GOOD HOT WEATHER ADVICE

Chicago Health Department Issues
! Public Circular to Residents.
Be sensible and you'll stand some
chance of being happy thru the hot
I days that are ahead of you.
! Be sensible about your eating; be
sensible about your clothes' be sens
| ible about your work; be sensible
about your play All these things
directly influence your personal COM
fort in summer time. If you indulge
yourself without regard to what is
good for you, Of course. You VIII he
unhappy; you will sweat and swear
| the whole season thru.
Recognizing these facts. the Chi
cago health department has Just IS
sued an interesting circular of ad-
vice to the jewellers of that city. II
| isn't coined in medical terms but In
plain language, straight to the point
This is the sum and substance OF Its
advice:
Cut your food down one-half and
be the better off for doing 1t. You
do not need it. so why take At?
Pass up meat and gravies and
other greasy things and live on fruits,
vegetables, salads milk and the ce-
reals. They put you in condition to
Withstand the heat.
Cut out the beer. Drink water IN
stead, and plenty Of it: guzzle 1t
down whenever you get a chance. and
for the next best thing drink butter-
milk
There Is no such thing as sun
stroke. The sun doesn't hit you.
| but wrong living does. Rushing the
growler' causes more sunstrokes IN
| a week than the sun does in year
! 1t might be added that 1t doesn't
| add to comfort to fret and worry about
the heat. Take it cool1y.
