the big Carmania standing by and
shielding the fleet of small boats from
the gale as they worked with desper-
ate rapidity.
Captain Barr would not talk himself
when the Carmania put In today at
Fishguard. He referred all inquirers
to the reports he had made to his line
and said that he would walt until he
arrived at Liverpool before supplying
missing details But his passengers
told the story for him. AS they landed
they told II breathlessly. Their words
poured from them. One could see how
greatly they had been relieved by the
final rescue of the hundreds they had
believed were doomed to death by fire
or drowning.
Some of the Carmania's people told
the sun correspondent that they would
never be able to forget what they saw
when the Carmania raced up to the

said she couldn't persuade herself that
the scene WAS real when she looked
over the Carmania's rail and saw a

children huddled in the after part of
the volturno.

Bick. 1--WE got as close to the Nolturno
as twice the width of a street. We
had to look. There was an awful fas-

Heat Pointers for Blends.

It's easy to keep cool and not mind
the heat if you know how. Here are
some hints from an English physician.
Being COOL" he says, "is largely a
condition Of mind. Keep still, watch
what you eat and drink, avoid meat,
ventilate your clothes as well as your
home, battle freely and avoid extremes
of heat and cold in the water. Kill the
fly and don't get chilled at night.
"If you are a blond, avoid the bright
lights, because they are rich in chem
ical ether waves. In persons that have
considerable pigment in their skins
in brunettes-these short, rapid, acti-
mic waves are transformed into long
and slow heat waves. These actinic
waves have a deleterious effect on the
nervous system of those whose skin
cannot reduce their potency.
"Blonds should avoid sunlight as
much as possible, and when they do go
out they should wear colored glasses,
hats with orange lining and their
clothes outside should be white, to re-
feet the heat rays. Their underwear
should be colored, preferably orange
or blue. This is to protect the skin"
