When the malign mfluence of Sirius reigns, mental and physical strength decline with increasing 'i heat and for the vast raajority who must face the music at home, there is no better proteotion than the cultivaï t mu of content. As the month passes, if its lapse I; accompanied with the heat of former years, there comes an amount of nervous prostration that engenders nervous irritability and family jars; and all good home influences must bu iuvoked to keep the peaoe. Strive to keep your temper. Every failure to do this only makes weaker bodily resistanoe to dlsease, whose inünitesimal germs Hout upon July heat as oork upon water, ready to enter every door that the temperature makes to be left ajar. Avoid " drink. I do not mean alcoholio stimulus alone, wliijh sbould never be taken except as medicine, but promiscuous " swallowing of all sorts of fluids, whose only virtue is that they are cold and ï wet. It is true that when the skin is f fully open and blood serum freoly passes ' through its open pores, more water is needed than in coolermontho; but water i is all tbat is demanded. 't
