In the sun, however, the Their monleter
may register 100 degrees to 115 degrees,
and at thethottest period of the day may
give 102 degrees or 103 degrees IN the
shade. Then the outside heat may be
greater than that of the human body in
repose. But at other periods of the day
the temperature is notably less, while
our own heat tends to remain perman-
emily at the same degree. In short, dur
ing the greater portion of the day, even
in the hottest summer, the body temper
allure, in some of our organs at least,
is above the surrounding temperature.
These remarks do not apply to the few
people who work in the sun, but to the
great proportion who labor in the shade.

Leaving aside any consideration of
our exterior apparel, we will say that
most of us, during this exercise, wear
white stuff next to the skin. Yet such
garments will reflect heat from our
bodies more when the temperature out
side is greater than it is inside of them,
and to our bodies more when the excess
of temperature is in the blood. In the
vast majority of cases, therefore, we
put on such garments preferable in sum
mer when they generally serve as re-
tainers of heat. In outer clothing we
make another error in wearing fabrics
which do not absorb moisture readily
and tend to keep stratum of air satur-
ated with it over the skin, thus prevent
ing evaporation, and consequently re-
frigeration. Besides, what retains moist
ure retains heat, and what retains both
is, SO far, doubly injurious. This is just
the way white linen clothes operate.

wear, in the heat of the sun, anything
lighter in weight or color than a dark

plain. There are wool ribbons that
look like Astrakhan bands, SO thick and

other extreme wool ribbons as thin as

that satin only appears as reVers or ac-

new IDEAS ABOUT DRESS.

White Best for Winter and Black for
Summer.
In recent article published in The
Nesc OfEeGns Medicat and Su sgicGl Jour
nal, DIR. Thomas Herbert points out what
he believes to be serious popular fall
lacy concerning summer wearing APP
parel. 1--WE have been taught, he says,
shat white bodies reflect heat and dark
ones absorb it. We saw for ourselves
that snow melted much faster under
dark cloth than it did under white
fabric. The inference was that we should
wear white cloth in summer, because it
absorbs less and reflects more, and dark
cloth in winter for the opposite reason.
This is an error which has grown into q
pernicious habit. The temperature of
the body, as taken by the thermometer,
is about 981 degrees. This would make
the blood temperature 1O0 degrees.
Probably more. Now. the general blood
temperature is much on a parallel with
the outside atmosphere temperature
during the greater portion of the sum
mer, with tendency to be higher, even
in the repose of the body, and this ten
dency is much increased by exercise.

was arrested on a charge of shooting Mr..
Wiber Stages. Both parties being men of

said:

case of self defense, and the justice was

stronger and better than ever before. Its spe.

sort will be adhered to. 1t will advocate, de-
scribe and illustrate bicycling and tricycling,
yachting, canoeing, tennis playing, the various
forms of pleasure travel, physical culture, and
the intelligent study and enjoyment o~fnature.
Outing will be of interest not only to those
who practice one or more of the active recrea-
tons, but to all who enjoy breezy description,
apt and artistic illustration, first-class fiction,
and a pervading flavor of the woods and hills.

A more glorious victory cannot be gained
over another man than this, that when the
injury began on his part the kindness
should begin or ours.
Happiness dotes on her work and is prod
igal to her favorite. AS one drop of water
hath an attraction for another, SO do felici-
ties run into felicities.
What a man knows should find it's ex-
preston in what he does. The value ofsu-
perior knowledge is chiefly in that it leads
to a performing manhood.
True greatness consists in doing what
deserves to be written, in writing what de-
serves to be read, and in making mankind
better and happier for our life.
To live is not merely to breathe; it is to
act; it is to make use of all our organ
functions and faculties. This alone gives
us the consciousness of existence.
He that sy%mpathizes in all the happiness
of others enjoys the safest happiness, and
he that is warned by the folly of others has
attained the soundest wisdom.
Fine sense and exalted sense are not half
so valuable as common sense. There are
forty men of wit to one of common sense,
and he that will carry nothing about him
but gold, will be every day at a loss for
reader change.
Seek not to please the world, but your
own conscience, The man who has a feel
ing within him that he has done his duty
upon every occasion is far happier than he
who hangs upon the smiles of the great or
the still more tickle favors of the multi
tude.
Do good to all men, as You have the OPP
p%ortunity. Deal out kindness and fayors
with an unsparing hand. The cause you
understand not, search out. If you can
not find happiness by direct search, try
another plan. Make others happy, and
see if that does no make you truly blessed.
