How to " Keep Cool-
Correct habits of body and mind will
antagonize and generally overcome the
j. most persistent efforts of the: sun. To
j begin, avoid heating food; most' people
j allow the palate' to determine what
; they shall eat and how niucli, which is
; as foolish' asj to allow the family fire to
i select such fuel as best pleases it gun
j powder, nitro-glycerine, etc! Do not
increase Your tihvfucar temneratiire.
particularly that of yjour head by drink-
ing alcoholic beverages; when water
will not suffice as a drink; consult a
physician instead of a barkeeper: Use
water externally with frequency; no
' one can get rid of superfluous heat
through a skin, the pores of which are
tightly sealed. If you have a great
many cigars that ought to be smoked
before they grow dry and tasteless, give"
them to your enemy; it is bettfer that
his liver be deranged than yours, for a
: torpid liver induces a weak, hot head J
At least once a day take exercise enough
to cause free perspiration; the man who
perspires most is always the coolest;
the soldier on drill in woolen clothing
under a hot sun. with the thermometer
in the nineties, ,ia more comfortable
than the lounger, in white ' linen 'and
un umbrella who looks at him. If
you have a first-rate thing to get angry
f about lay it carefully away1 until old
weather. Do not worry; it is fright
' fully heating as' well as physically ex
travagant! Sleep, regularly and full
hours, resistisg the temptation to sit
up late because the evening is the only
cool part of tho day, A hundred other
suggestions, might be ! offerdj but the
above, if followed; will enable -many a
heat-ssrieken mortal to imagine that
this is not so dreadfully hot a summer?

The RfVer Danube. ':
The river Danube has figured largely
In history for 2,000 years, and it again
"becomes the object to -which'the eyes of
the whole world haye turned. It fur
nished a highway for the Turks in the
sixteenth and seventeenth -centuries to
penetrate Europe, as far as Vienna, and
in the days of the Crusddes ; it became
an outlet for the religious enthusiasm
, of. Europe to flow to the Holy Lad.
, The Danube, from its source in Baden
to the Black Sea, is 1,820 miles long;
and it drains with its tributaries an
area' of over ,300,000 square miles. It
passes through Bavaria, Austria, II un-
"gary and Servia to the Carpathian
: Mountaias, where it separates llouma
nia and Bulgaria, and passes, into the
Black Sea through several months, the
principal one one being that of Sulina.
The Danube is navigable for steamers
