a
Your Health,
The First
Concern.
“There are many people who have
developed a hot-weather complex.
Their minds are absolutely set to a
discomforting existence so long as
summer remains. They fret, they
worry and they complain. They fre-
quently run to the thermometer, and
noticing a rise, promptly become hot-
ter and more miserable.
“While a hot, sticky atmosphere
certainly is not as comfortable as a
sharp, cool one, there is very little
advantage in complaining about it.
Why not make the best rather than
the worst of it. Why not try to keep
cool instead of deliberately getting
hotter?
“As a matter of fact, habits have
much to do with keeping cool in sum-
mer time. A bit of applied care, and
a great deal less complaining will re-
move much of the actual or imagined
discomfort of the super-heated sea-
son.
“For example, there is the question
of food. The body actually requires
less nourishment in summer than
during any other season of the year.
The heat-producing foods should
therefore be decidedly curtailed;
these include starchy foods, sweets
and meats.
“It is positively surprising what a
difference will be noted if the sum-
mer diet is in the main reduced to
wvegtables and fruit. This will in no
case create a hardship. Moreover,
a strict adherence to this rule will
still permit the use of the heavier
foods on the cool days which in
Pennsylvania are mingled with the
more torrid ones.
“So here are the rules for hot
weather living: —
“1. Eat sparingly of meats, starchy
foods and sweets—they are heat pro-
ducers.
“2, Exercise. (a long walk pref-
erably) after sun-down.
“3,” Avoid excessive exercise in the
hot sun, particularly if over forty
years of age.
“4, Keep the alimentary tract open.
“5, A daily bath.
“6. And finally, but by no means
the least important, banish the hot
weather complex.
“While following the above rules
will not reduce the temperature out-
side of you, it will reduce your hot
attitude toward heat. Remember, it
always pays, under all circumstances,
to keep cool!”
White bread, polished rice, white
sugar, and other highly refined pro-
ducts, are not poisonous. It is true
that they have been largely deminera-
lized and devitaminized, but they are
still good fuel foods, and will not poi-
son in the slightest degree, unless
they are taken in such excess that not
enough other foods which would sup-
ply their deficiencies, could be taken.
However, if liberal amounts of fruits
and vegetables and the proper
amounts of milk, meat and eggs are
taken, there is no reason why those
who like white bread and polished
rice should not take them, if they
want them.
Another count against the excess
consumption of white bread, polished
rice and other purified products, is
that they leave an acid ash. But for
that matter, so do all grains, whole
or refined. The diet should have a
preponderance of the alkali-ash foods
—fruits, nuts, milk and vegetables.
It is better for children to have the
whole grain breads and cereals, for
they need so much energy or fuel
food that it is wise to have this prin-
ciple of their diet also contain the
vitamines and mineral elements which
they also need in great amounts.
Many people who suffer from or-
dinary constipation should also have
the whole grain breads and cereals.
Pernicious anemia, dread disease
which destroys the vitally necessary
red corpuscles of the blood ‘and
leads to eventual death of those
afflicted with it, has been brought
finally under control.
Hailed as a discovery of great im-
portance, the specific substance which
- halts destruction of red blood cor-
puscles has been traced to two inter-
nal animal organs—the liver and
kidney.
Reporting on the results of their
experiments in feeding liver and kid-
ney to scores of persons suffering
with pernicious anemia, a group of
physicians from eastern cities de-
scribed to the 10,000 delegates and
visitors in attendance at the conven-
tion dramatic experiences in the use
of the new treatment. Included
among the physicians who are credit-
ed with developing the new treatment
were Dr. George H. Whipple, of Ro-
chester, N.Y.; Dr.George R.Minot,
of Boston; Dr. James H. Means, of
Boston; Dr. Randolph West,of New
York City; Dr. E. H. Heath, of Balti-
more, and Dr. Thomag Ordway, of Al-
bany, N. Y.
The physicians reported that al-
though the red blood corpuscles
count of ‘patients had fallen to 1,000,-
000 per cubic millimeter or less, as
compared with a normal count of
5,000,000, feeding of. liver as a promi-
nent part of the daily diet quickly
raised the red blood corpuscles count
toward the normal level.
