SUMMER COMFORT IN THE CITY,

COMFORT IN THE CITY.
The men and women who have to
spend the summer months In the cities
of Virginia are generally held up as
objects ofsympathy BY their friends; but,
az a matter of fact, they can really be
much more comfortable, by proper cara,
thsn many persons who spend the sum-
mer in the country or at distant resorts.
The secret Of summer comfort in the
city is to be found in correct cOmbina-
tion Of moderate work, cautious living
aud recreation, These three factors
can be 30 combined IS to make city life
truly enjoyable even in sun mer.
Much depends upon suitable clothing.
IN hot months, all unnecessary clothing
should be discarded and comfort should
be sought 10 the style Of clothing used.
At the same time changes in the wea her
should always be sigual for change Of
clothing.
Unnecessary draughts should be avoid
ed as far as possible. OF course, In
very hot weather, this advice will bs
often disregarded. But at least, the
stiff breezes Of the street cars should lie
avoided by persons when overhested. Sam
mer colds are generally contracted In
this way, and they are among the most
annoying and troublesome OF minor ills.
Recreation in the cooler hours Of the
day should be sought. When it is I'M
possible t. 90 to the park, The back
ward or the front yard should be used,
IA msny cases, 3 very convenient litl'
louugiog place may be arranged on the
roof of the house. A few dollars spent
in having a false floor laid on the roof
| will not only les en- the heat In the up
| per story rooms but it will give the
family roof garden that can be nsed
almost as soon as the sun is set. G ~
orally, the entire family will fad fresh
air aud cool breezss on such a roof'gsr-
den, no matter how hot 1t msy be in
side the house.
