Your Health
"Hot Weather Strokes,

hot weather Strokes"
If you are in such a rundown
condition that you fail to perspire in
hot weather, look out that you do
not have a sunstroke.
The skin of a victim OF sunstroke
is hot and dry and the pulse is rapid
but weak.
There will be temperature from
los to 10 degrees with the pupils
of the eyes contracted.
First aid in the cases of sunstroke
consists of cooling the victim as
quickly as possible. Get him into a
shady spot and raise the head.
Quickly remove the clothing and be-
gin pouring cold water over him. 1t
is best to start at the head and go
down the body. The water should be
poured from a height of three or
four feet. Continue until the patient
RECEIVERS consciousness. Frequently
1t is necessary to put an ice-bag on
the head.
Heat prostration Is due to the
effect of high temperature on the
body. Heavy physical exertion is
usually the immediate cause.
The temperature of a person ex
hausted by the heat rarely rises
above 103 degrees and may be be-
low normal, the face Is pale the skin
cool and covered with coo perspira-
ton. and the patient is conscious.
The first thing to do in such cases
is to call a physician. but there are
some things you can do before the
doctor arrives. The patient should
be removed to as cool a place as pos
sible. placed fiat on the back, with
the head low, and a light covering
thrown over his body. A mild stimu-
liant may be given.

and keep your scalp free from dand-
ruff.
For the average woman one a
month is often enough to shampoo.
If the hair is excessively oily this
should be corrected by a tonic.
Use only the purest soaps An ex-
cellent soap jelly is made by melting
a bar of pure CASTLE soap in a quart
of boiling water. This may be deli
cately perfumed if you like.
Use a good reliable tonic once or
twice a week and massage it care
fully into the scalp. There is no
better h~airgrower than vaseline or
crude oil, but in using these care
should be taken they are applied
only to the scalp and not allowed to
get on the har.
Air and sunlight are absolutely
necessary. When at home it is we'll
to let your hair hang unconfined
frequently and give it a sun bath
whenever you have time.
Regular clipping of the hair is ad-
visable.
While it is a good plan to go to
a hairdresser and have regular hair
treatments, practically any woman
can get the same results for herself
