no strong liquors. The latter inAames the blood,
and the former gives the absorbing vessels too much
to do, thus causing additional heat. If you must
drink Let it be soda water or light acid wines.
Mostenng the mouth and throat with solution of

had better stsrt for the country at once. Above all
things, preserve an equable frame of mind.
