Meeting Hot Weather.

Exposure to the direct rays Of the
sun is not the only cause of heat
prostration. Old people and in
valids sometimes suffer heat-strokc c
while sitting quietly IN a shaded
room, and tiny babies are great
sufferers in a long hot spell. There
is danger whenever intense heat is
accompanied by great humidity,
and a stagnant atmosphere-especi-
ally to those who sleep in poorly
ventilated rooms, to those who are
in feeble health, and to those who
are Intemperate.
If everybody would s~upulously
observe the rules of hygiene, and
so arrange his work that he could
rest absolutely in the middle of the
day, there would be little danger
from the heat TO persons of good
health and strength. The body
does not need much meat or stimu-
lating food of any kind, and the
great profusion of fresh fruits and
vegetables should make the question
of the table simple one. Plenty OF
cool but not ice cold, water should
be taken, for it helps to keep the
blood pure, the circulation free, and
the skin active. The activity of the
skin indeed is the most important
thing of all, for people who are
prespiriEg freely do rot stand in
gr:d, danger from the heat. Thus
those who can take Turkish bath,
are wise to do SO, for the excessive
prespira,ion they produce keeps the
system in condition TO withstanC

Lives Of Miners Being Protected.

Washington, July I5.-That the
the high tide IN the terrible death
rate in American coal mines has
been reached and passed is the con-
fident belief of the officials of the
United States Bureau of Mines.
Figures issued today by the Bu-
reau show that 2,5I7 men were
killed in the mines last year as
against 2,S54 for 1910. This shows
a reduction In the number of lives
lost of SI7 in one years time. The
tdcaIn rate IN I9To-waSJ SJyr1asss-tr
every 5000 employed. The rate
in 1911 was 5.74.
Compared with 1907, the darkest
year in the history American mining,
when S,Io7 men lost their lives,
1917 shows decrease of $50 in the
number of men killed. 1t was fol-
lowing the record of this year that
Congress authorized The goverment
to begin investigations looking to-
ward a reduction in the death. rate
and this was supplemented in 1910
by the creation of the Bureau of
Mines.
Discussing The death statistics cf
the coal minis, Dir. Joseph y.
Holmes, Director of lbe Bureau of
Miues said: awhile these la;es,

ult is of course comforting to
know that for each year since 1907
there has been decreasing number
of men killed for every million tons
of coal mined, and that for every
life los, we have each year taken
cut OF the earth more tons Of coal.
