How japanese Immigrants
Secured Money to Pass
Canadian Officials.

Vancouver, b G, May Oh
The law requires that immigrants
to- the states cannot be paupers,
but must have at least $50. The
officials were surprised during
the last week at the readiness
with Mhich the japanese came
up with their money, and had no
choice but to give them their
papers. Hundreds have been
put through in this way. This
week, however, the demand WIS
made q second time for the exhi
bition of $50 and it was found
that there was only S. among
scorce of japanese who were
leaving by stage for the United
States. They explained that they
borrowed the money to pass the
officials on and in every case spaid
high for the loan of $50 for an
hour or SO, some SO high as S5.

How to Keep Cool.

a physician says that diet is of great
Importance in keeping cool during hot
weather. Fish chicken. vegetables and
fruit are the best food. Breakfast Should
be as light as possible and principally Of
fruit. Luncheon should consist OF a veg
etnble salad and light dessert, and din
ner should be composed of soup. fish,
chicken, vegetables, salads and simple
dessert. Salads are especially desirable.
The quantity eaten should be small.
Overlooking the stomach is even more
dangerous in summer than other seasons.
Drinking should be on u moderate plan,
also. and alcoholic liquors should be alb
solutely avoided.
