How to be Healthy
The wisdom of the ages, crystallizing in adages,
has brought down to us four priceless rules for hu
man conduct during midsummer: T; "
"KEEP YOUR PORES CLEAN, YOUR HEAD
COOL, YOUR BOWELS OPEN AND YOUR CON
SCIENCE CLEAR." ; ■<-■ •.<••-. . -
To which would add a fifth: .. , r A^
"DON'T FRET ABOUT THE THERMOME
TER; FORGET IT!" U .-.;* , i -. ,
Of course? there are other summer rules which are
also good. For example, summer is a fine time to let
up on meat eating and to emphasize on salads. ; Al
most anybody can ■ have a little patch of lettuce, on
ions, spinach and the like, from which frequent sal
ads f can be i made. They're inexpensive," nourishing,
cooling and help you in the observance of that very
important ! mandate about the bowels.
Fruits, too, arc useful parts of the summer dietary,
but you would do well to be very careful that the
fruits r you eat are fully ripened. Here is a rule with
regard Ito fruits which, if observed, will save many a
doctor's bill: "IF IN DOUBT, STEW." A stewed
fruit is almost always digestible, but a green fruit
may be a terror to the tummy. ■•;■.•--"
Another suggestion, perhaps a minor one; FIGHT
SHY OF ICED WATER. Slowly sipped when
you're not over-heated —and assuming, of course,
that the water, itself is pure-iced water is safe
enough. But that isn't the way it isNisually taken.
Gulped immoderately when the bodily temperature
is abnormally highlit chills the system and starts
loads 1 of trouble. Drink abundantly of water in the
hot spells—there's little danger of overdrinking;
your innards" need flushing as much as your sew
ers—but let the beverage be only moderately cool. A
handful of oatmeal or the juice of a lemon in a pail
ful of cool water makes a fine potation when Old Sol
cutting high jinks.
Finally—DON'T WORRY.
It is idleness and thinking about the heat which
make the heated term so trying. Don't overwork,
but don't loaf, either— least not for long at a time.
Being interested in congenial work is one of the best
aids there is to forgetfulness of heat.

Science and Berries
Science has put Tacoma and the Puyallup valley
three days nearer the east than formerly for com
mercial purposes. . >v r
Heretofore the Mississippi river has been far east
for this section's berries. But the valley growers
plenty of berries and the mouths of the people
beyond the Mississippi were watering for them, so
science stepped in to the rescue, and a pre-cooling
plant was built at Puyallup to cool off the cars of
xruit, and now they can be shipped three days longer
means that Jlacoma berries can go practically
to the eastern coast and still be good.
The, pre-cooling of the carloads of berries arrests
process of ripening and the berries will last sev
eral days longer than if allowed to take their normal
course. This means additional business for this sec
tion. The capacity of this country for producing
berries is almost unlimited and the east is eager for
the big fruit of Puget Sound. With the new feature
of pre-cooling making the shipping easy, the east
[will* now proceed to dump the good coin into this
section for berries.

Stage Gossip
NEW YORK, July 8. —Roland
B. Molineux, forgotten by the
•public since his three trials for
murder, some dozen years ago,
and the verdict of acquittal which
finally released him from the
death house, now comes to the
front as a playwright of suffi
cient ability to win a 'hearing
from David Belaaco.
Ever since his narrow escape
from the electric chair Molineux
has ridden a hobby, that of pris
on reform. He has been active
in the redemption of men re
leased from prison, and (lias
urged in magazine articles and
otherwise a new penal system by
which criminals are to be sen
tenced for an indefinite period,
and set free when adjudged
worthy of liberation by a Judge
and Jury in a "court of rehabili
tation."

Mrs. Fiske's Play
Makes Author Rich
' Edward Sheldon, author of
"The High Road," In Which Mrs.
Fiske will tour from September
r.ext until February when she;
will appear In a new production
In New York, la one playwright
which has no complaints to offer
for the season of 1912-13, which,
generally speaking, waa no more
rosy for playwrights than for
producers. ! The failures of the
former resulted in many heavy
losses for the latter, but Mr.
Sheldon with a complete season
for "The High Road" and a New
York run of nearly six months
for "Romance," is spending the
summer In Europe, as care free
as to the future as he Is to the
present, since iboth plays are cer
tain to be consistent breadwin

rewards to the . playwright are
generous —when he writes
good plays. ' '

When Love Went Out of Her
Life, Little Aranka Sought
Eternity With Chum
CHICAGO, July B.—"Saul and
Jonathan," says tlie psalmist,
"were lovely and pleasant In their
lives, and in their death they
were not divided."
Eva and Aranka were like that.
Eva Weiss and Aranka Nuss
liiiuni worked in an apron factory.
Their work benches were side by
side.
The girls at the factory called
them "the twins," rather derisive
ly. They had never seen such
friendship. It piqued them that
Eva and Aranka never gossiped
and Joked with them at noon
time or went along to picture
shows on pay night.
Aranka was a frail, timid little
creature. She "had no folkß" —
except Eva, who was father and
mother and brother and sister to
her, though there was no blood
tie.
And Kva was strong and self
reliant. Nobody will ever know
all that Eva did for Aranka.
When Kva began "going
around" with Jim it saddened
Aranka, because bo took so much
of Eva's time, and that left her
alone. But she reconciled herself
to It, because jt seemed to make
Eva happy.
Then one morning Aranka did
not go to work. The two girls
appeared at the home of Mrs.
Elizabeth Sobowitz, Eva's married
sister, on Uhland st. They talked
together in low tones. Mrs. Sobo
witz overheard enough of their
talk to gather that Jim had gone
away, and that Eva simply HAD
to have him back.
Eva was utterly wretched, and
now it van the weak, timid
Aranka who comforted her, the
strong one. And finally, Mrs.
Sobowitz heard Aranka say:
"Well, Eva, If you must go, I'm
going, too."
Next morning the police found
Eva and Aranka in the little back
room of the airless flat, locked In
each other's arms, their faces
pressed close together—cold in