The section on Pharmacclogy and
therapeutics, before which the re-
ports of liver treatment were read,
was cautioned, however, that the
treatment must be maintained, or the
patient will suffer a relapse after re-
covery has apparently been achieved.

Decree of Authority
Subject to Discount
The late Leonard W. Wood was
commiserated with by a reporter, one
day in Washington, on the apparent
neglect meted ous to him during the
World war and on the harsh judgment
that had been passed upon his admin-
istration of the Philippines.
General Wood changed the subject,
but afterward, as the reporter was
about to go, he told a story.
“When we are judged,” he said, “we
must consider our judges, We must
judge our judges, so to speak.
“Joe Childs, perhaps, was the great-
est jockey in the world. He won al-
most every big race; some of them
he had won three or four times over:
the king’s jockey, you know.
“Well, during the war Joe enlisted
in a cavalry regiment, and they sent |
him to a riding school at the Curragh
in Ireland to be trained.
“When he mounted his horse at the
Curragh school the riding master said
to him:
“‘Have you ever ridden before?
“ ‘Yes, once or twice,’ said Joe.
“Yes, said the riding master, with
a disgusted laugh, ‘on a donkey at
the zoo, I guess. Why, you've got the
worst seat on a horse I ever saw in
my life!”
Electric Furnace One
of Scientific Freaks
When men can thrust their bare
hands into an electric furnace that
melts metal with ease, it would seem
that there is such a thing as cold heat.
White miee, too, will run about in
this furnace without suffering any ill-
effects, while an interior of a wireless
valve can be heated to incandescence
without heating the glass bulb itself.
The secret is that the furnace heats
only electrical conductors, being @
high-frequency inductance furnace.
It is in the manufacture of wireless
valves that one of the most interest-
ing uses of this furnace is found. Just
before the valve is sealed from the
vacuum pump it is placed for a mo-
ment within a high-frequency coil.
The metal parts immediately become
red hot and the bubbles of gas and
vapor are boiled out. The valve is
then sealed from the pump with the
knowledge that the later heating of
the valve by the filament will not
cause further release of bubbles.
Like Dynamite
There is nothing that a man will
not do for the woman he truly loves!
There is a type of woman who knows
this and who, after having won the
devoted love of a man, proceeds to
use that love as a mean of gaining her
purely selfish ends.
Many a woman of this type is hope-
lessly extravagant. She knows that her
husband will make any sacrifice to
gratify even her slightest whim. But
she often does not know that the very
love which makes him spoil her will
make him violently condemn her if she
indulges in dangerous indiscretions.
Love is somewhat like dynamite. It
properly handled, it can serve the
most useful of purposes. If treated
carelessly, it can cause havoc and
even death.—True Story Magazine.
University Defined
American Universities and Colleges
says that in the United States a uni-
versity is an institution of higher
learning. comprising a college or col-
leges of arts, literature and science—
historically the first part of the Amer-
ican university to come into exist-
ence—and professional colleges or
schools of law, medicine, theology, ete.,
and especially a graduate school of
arts, literature and science. In ad-
dition to schools and colleges de-
voted to instruction and research, the
university includes divisions of lab-
oratories, libraries and museums,
and sometimes & university press and
research institutes. Not every institu-
tion which calls itself a university
measures up to this definition.
Food Regquisites
According to Prof. V. H. Mottram,
an adult woman needs but 2,500 calo-
ries a day. An aduit man engaged in
sedentary occupation requires 3,000
calories daily. A man doing hard
work should have 5,000 calories. The
physiological reason given is that the
feminine organization utilizes food
more economically than man. A child’s
food should not be proportioned ac:
cording to his age, as he requires
more than half the food of an adult.
Beys and girls of fourteen are to be
considered as adults in food ultiliza-
tion,
Care of Ferns
Give your fern water only when
you see the surface of the soil is dry.
Then submerge pot in water for ten
minutes. This will mean that every
particle of soil in the pot is saturated.
Whenever you water the roots spray
the tops. Keep plant in a room where
there is plenty of fresh air. Florists
ventilate their fern houses twice each
day. Set the fern outdoors whenever
there is a warm rain, As soon as pos-
sible set the plant on the shady side
of your porch.
