How Necessary It Is to the Good Health of the Body. You may remember the advice that we gave you in Chat, a year or so ago, about drlnktnr a glass of water ev ery night. Just before going to bed. Here's something of a similar nature from the Youth's Companion: When it is considered that the body is made up very largely of water, it can readily be understood how lni IKirtant to health is a constant supply of this lluid. Many people have a no tion that the drinking of water In any quantity beyond that actually neces sary to quench thirst, Is injurious, and acting on tills belief they endeavor to drink as little as possible. Tho no tion, however, Is wide of the truth. Drinking freely of pure water is a most elTicaclous means, not only of preserving health, but often of restor ing it when falling. All the tissues of tho body need water, and water in nbundance is necessary also for the proper perform ance of every vital function. Cleanli ness of the tissues within tho body Is as necessary to health nnd comfort as cleanliness of the skin, and water tends to insure the one as truly as It does .the other. It dissolves the waste ran torlal, which would otherwise collect In the body, nnd removes It In the various excretions. These waste materials are often ac tual poisons, nnd many a headache, many rheumatic pains and aches, many sleepless nights and listless days, and many attacks of the "blues," are duo solely to the circulation In the blood or deposit in tho tissues of these waste materials, which cannot bo cot rid of because of nn insufficient supply of water. Water Is accused of making fat, and people with a tendency to corpulenca avoid it for that reason. Hut tills Is not strictly true. It does undoubtedly often Increase the weight, but It does so because it improves tho digestion nnd therefore more of the food eaten is utilized and turned Into fat nnd flesh. Hut excessive fat, what we call corpu lence, Is not a sign of health but of faulty digestion and assimilation, and systematic, water-drinking Is often em ployed 11V a means of reducing the su perfluous fat which It sometimes does wth astonishing rapidity.

FAT FEES PAID TO EMINENT LAWYERS HIGH AWARDS TOR PROFES SIONAL SERVICES. Fortunes Mnde In Bringing About Consolidations of Interest Mr. Reed's Guaranty S2D0,000 for "Yes" What Is Spent Yearly in Attorneys Fees. l'rom the Chlcaso Tribune. Hlg lawyers and their big fees Is an Interesting topic on which people were set to talking tho other day by tho re port that Levy Mayer was paid $500,000 for his work In selling the Ogdon Gas company to Chicago Gas Trust. If this enormous feu was nctua'lly re ceived by Mr. Mayer It was tho largest ever paid for legal services In a single case In the United States. Among recent big fee, and conting ent earnings, Azel F. Hatch Is said to have secured a total of $3.10,000 from tho promotion of the American Hide and Leather company, only $20,000 of the nmount being for purely legal ser vices. Max Pain and E. T. Glennon, It Is claimed, were made $305,000 richer by their legal connection with the for mation of the American Steel and Wire company, the bulk of the sum being obtained by taking advantage of In side Information. A New York llrm received a fee of $100,000 In tho forma tion of this company. Harry Rubens won a fortune of $200, -000 as promoter and legal adviser of tho Republic Steel and Iron company, and E. H, Gary was paid $50,000 for legal work In organizing the Federal Steel company, of which he Is now president at a salary of $7ii,000 a year. Mr. Gary's contingent earnings were also large. Moran, Kraus & Mayer re ceived $250,000 for three years' work In the old Whisky Trust litigation nnd In the formation of the American Spirits association. The same firm got $100, 000 for services In reorganizing tho Hlue Island Electric Storage Line. Ed win Walker is said to have received a fee of $200,000 for his services In light ing the reorganization committee of the old Whisky Trust in behalf of J. H. Greenhut anil Nelson Morris. John P. Wilson and Jacob Newman are Chicago lawyers credited with having earned $15,000 fees in recent litigation. ONE SMALL FEE. When It was reported a few weeks ago that James Brooks Dill, the New York corporation lawyer, had received $1,000,000 as his fee in tho Carnegle Frlck suit and reorganization, many newspapers printed his portrait and sketches of his career. Public Interest was focused upon the man and his methods as never before. Hut Mr. Dill himself neutralized this Interest to a great extent when, ns later reports had it. he told some of his friends that his fee was only a paltry $250,000, In stead of $1,000,000. Hig fees for lawyers of ability and high professional standing are not so uncommon in this country ns they were In earlier years. This is doubt less owing to the centralization of capital and largo business Interests, wherein perplexities and causes for litigation sometimes arise Involving millions. In such a contingency it Is deemed both wise and In the long run economical to engage only the ablest lawyer, and to pay him freely and generously, no matter how exorbitant Ills fee 'may seem. William M. Evarts, one of the most honored men In the legal profession, was paid a fee of $250,000 for giving a legal opinion which ho expressed in just one word of three letters. "Yes" was the word and tho opinion was rendered upon tho request of a great corporation which had a difficulty on hand involving millions and. threaten ing tho existence of the corporate body. Tho question was wholly one of the correct interpretation of the law, and when tho regular attorney for the cor poration put this vitally Important question to the great lawyer, with the previous understanding that the inter ested parties would abide by his de cision, win or lose. Mr. Evarts sat burled in thought for a minute, and the answered In one word, "Yes," Ills bill for that one word was $250,000, and the corporation paid It without a mur mur. His answer proved to be entirely correct. GENERAL HARRISON'S PAY. When former President Henjamln Harrison returned from Paris last fall, where he had been engaged in the Venezuelan arbitration case as coun sel for the A'enezuelan government, It was reported that he had received a fee of $250,000. General Harrison has commanded large fees In many other cases for legal services. When the Sugar Trust organized under the laws of New Jersey, Lawyer John E. Parsons was employed to draw up the agreement under which that reorganization was effected. For this work ho rendered a bill for $250,000, which was paid by check without ques tion or dissent. It may have been easy for ilr. Parsons to draw up those articles, and It may have been dllll cult, but the knowledge nnd experi ence with the work called for he had gained by long years of hard study nnd application. It was probably more to recompense himself for those years of effort than for tho timo he actually spent In drawing up the Sugar Trust agreement that ho demanded a big fee. What a few years ago was sold to be the largest fee ever received by any lawyer up to that time was ono for $260,000, which was paid to W. N. Cromwell, the attorney who settled up the tangled nffalrs of Decker, Howell & Co. The difference between tho $250,000 fees paid to Evarts and Par sons and tho $260,000 fee paid to Crom well was that the two former earned their money by regular work In tho routine of their profession, while Cromwell got his big fee by settling up tho affairs of a great firm and under tho laws of tho state of New York he was entitled to 5 per cent, of tho money Involved. "Wayne MacVeagh, of Pennsylvania, was given a fee of $100,000 by the Pull man Palace Car company for his legal work In a suit brought by the Central Transportation company against his client. lie has received other fees in Important cases representing what many men would consider uood-shed fortunes. WANTS A MILLION DOLLAR FifE. Thurlow Weed Haines, of New Yoik, a year or two ago brought suit against the American-China Development company for $1,000,000, which he claim ed as his Just feo for services In ob taining railroad and other concessions from tho Imperial Chinese goverment through the Chinese minister at "Wash ington. His work required tho clever skill of the promoter, us that function ary Is understood lu these times, as The People's Exchange.
