day. In the summer 1t is IN
hygienic to eat it more than once
or twice a week.
The summer diet should be
fruit, fresh vegetables, good bread
and butter (con bread, II one
likes III, fish occasionally, eggs
occasionally, and milk (oeca-
sionally). The regular summer
beverage should be lemonade-not
too acid. And, Of course, alcohol
in any form should be cut out
absolutely.
The salt water bath Is the ideal
preparation for the day. It can
be had in any bath tub at very
small expense. Buy a five-pound
bag Of sea salt and use one pound
a day in the bath water. Melt it
first, in a basin of water, and then
add the brine thus made to the
water in the tub. Dissolved in the
bath tub, the salt might clog up
the plumbing.
Start a hot day in that manner.
Then, in cool garments, eat the
right diet, keep your mind of the
heat-and that day will be as COM
Portable a day as any other day.
Try it.
