HOW TO KEEP COOL.
Try and BE Good-Humorea and Carefully
Avoid the Seductive Ice.

Try and BE Good-HumOrea and Carefully
Avoid the Seductive Ice.
Now that Old Probabilities has
turned on the hot weather with firm
hand and a fervid disposition, people
will be inquiring how to keep cool.
As a matter of fact, common-sense
persons need no advice on the subject
They are cool under all circumstances
and conditions, unless it is when they
run to catch a street-car that has been
sent off by a time-keeper who has no
watch.
The way to keep cool is to keep
good-humored. There Is no doubt
that good-humored men are sometimes
warm, owing to the fact that they are
jolly and fat, but no one ever heard
them complaining about the weather
to any great extent, unless it is when
they are caught out in a shower with
out an umbrella.
The Washington Post says the way
to keep cool is to eat sparingly of meat;
but this is nonsense. The coolest and
most agreeable person on earth is the
meat-eater, and the most irritable and
unhappy is the person whose digestion
will not permit him to eat meat.
Eat lean meat-tender steak and
chickPn-with your vegetables and
you will have no trouble with the heat.
Pork should be avoided, of course; but
veal, mutton and all the vegetables.
pot-liquor and dumplings, buttermilk
and corn bread 60 to make up din
ner to be enjoyed.
Above all things let ice alone. 1t is
a most deceptive affair. 1t is not only
the indus of microbes and bacteria,
but it is unhealthy. even when it is
pure. 1t paralyzes the stomach. ruins
the digestion and leads to Bright's
disease
If you will drink. as you ought to.
drink water fresh from the spring. If
you want it seasoned, give it touch
of lemon and sugar; but let ice alone.
Ice is much colder in the summer than
it is in the winter, and it is no more
healthy at one season than at another.
We are giving some famous advice
here; but the best thing, after all, is to
keep in good humor. The good
humOred man may get too hot occa-
sionally, but it doesn't worry him; and
the man who isn't worried cares little
for the heat ATLANTA Constitution

MANNERS ~ AMERl CA.

Tney Are Not Quite lad as bishop Poe-
ter Seems 20 Think.
1. is natural. perhaps, that Bishop
of the Episcopal Church, even in
America. should put a particular
stress on the virtue of good breeding.
In his traditions, imported with his
ecclesiastical garments from England.
he is essentially of the nobility. among
whom refined manners count for more
than almost any thing else. Emerson
found the essence of religion in En-
gland to be good breeding. So per-
haps it was natural that Bishop Pot
ter. in looking over the record of a
century. should pay attention mostly
to that in which he has most interest.
He finds that a Bishop is not as
great a dignitary as he was hundred
years ago. Even Sydney Smith con-
fessed his awe of a Bishop. When he
sat next a Bishop at table, he was
nervous and rolled bread crumb be-
tween his fingers; and when he sat
next an Archbishop he rolled two.
No Bishop is awe-inspiring now. at
least in this country. 1t was Bishop
Potter who walked into a hat store
and mistook man-about-town for the
proprietor. Have you a hat like
this?" he asked, holding out his own.
The man looked it over very carefully
and replied: mo, haven't; and if l
had, I'm hanged if I'd wear it,
Within the circle of Bishops life
manners have no doubt deteriorated;
the millionaire holds his place more
for his money than his breeding and
there is a scarcity in the world of that
courtliness of manners brought over
from England and we'll maintained for
a time in Virginia in slavery days.
But outside of a Bishops circle the
change in a hundred years is alto
gether gratifying to anybody who is in
terested in the people as race. Bishop
Potter should have gone among the
crowds that filled New York for days
before his address was made. In large
part from the farming regions" says
the Sun, 1.-The great mass being the
plain people of whom Mr.. Lincoln used
to speak" Continues the Sun:
They were a self-respecting and
intelligent crowd, the like of which
can be seen in no other country. In
London, for instance, such a Sunday
could not have passed without rough
and rude, coarse and noisy demon
strations, while here men and women
bore themselves with uniform dignity
and propriety. The most interesting
part of this whole centennial festival
is to see the people whom it draws
together from every State in the
Union"
There is no doubt that American
manners can stand toning up. but
they are not as bad as the Bishop
thinks.-Milwaukee Sentinel.
