Wear light. pornus clothing during hot weather

Remain where there is circula- tion of air, if possible. An elec- trie fan may be used to create a breeze.

Avoid undue physical exertion. Drink adequate amounts of cool water (not iced). The body is cooled by perspiration but the fluid lost must be replaced by a large intake of water. This varies with the individual and the length of exposure to heat. Often 8 to 12 glasses a day are needed.

Use a liberal amount of saĦ with food or add it to the water. This replaces salt and other ele- ments lost through perspiration.

The drinking of slightly cooled water containing small quantities of sult (one-quarter teaspoonful to one quart of water) is particu- larly effective in preventing heat cramps or the recurrent attacks of muscular spasm ang persons exposed to high heat.

Observe healthful living habits sufficient sleep, frequent baths, well-selected and usually light foods, regular and thorough elim- ination.
