Heat Tests of Clothing.

An interesting experiment, made in
June by a physician, proved conclu'
sively that for the sake of GOODNESS
only white should be worn in hot
weather
The physician spread out in an in
tense sunshine q large piece Of white
cloth, another of dark yellow, another
OF light green, another of dark green
another of blue and another Of black
Then, with the help of six thermom'
eters, he made the following table OF
the various heats which each color re-
ceived from the sunlight: White, 10C
degrees; dark yellow, 140 degrees
light green. 155 degrees; dark green
1sS degrees; blue, 1873 degrees; black
20S degrees.
Thus the physician proved that in
July or August the man in white is a
little less than twice as cool as the
man in blue and a little more than
twice as cool as the man in black.
