mer for children or for laborers working
in the sun is made of oatmeal. In some
cities gangs of street laborers are supplied
with great buckets of oatmeal water, made
by adding cold water to a quantity Of the
Scotch oats. While this is agreeable and
healthful, a still more delectable drink
comes from the addition of sugar and
lemon to the oatmeal. Put into a large jar
or pitcher one-quarter of a cupful of oat-
meal, one-half cupful of granulated sugar
and one-half of a lemon, sliced. Pour
over this mixture a gallon of boiling water
ana stir until the sugar is dissolved. Fruit
vlnegars may be used in place Of the
lemon Let 1t stand until cold.

An Arizona rancher. who has had occa-
sion to make many trips across the desert
says that if one wishes to lie down and
rest at midday the shade of an ordinary
white pocket handkerchief will be found a
great protection from the sun. Fasten the
kerchief to any dry bit of greasewood or
sagebrush, he says. "and you will be sur
prised at the gratefulness of the shadow
thus afforded" A white handkerchief de-
fleets the rays much better than a colored
one.
