Nearly everybody has been agreeably
surprised at the readiness with which
eur soldiers have adjusted themselves TO
tropical climate. The heat of our most
Southern camps seems neither to de-
strOy the vigor nor dampen the enthu-
siasm of our soldier boys. Even the ter
rife heat of Cuba during the worst of
the hot season has been braved by our
troops, and while a few prostrations from
heat have been reported. the amount OF
sickness has been astonish!ngly small
compared with what was generally ex-
pected. OF course. the boys have taken
care Of themselves. Everything that san
itary preeaution could suggest has been
observed. The food supply has been good
and abundant. Surgical and medical pro-
visions of our army cannot be excelled
gone SO far as 10 provide themselves
with old ard tried remedies against heat,
fatigue and exposure. Among these
remedies Pe-Tu-na seems 10 be the
favorite with the most of the boys. Two
letters recently received by DR.. Hartman

cerned with the welfare of our soldiers:
