lent to tbe cold plunge, which is the final experience In tbe Turkish bath, as known to oa alL-Uarper's. From a health standpoint it is more important to brush the teeth than wash the face on rising Modern Dentists Depot St. and Adams Ave. La Grande '0TICE OF FINAL SETTLE MEM.
