DR. BROOKS OPINION.
DR.. C. w. p Brock replies TO the oues-
ton as follows:
I'm my opinion, the diet during hot
weather should consist principally OF
fruits, vegetables. light white meats
fresh fish, etc. and these should be taken
in moderate quantities"
DIR. cARRINGroNs VIEWS.
DIR. Charles V. Darlington says:
IT recommend diet for hot weather or
plenty OF fresh fruits and vegetables,
with but little, II any, meat. Confine
your drinks to pure water-not James
river straight"-snd don't drink when
overheated. Plenty OF water. though, Is
a good thing, as it keeps the pores OF the
skin active. and that is conducive to good
health"
