FOOD FOR SUMMER
What to Eat and Drink
to be Healthy, Happy,
Wise.
(Wash. Cor. n. Y. Hcr& d.

(WaSn. Cor. N. u. t1Gfes Il.
|, What to eat and drink and what
to avoid during the hot summer
months is a question to which Pro-
fessor Harvey w. Wilev chief Of the
chemistry division of the agricultural
Department, and one Of the most
noted dieticians in the coIptry, has
given years of careful and painstak-
ing study. His researches along tn csc
lines and his persistent advocacy Ct
the pure food laws which were finally
enacted by Congress have made his
name familiar among laym"n as wei
as technical students and scientists.
Professor Wiley lays down the es-
sential principle that there must be
moderation in all things eatable dur
ing the summer months, and if per-
feet health is to be obtain ed under
the trying conditions of the heated
term there must be absolute denial of
alcoholic drinks and cold beverages
of the more harml ess sort from the
temperance standpoint, but equally
dangerous in their effect upon the
stomach.
ANY excessive use of alcoholic
drinks during the summer months
should be avoided said Professor
Wiley today. This is especially i'm
portant for those who are exposed
to the direct rays of the sun. StatiS-
tics show that in cases of sunstrokG
the great majority of the victims are
addicted to the use of liquor. This
of itself may not prove much, how
ever, for the majority of the people
seem to be addicted to the use Of al
coholic drinks in one form or an
other.
Produces Too Much Heat
'"There is every reason, from a
physiological standpoint, in addition
to the mere opinion that it is ,nja-
rious, why we should put aside al
cohol in hot weather. Alcon 81 is con-
verified into heat and energy when ia

dream this week to the effect that

so far as to picture the deputy sheriffs

resi- igned his position while Dalrymple

the company wanted to use and when
he had been served with notice to va
cate, he had sense enough to obey or

STRONGEST OF RADIOACTIVE WATER
Prof. Wolcott Surprised Unusual Strength-Wi Make
Special Report to the Government and Provide
Place at the Worlds Fair

Radium exists in the hot waters oil
Glenwood. This fact was affirma
lively and positively established by
the investigations of Prof. E R. VOL
colt concluded last Saturday
The tests were ma lie with a special
ly prepared electrical apparatus and
proved not only that the water con-
tains radio activity, but that it is also
present in the gases that rise from the
springs, and in the deposit
After completing his tests, Professor
Wolcott said; 81 have never seen
water so strongly radio active Since
the discovery of radium l have given
special attention to radio active
water and have examined much of it.
81 find that the water here is 80
strongly radio-act that it requires
an area but 30 times as great as a
given area of uranium to be equally
as strong.
EVERY indication. too, points to
the presence of radium as the active
agent in producing this radio, activi :
ty; the gases are doubtless helium
and thorium
Professor Wolcott unfortunately
was greeted by only small audience,
where the Importance of the question
to the city should have brought out
everyone.
There was no "jolly" to his lecture
and he refrained from going into his
tests in detail for the reason that he
had not completed them SO as to ar
rive at definite conclusion.
He took some of the water with
him and will make additional tests
at the college and reduce his findings
The Glenwood post., 1904-04-16

to figures 80 as to give the exact
strength Of the radio activity in the
water, and in the gases, the latter
constituting one of the main features
in the hot caves.
When it is remembered that the
Colorado State school of mines is rec
ognized as ranking with Columbia
College N. Y. as the best mining
school in America, the force of Pro-
fessor Wolcott's announcement in
connection with the hot waters here
can be appreciated.
When it became known that Pro-
fessor Wolcott was to make test of
the water here, he was specially re-
quested by the United States govern
ment to make a>report to them of his
findings. This report will be made
to the chief of the Geological Survey,
who will incorporate it in his reports
to the president. Professor Wolcott
has charge of the Colorado radium
exhibit at the World fair and the
hot waters here will be given a good
position.
He will also correspond with a
number of scientific journals, giving
them complete details so that the hot
waters Of Glenwood Springs will be-
come known to every scientific man
in the country, and through them to
thousands of physicians.
The beneficial results to the city
cannot be computed and it will de-
pend upon the force the city places
behind its newly discovered asset,
whether it will receive all the bene-
fits that will naturally flow from it.

There are few creatures in the
world more charming than a really

One such girl comes to my mind

advantages any girl could desire.
She studied in one of the best of New
England's high schools and there ac-
quired freedom from snobbishness

right type of girl by the association
with all sorts and conditions of stu
dents. When she left the high school
she was taken abroad and after hav.
ing Travelled extensi vely, was given a
year in an English and French school
near Paris. From this she came home
to the small town in which she was
reared and went happily to work to
live her life. She has taken one or
two small classes in languages, be-
cause, as she sensibly says, that is
the work by which she would live if
she had to support herself and she

the daughter of the house, in the old
fashioned meaning of the phrase, tax
ing her share in the housekeeping and
home making, helping her mother
when it is necessary, being a com
panion to her father and friend to
her younger brothers and sisters.
The gentleness of manner which
makes her charming to strangers may
be due partly to nature and training,
but portion of it is surely the result
of effort on her part. She has found
