places as summer resorts, to overlook
the difference between the solar intensity
and the air temperature, and to compare
the readings Of Thermometers which,
from improper exposure Of the instru-
ments, mix up these very different val
ues. In the case cited by Professor
Frankland, the influence Of elevation
above sea level ION account of which the
higher we get, though the solar heat in
creases rapidly, the air warmth contin-
uaily decreases) makes the chief differ
ence. But, as he has shown, other causes
operate in producing agreeable climate.
"The nearer the color of the ground ap-
proaches to white, he finds, "the great
er will be the sun warmth and the cooler
the air; whilo the darker the color, the
warmer will be the air and the less will
the heat of solar radiation be felt" The
reflection from land or water also power
fully affects the felt solar intensity,
though at the seashore the floating wa
terry and saline particles 30 ell the air
tas beam of sunlight or the electric
light reveals) that they absorb the suns
heat and thus cool the air. But perhaps
the most remarkable fact addueed by
this investigator is that the highest read
ings of solar heat at sea level have been
made at station (Romsdal, Norway
near the Arctic circle and at other high
latitudes, where the suns radiation was
from 81 to 120 hotter than ut noon under
a nearly vertical sun on the equator.
This remarkable difference, confirmed by
other observations, must be ascribed to
the vast sheet of aqueous vapor over
hanging the tropical belts, which even
when invisible absorbs the suns heat
rays, but increases the warmth OF the
air.
1t seems clear from these and other
well established Chronological data that
in the crisis of the intensely cheated
tenn" the relief which so many crave
will be best had at the mountain rather
than at the seaside resorts, provided the
altitude is sufficient, and the higher the
latitude Of the former the better. But
1t also follows that as the suns dark heat
rays after warming the earth cannot re-
pass the vapor profusely overhanging
the seashore the latter resort Is longer
tenable by the invalid. People who go
to the mountains for health should go
early and wind up their summering"
at the seashore, where the thermal
changes at the close of the warm season
are not so extreme and enervating as
the high levels.

never occur in any man who~ears such

The grass above them weayes.
