You just imagine you're hot because

more than that. ii is not half SO
dangerous for the human body to be-
come overheated as it is for it to be-
come too cool. Take the cholera pa
tient, for instance. AS long as his
temperature remains high the physi-
,ian does not anticipate immediate

whole degree then the end Of the pa
tent is but matter Of few hours.
Auto Suggestion.
II am not a Christian Scientist, but
I do believe in the power of thought.
Auto suggestion will cure every imag
native disease of mankind, and be-
lieve that three-fourths of mans all
ments are purely imaginative l don't
mean by that statement that person
ian change conditions. On hot day
man by auto suggestion cannot
vary his temperature. but he can
auto suggest himself beyond it's power

the heat? Because don't think of it.
Keep your mind off it. When indoors

there is always something to keep my
mind occupied and make me as com
Portable in the sun as in the shade.
ibid you ever see a boy playing
baseball in the broiling hot sun and
complain about it? Certainly not!
But put that same boy to work on the
garden in the same sun, and we'll
he'd almost faint dead away from the
heat. When he is playing ball he for
gets the sun and everything but ball.
But when he has to work he remem-
oers the sun Immediately, thinks of it
and becomes hot and exhausted.
1--WE cured lots of people who suf-
iered with the heat and changed them
from grouches to human beings, as
happy as clans at high tide. have
had them come to me and say they
we're completely done up from the
heat. DO you like fishing, walking,
boating, baseball or any other sport in
particular? asked them. If they did
.are for any of those sports told them
to get out and indulge in them. 'For-
get the day, the heat and everything
but that which you are interested in,'
advised them. That's the cure for
heat
Fat Noneonduetor.
Are fat people really hotter than
hin ones? OF course not. People who
ire fat and go around grumbling about
he heat simply make themselves mis-
,rable and their friends as we'll. AS o
matter of fact, fat is splendid non
conductor. A fat man should be nc
warmer, If as warm, than thin one.
Fat keeps the heat from entering the
body and also from leaving It."
Not only has DR.. Wiley very strong
IDEAS regarding the thought method of
keeping cool in summer, but he also
mas rules regarding what to eat and
what. to drink Strange as it may
,eem, he is not opposed to people drink
ing ice water-in winter. For sum-
mer, he claims. drink that is GO or
K degrees in temperature is cool
