WHAT DO YOU EAT IN HOT WEATHER.

The hot period Is at hand. Here in
Iowa anytime after the beginning Of
June we may expect hot weather. From
the first Of June on until September
Iowa swelters in the heat which makes
corn in 100 days. OF late years we
have come to pay more attention TO
healthful feeding as preventative Of
the sickness peculiar to the heated
term. It Is a matter Of plain common
sense and ordinary precautton.
Hot weather brings invariably seri-
Gus disturbances Of the digestive tract.
CASTRO intestinal troubles. liver con-
eestions and "breakings out" due to d.
gestive disturbances. Last year during
F1eury, q high authority on both hemi-
spheres, made special study in an at
tempt to account for the hot weather
effects upon general health. He says
that the abuse Of cooling drinks with
food, the tendency Of foods to spoil and

believes that the most important factor
was the diversion Of the water in the
body from the kidneys to the skin. with
Increased excretion Of water, with low
oring Of blood pressure, but with de-
creased elimination Of poisons. The
sweat-excreting apparatus Of the kid
neys and during the hot weather fluids
are excreted by the skin almost entire
ly. It was De F1eury's observation that
persons who lived on fruit and vege-
table diet, to the exclusion Of meat and
eggs, escaped CASTRO intestinal disturb

prophyIactic way. a. did the employ
ment Of the Tactic ferments Drugs
which increase the blood pressure and
i stimulate the kidney function also had
beneficial effects.
Summed up the result Of his observa-
lions amount to this: Don't stuff your
self, limit the diet more closely to
fruits and vegetables and to drink
plenty Of plain water or other bland
drinks while the stomach Is empty in
order, II possible, to increase elimina-
ton By the kidneys.

SAYS HARVEY GOT MAD.

have consistently kept their faith. Har-
yey InEham is the principal exception.
He got mad because Clarke made his
own committee appointments and
promptly decided tho gOvernorship
should be taken out OF politics. After
urging several different men to run ne

inter ested In the great progressive
movement He enlisted q few sorehead
politicians in his cause and started out
to make an awful big noise for the
farmers, But the farmers have some
sense on their own account and they
stayed with Clarke. Now 1t appears
that no standpat candidate hes en-
tered the field satisfactory to that fac
ton and a large number. of the stand
patters are supporting Clarke because
they know he Is able. fair and honest.
Uncle Harvey has just learned this
fact and that is why his boilers busted.
He expected all the standpatters to
vote for his candidate. Why not! He
was running him on a platform as In
nocent as a Sunday school picnic. Sure.
thes tandpatters would let nice fel-
