A
word
of
caution,
however,
is
required
because
of
the
tremendous
power
of
the
sun
and
its
powerful
chemical
effect
when
sun
bathing
is
carried
too
far.
Those
of
very
fair
skins
particularly
need
to
be
careful.
Brunettes,
with
considerable
pigment
of
the
skin
can
stand
a
great
deal
of
sunlight
without
harm,
but
light-skinned
persons,
while
needing
a
certain
amount
of
sunlight,
should
not
expose
themselves
for
too
long
a
time
to
the
midday
sun
in
summer,
or
at
least
not
until
they
have
gradually
become
sufficiently
tanned
to
do
so.
Everyone
knows
the
painful
character
of
a
sunburn.
This
only
illustrates
the
powerful
chemical
effect
of
the
sun's
rays.
In
taking
sun
baths
one
should
very
gradually
accustom
himself
to
the
sunshine
until
he
is
so
tanned
that
the
pigment
in
his
skin
will
protect
him.
The
short
or
chemical
rays
of
the
sun
are
actually
destructive
to
white
men
in
the
tropics.
In
May,
June
and
July
they
have
a
pronounced
chemical
effect
even
in
our
own
latitude.
They
are
stimulating
up
to
a
certain
point,
but
beyond
that
point
one
should
be
careful.
I
may
say,
therefore,
that
brunettes
in
summer
may
take
sun
baths
even
at
noon,
but
blondes
should
take
them
preferably
before
nine
or
ten
o'clock
in
the
morning
or
after
three
o'clock
in
the
afternoon.
In
winter,
however,
when
the
sun's
rays
are
more
slanting,
the
sun
baths
can
be
taken
even
by
the
blondes
at
any
time.
And
because
of
the
more
limited
amount
of
sunlight
in
winter,
special
attention
should
be
given
to
sun
bathing
during
that
season.
