Cool and Healthy, and Live True and
Happy Life.
CULTIVATE YOUR MEMORY.
I know c. c girl who has pinned up Over
her washstand Keep the match-safe full
Sometimes it is "Wipe out the basin" or " Put
your things carefully away"
This is the method OF correcting lapse from
memory in the house whore SHE lives. 1t IS q
good one too; one that seldom fails. and saves
volumes of strength expended in angry words
and reprimaud.
Little hints like this are great aid to mem
ory. Sometimes mere cross of the pen placed
on a scrap Of paper and carried in your pocket
or pockci-book will recall 4 whole train Of
thought
Another good way to aid memory is to keeT
saying OVER and over again words you may
have heard, or a message intrusted you. Or,
YOU mag have a string tied around your finger
Anything, in fact, that makes you think twice
about the same thing is memory prompter.
WARM WEATHER HINTS.
Look out for sudden changes.
Put on extra wraps when there is a sudden
fall in the temperature.
Do not 90 driving or rowing in the night all
without extra wraps.
Make a little fire in your sitting-room when
the evenings are damp.
After a rainy spell, and everything in the
mouse is CAMP anu StiChNs Cib1b biiG " D
kindle fires and dry out the house thoroughly.
Do not keep your house darkened all the
time Once 4 day all the windows should be
thrown open and the blinds pulled up TO let the
sunshine 10 its cleaning up.
Avoid sitting down on cold stones or lying
down on the grass unless something is spread
over ii. When an Indian lies on the ground il
is in the sunshine, face down.
Do not drink too much cold water when
days are hot. after exercise. Better drink it
with the chill taken of. When you are heated
by the weather only it is not so Gnheslthful.
Few people can be long in the water, sea or
fresh, without being weakened. Fifteen or 20
minutes IS long enough for the strongest.
If YOU live a sedentary life try the sweat
cure. This means taking exercise gardening
walking. bicycling, or in any way that will
open the pores of the skin. Only be careful Of
drafts IN cooling of.
Keep the kidneys and bowels active Re-
tentioH 81 urine or constipation are the danger
warnings of the system. When there is clog
ging Of the excretory organs the waste prod
ucts are retained too long in the system, the
poisonous matter passes into the circulation,
and it is not long until ali the organs are On a
strike.
Those who lead sedentary lives and whose
respiratory organs are little used suffer most
from inacii0n Of the seeretory and excretory or
gans.
modern SCIENTIST likens the active man
to swift. bird with ample lungs, which has
been known to outstrip lightning express
train, snd the sedentary man TO frog, or turtle,
no respiratory organs, and spasmodic or sluggish
movements.
He says the man of sedentary life breathes
little, like the frog and the turtle. His life is
on low level. He has little capacity for
useful activity, because MS breathing powers
are undeveloped. Those who wish to live with

means Of active, vigorous. daily physical exer-
else. Every human being ought TO work hard
enough to sweat well every day of his life.
GOING BAREFOOT.
II is claimed that it is csnd ucive to health TO
let children ran barefoot when the weather is
fine. GladstOnc's little granddaughter, Doro-
thy, who is being brou glIt up on hygienic prin-
eiples. seldom has her shoes on. except when the
roads are 'airy or frozen. She Subscribed as the
most healthy. joyous little madcap alive. As

barefoot child without exclaiIning:
blessings on thee little man,
Barefoot boy with e4eez OF tan"
