IT MAY seem superfuous to many TO
advise them to keep cool when the mer-
curry is waltzing around in the upper nine
ties and occasionally overlapping the
hundred; hut that is just when most PEG.
pie need to be told to keep cool and how
to keep cool.
Don't fret over the hot weather; that
only makes it ten or twenty degrees hot
ter. The only way to keep cool physically
is to keep cool mentally. and guide every
effort to attain tranquility and comfort.
Quiet and rest are indispensable; take all
that eau be got.
All who can avoid exposure to the hot
rays Of the sun should so so. Those who
can do 80, should always be protected by
umbrellas; those who can't, should have
damp linen or leaves in their hats. 1t is
always Of the utmost moment not only to
keep cool as possible generally, but it is
specially necessary To keep the head cool;
and there is no man strong enough to
stand exposure to the sun Of the last few
days without more or less danger to
health.
Eat moderately and drink moderately.
aud eat and drink only wholesome food
and beverages. Whisky and beer don't
help to keep COOL too much ice water only
aggravates the heat OF the system, and
ovcreating or unwholesome diet multiply
the perils of a severely heated term. A
little raspberry vinegar or a little pinch of
red pepper in a glass OF ice water will not
only aid in quenching thirst. but both are
grateful tones
Above all, keep cool; if you can't keep
comfortably cool. keep cool as you can.
and don't worry about the failure, as
worry will only make the failure worse.
Persons in good health eau always make
themselves reasonably comfortable by
obeying the simple laws of commons sense,
and they should be thankful for what
they enjoy and ever thoughtful of the sick
and helpless whose sutferngs are %intcnsi-
fed by the severity Of the season,

In this tribute to very dear de-
parted brother, | have had no desire
to indulge in fulsome flattery. We
have sympathized with each other in

greet you on the other shore.
