Thirst in
S m m er
Fresh w ater and Fruit
Juices the Best for
Young People.
BY ANGELO PATRI.

WHEN you consider that man is
few grains of solids floating in
water his great thirst is understand
able at any time When you consider
what the heat of Summer does to that
most essential body Of water Sum-
mer thirst takes on great significance.
And the younger the man the deeper
the thirst
Water, pure, cool, sparkling, is the
ideal drink for Summer. The clean
spring rising from under the noun
tain rocks is the ideal place to get it.
But the ideal is not always easy to
reach. and the thirst is constant. Some
way must be provided for young people
to get a good drink, pleasant to taste,
satisfying to the thirst that is con-
suming them. What shall it be?
The best water within reach. Eight
glasses and more day is not too
much, the eight glasses is a must"
Children and the young folk, the in
betweens, like favored drinks as re-
lief from the fresh water In Summer
time the drink sellers reap a harvest
Nobody finds fault with that unless
the drinks that are sold are harmful
Bottled water is labeled and parents
should study those labels and teach
their children to do the same.
Drinks that are exposed to the air
and the flies are not to be taken at
any price. Not even when they are
given free. Warn the thirsty children
to take their soft drinks out Of the
right bottle and save themselves sick
stomachs and perhaps illness.
The young men and women. just
learning the beauty of Summer moon
light, the delight Of sunshine and sea,
and the company of each other, an
to be warned against drinking any
sort of alcoholic concoction. For them
there are the delightfully."- refreshing
fruit drinks. There is no finer drink
than these Of the fresh juice pressed
from the best fruit in the world. 1t
quenches the eternal thirst, refreshes
the spirit. gladdens the eyes and nose
with color and perfume and never
leaves the drinker with a rebellious
stomach and an aching conscience
For girls in the full tide Of youth
and beauty, fruit juice drinks are q
beauty prescription. They help keep
the skin clear and give 1t that beau-
tiful translucent gleam described by
the beauty specialists as pearly. The
pearly skin comes from the inside out,
not from the box, and knowing ones
drink fruit juices for the inside treat
ment.
No young person, no boy or girl,
needs anything that alcohol offers.
They have all it can give in greater
measure than it can bestow. They can
not afford to give up what that sort
of drink steals from them-intelli-
gence, charm, control. Youth needs no
stimulant, neither does it need the in
toxication drinking brings for they
are, or ought to be, athrill with the
JOY of youth, Joy and an intoxication
that no other force on earth can pro-
duce. Strong drink is an interference
with youthful activities-it decreases
OF initiative and roos the mind of con-
troll. 1t can have no place in youths
life.
Clean, cool water first fruit juices
next; milk always, alcohol, never.