Easily Pleased
Rastus had gotten into the clutches
of the law and was talking things
over with his lawyer.
“1 think,” said the attorney, “1 can
set the jury to exonerate.”
“Boss,” said Rastus, “Ah don't crave
to be exonerated. Ah just wants te
de let loose.”

‘time when circular broadcloth skirts
. were in vogue, the short fur jacket
had not been revived to go with them.
Happily, it has been, and Redfern
, shows several examples in beaver and
| golden seal which are most original
iand attractive. For these, he has
‘adopted the quaint, semi-fitted, sin-
| gle-breasted jacket, rounding up at
‘the front and, oddly enough, belted
with suede leather. In beaver, with
a swaying circular skirt of castor
broadcloth to match, this makes a
handsome outfit.

skirts, and M. Patou astonished his
first night audience by an afternoon
gown with a deep and narrow V-shap-
ed split, also in the back. As backs
grow in importance, the Rue de la
Paix believes the effectiveness of fa-
cial good looks will diminish. Stud-
ied simplicity will characterize the
smart woman, but she will produce
the greatest effect when she turns
around.
Enormous bows have been added
to the back of some formal frocks,
and others are adorned with large
enamelled or diamonded buckles. An-
other treatment of the back consists
in trimming it with tassels in red and
blue beads in both diamonds and
enamel. Beaded shoulder straps that
i continue down the back of the dress
in strings of colored beads also are
seen.
—Even in hats has the new ten-
dency made itself apparent. Whether
it’s the ubiquitous beret or poke-bon-
net felt, stitching and trimming con-
tinue to be seen either at the back or
the side. A new and fashionable col-
or, tilleul or linden yellowish green,
just introduced, has been chosen by
Reboux for several of her chic berets.
These continue the choice of sev-
eral smart American women. They
are equally popular in velvet, chenille
felt or satin, and in a variety of col-
ors such as black-and-white, brown
and beige and linden. The -cloche
shape, so popular several seasons ago,
is making efforts to return to fashion.
The new cloche crown is higher, an
the brim is yet sufficiently large to
be undulating.
The poke-bonnet, in its convention-
al or modified form, still is being
sponsored by Agnes. She has made
several models in black felt, with tiny
white grosgrain ribbon, with a dainty
rosette of the same material in the
front or at the side.
—1It is easier to turn ugly elbows
into pretty ones than to change any
other part of the body. In five min-
utes you can transform your elbows;
and that very nearly means trans-
forming your arms from ugly into
pretty arms.
Scrub them first with a hand brush,
hot water and a good deal of soap.
Then dry and rub them with cream.
It should really be flesh-building
cream, which the skin takes up, rath-
er than cleansing or ordinary cream.
But even this will do, for the skin is
dry from the scrubbing and needs
lubricating.
The cream must be rubbed in thor-
oughly and the surplus wiped off with
soft tissue or an old cloth or a piece
of absorbent cotton. This is if you are
not going out and not wearing sleeves
that cover the elbows, for instance,
if this is a bedtime treatment. If you
are going out, wash the cream off the
elbows. You can remove almost all
of it by an ordinary washing, leaving
in the skin just enough to make it
smooth looking.
Or better yet, reverse the process,
and rub cream into the elbows first,
hot water and soap, rinse and dry
them. This leaves them soft, clean
and a fresh pink, and with most of
the lines and wrinkles gone. But for
real smoothness, follow this by rub-
bing with vanishing cream or some
good almond-oil emulsion such as is
used for the hands, and by thick
powdering. A vanishing cream is
best, for it gets well into the pores, is
usually mildly astringent, and won’t
work out on the surface of the skin
ag easily as a hand emulsion.
Daily care means scrubbing, and
rubbing with cream at bedtime to
feed thin or dry or dirty-looking
elbows. .
—If you do not possess an old me-
dium-sized powder puff, one of the
thick kind, buy one for 10 cents. You
will never be hunting bits of cloth
again to clean your white shoes. Af-
ter you dampen it, you saturate one
side for one shoe and the other side
for the other, and you can clean sev-
eral pairs before you find another rag
which is torn before the shoe is half
cleaned. I've used mine two summers
now, and it looks good for another
