"It is cool in Michigan," is a phrase that draws tens of thousands of people to this part of the United States from Texas and other southern States, every summer season. There are two hundred small lakes in the vicinity of Battle Creek and several thousand in the State, and the beauty of the walks and the public roads, can hardly be adequately described.

The beautiful maples, elms, lindens and catalpas which line the streets and fill the numerous lovely parks, are the home of hundreds of big black and grey fox squirrels, which scamper about the trees and play with children in the parks.

THE MEDICal Staff.

The Battle Creek Idea embodies all the most improved and most scientific methods of combating disease. There are no violent heroic measures, no empirical formulas, no secret methods employed. The system is simply a rational plan of leading the individual out of suffering and inefficiency into health, comfort and useful activity.

The medical corps of the Sanitarium comprises more than thirty physicians and from three to four hundred nurses and attendants, the number varying with the season of the year. The leading physicians of the Battle Creek Sanitarium have been connected with the institution for ten to forty years and all of them have been especially trained for the work in the best medical institutions of this country and Europe.

The most popular breakfast foods originated here. Toasted cereal flakes are a Battle Creek Sanitarium idea which has won favour throughout the world.

It is interesting to note the ever increasing appreciation of the work of the institution on the part of the medical profession. This is clearly shown in the fact that the family of patients always includes many physicians and from inquiry I learned that a large proportion of the patients are referred here by their family physicians.

In looking over the annual report I found that among thousands of others admitted last year as patients there were one hundred and fifty-six attorneys; one hundred and eight bankers; ten judges; three hundred and thirty-six students; twenty-one publishers; one hundred and eighty-one teachers; four senators; seven editors; twenty-eight presidents; two hundred and twenty nurses, and two hundred and eighteen physicians.

Provision is made for the care of the sick and poor, as well as for those who are able to pay. The case of the poorest sufferer receives the same painstaking, careful investigation as that of the wealthiest patient.

NORTHERN ONTARIO

HE Great Clay Belt of Northern Ontario
extends westerly from the inter-provin-

TH

cial boundary between Quebec and On-
tario for over 400 miles-varying in depth,
north and south, from 25 to 100 miles and
more. It is safe to say that from 65 to 75
per cent. of this vast expanse is good farm
land. The soil is rich and deep and produces
in abundance practically all crops grown in
Older. Ontario.

RAILROADS-A settler can ride from the
big cities of Ontario or the West in a Pullman
if he wishes almost to his own door. This is
something new in pioneer life. Note that this
fertile land is one degree south of Winnipeg.
The climate is ideal for perfect health; warm
in summer, cold and invigorating in winter.

The land is well watered with lakes and
rivers and covered with merchantable timber.
