SOUNDS WARNING
Or. Wiley, Government Chemist,
Denounces Gold Summer
Drinks.
CALLS THEIR USE SUICIDAL
Gives Basis OF Proper Diet Dur
ing the Hot Weather
Months.

Dr. w. H. Wiley. chemist of the de
partment of agriculture at Wash
ington, who has recently attracted at
tention through his experiments in
the effects of food personalities up
on the human system, speaks in no
uncertain terms in condemning the
use of summer drinks. In recent in
terview he said:
'"fhe devil turks in the soda water
fountain and iced tea is simply sui
eide. If persons would only use pre-
caution there is no reason why one
should suffer mere with sickness in
summer than winter. One of the
most fragrant causes of sickness in
summer is entirely overlooked by law
have on several occasions called at
tention to the danger of eating Vege-
tables grown on or under ground
which have been exposed to cCntami-
nation by sewage, city waste or
garbage"
Asked if meat is healthy in hot
weather. he said: Meat is much more
easily digested than starchy vege-
tables. and is both nutritious and CON
dimental. Vegetables are watery and
tiles being continental and mcchan-
zeal. Meat, good bread, potatoes, and
milk free from germs is the diet to be
relied upon at all times for good
health Good bread should be the
foundation of every meal. and too
much care cannot be given to it's pre-
paration. Bread should he at least a
day old before il is eaten, if not old
er.
Eat More wheat.
IF poor persons, especially the very
poor. would take more cereal food and
less meat they would he better off
physically and financially. For in
stance. wheat costs 3 cents a pound
as against - cents for beef. The
pound of wheat contains only 10 per
cent of moisture. You get more
than twice the nourishment from ,
cents worth of wheat than you do
from the pound of beef. Eat more
bread and wheat and less meat is a
good rule for 'hot weather. Man can
live by bread alone. while upon meat
alone he would soon die.
How about summer drinks? ," said
Dr. Wiley disdainfully. They are
snareS of the devil. The custom of
constantly dosing the stomach with
ice cold drinks in summer is simply
suicidal. The extreme cold contracts
the pores through which the Pepsin is
secretcd and tends 10 longest the
cords of the stomach. When thirsty
in h weather one should drink water
from 90 10 90 degrees. Drink slowly
and all YOU want, and YOU will find
that the water at this temperature
quenches the thirst much better than
| iced water"
