Overeating and Overheating
Go Hand in Hand.
Topeka Physician Tells What
to Eat in Season.
MEAT ONLY ONCE A DAY
Do Not Use Ice Drinks During
the Meal Time.
Lemonade, Grape Juice and
Limeade Refreshing

Overheating and overeating go hand
in hand. is the opinion of a number of
Topeka physicians consulted today on
one of the causes of heat prostrations.
The easiest way to invite suffering
from hot weather is to spend TOO much
time at the dinner table. Errors in
diet lose more midsummer games for
the business man. the office man and
the man of leisure than all other forms
of hot weather Indifference.
In giving out his recommendations
for the summer diet and the guards
that a person should place around his
dinner plate, a Topeka physician said
today:
In the first place, eat meat only
once a day-a laboring man may have
it twice. A person may have plenty OF
vegetables plenty of fruit and cereals
and should fill in with other light food
stuffs-but aware of the heat producing
solids during the sweltering season.
For breakfast begin with fruit of
some kind, for instance choose oranges,
bananas. berries or stewed prunes-
Then a prepared cereal and cream. Fol
low with the good old standby-bacon
and eggs and toast or possibly a small
steak Drink only milk or a good and
well made coffee. That's enough for
brea kfast-it wouldn't hurt to make
this meal even lighter.
For some reason or other, lunch-the
MONDAY meal-haS been burdened WITH
meats, pies. and a hundred other solid,
heavy, weighty, heat producing foods
This is a serious mistake. Make lunch
the highest meal of the day. Begin
with soup, a salad of vegetables. pea
nut butter sandwich and either milk,
hot tea or cocoa.
Good Meal in the Evening.
'The real substantial meal should
come in the evening-dinner- Soup, a
roast or steak, baked potatoes and as
many other vegetables as possible,
fruit or vegetable salad. The dessert
should be some sort of pudding winch
is easily digested-or a fruit pie
Lemonades, Hmeades and grape
iuices are the drinks recommended by
Topelxa physicians. Other drinks to be
procured both at the soda fountains
and to be made at home are placed on
the doubtful list.
But these drinks must be taken be-
tween meals warned doctor. Peo-
pie drink too much during meals. An
iced drink never should be taken dur
ing a meal. Ice drinks cool the stom-
ach and prevent digestion. The dfges-
tive apparatus must maintain tenn
perature of 90 degrees for digestion to
take place. When you flood this ap-
paratus with cold drinks you hamper
proper digestion.
Between meals a person may drink
grape juice. lemonade and limeade
without fear of consequences-they
are refreshing and beneficial"
Physicians admit that a great deal
of suffering from the heat can be
avoided by proper eating and drink
ing.
The above suggestions are made for
Topekans.

CHUMP CROP RIPE ONLY PURE WATER
Lawyer DiscOurses on Annual
Influx of Harvest Hands.
Relates the Experiences of One
Chauncey Malone.

A Lincoln attorney, who signs him.
self o. K. Daniels, has given the State
Journal some views concerning the an
nual influx of collegebred harvest hands
into the Kansas grain fields.
1.-The annual crop of college chumps,"
mourns Mr.. Daniels, lis now ripe. Like
Christmas-they only come once a
year; thank goodness for that. Just
what is the connection between the
Origin of Species Astronomy, and the
waving fields of grain? Doing penancs
at 104 in the shade as a climax to d
college career is a mighty fine intro
duction to the cold world, paradoXicdl-
ly speaking. It's one thing to take a
degree from a college president anu
another to take a few more from a
thermometer
Mr.. Daniels relates the mirth pro-
voking career of one Chauncey Malone,
who, having completed a university
course as eventful as the life of a SUI
fragette, dropped his diploma and pick
ed up a spade. Says Daniels:
Despite a standup. collar and q
checkered golf cap, Chauncey hired Out

On the way out through the tall I'm

other in the way of enlightened con-
versation. "Doos Y drink, young fel-

the tone of a church deacon.
When big Nels finally got it straight

but wanted to know as a matter OF
curiosity and private information
where he was raised.
Yim,' he hollered to the hired
hand, as they drove in at dark, 1--WE
got something nice here. Its name is
Bill. Take him in and give him a
glass of milk, tuck him in so he won't
fall outer bed, by golly, and I tink
also. Vim; you put the family Bible
handy. Maybe by sunup tomorrow
mornfn' yet, we can make that tender
foot so he can do two dollar and a

Nels found him next mornin' tryin'
to coax a horse through a collar with
ear of corn.
Say. Bill. you better lemme get
that horse through there, and you kin
take these two pals of milk and strain
'em into that big crock" yelled Nels.
Bill consented, and when Jim, the
hired man, drove by with the header,

through the coal oil funnel.
Yes. sir, this is full grown, wealth

sort of thing. but between the chinch
