DQO LITTLE AND YOU'LL KEEP COOL Washington, July 12. A hot weather schedule was laid down' today by Acting Chief of the Bureau of Chemistry Doolittle, and successor to Dr. ''Pure Food" Wiley. He said: "Above all things don't worry; don't think how hot it Is; don't look at the thermometer every two minutes. Just try to forget the weather and you'll be surprised to find how much less you feel it.

All alcoholic drinks, beer, gin, or anything like it, should be avoided. "A little Ice water is not harmful; also lemonade and soda fountain beverages. The acid and soda in the latter are really beneficial to ward off heat. Possibly one teeny drink, the kind that tinkles In the glass, taken in the evening, is all right. "Once a day is often enough to eat meat in hot weather never two or three times.

Be sure, too, that any fish or sea foods are absolutely fresh. They and stale milk cause typhoid fever. "Ice cream, too, is not harmful. "Moderation in all things, eating and working, is imperative. Take a vacation sure.

If you can't, be sure your wife does; she probably needs it more than you do. Every man, though, ought to take a vacation. Vacations are good investments for any business firm to give its employes. Also loaf, eat and take it as easy as you can all the time. Don't overexert.

"I wear as llRht underwear as possible. "But, above all, stay away from thermometers and forget." ALIEN'S XATIU.YLIZATIOX GOOD IKHl HIS WHOLE FAMILY Washington. July 12.

TASTE. SILL AND Simple, Quickly Harmless Relieves Remedy Ca tarrhal Deafness The thousands who suffer the miseries of catarrh, and claim they have never found a cure, can get instant relief by simply anointing the nostrils with Ely's Cream Balm. Unlike internal medicines which upset the stomach, or strong snuffs which only aggravate the trouble, this cleansing, healing, antiseptic balm instantly reaches the seat of the trouble, stops the nasty discharge, clears the nose, head and throat, and brings back the sense of taste, smell and hearing. More than this, it strengthens the weakened, diseased tissues, thus protecting you against a return of the trouble. Nasal catarrh is an inflammation of the membrane lining of the air passages, and it cannot be reached with mixtures taken into the stomach or with snuffs nad powders which only cause additional irritation.

Don't waste time on them. Get a 50 eent bottle of Ely's Cream Balm trom your druggist, and after using it for a day you will wish you had tried it sooner J. R.
