It
is
easily
possible
to
absorb
too
much
sunshine,
especially
in
the
lower
latitudes.
The
various
races
of
the
earth
enjoy
a
degree
of
pigmentation
of
the
skin
corresponding
to
the
intensity
of
the
sunlight
in
the
latitude
to
which
they
have
become
accustomed
through
the
course
of
evolution.
Equatorial
races
are
black,
far-northern
races
are
blonde
with
very
fair
skin,
and
those
occupying
mean
latitudes
are
either
brown
or
olive-hued.
Brunettes
or
fairly
dark-complexioned
white
men
can
stand
more
sunshine
than
the
blue-eyed,
fair-skinned
types
of
Scotland,
Norway
and
Sweden.
Where
the
latter
are
exposed
to
intensely
strong
sunshine
in
latitudes
further
south
than
their
natural
home,
and
especially
when
visiting
the
tropics,
where
the
sun's
rays
are
nearly
vertical,
some
special
protection
from
the
excessive
light
is
necessary.
Then
the
upper
or
outer
clothing
should
be
white
or
light-colored,
but
an
undergarment
of
some
opaque
or
dark-colored
material
should
be
used
to
shut
out
the
light.
In
the
case
of
tropical
animals
Nature
provides
a
light-colored
or
tawny
growth
of
hair,
with
an
underlying
black
or
heavily
pigmented
skin.
The
white
man
when
in
the
tropics
or
when
subject
to
the
chemical
rays
of
the
sun
in
midsummer
would
do
well
to
follow
Nature's
example,
wearing
light
clothing
outside
with
black-
or
orange-colored
or
other
opaque
underwear.
The
hat
should
be
white
or
tan
or
light-colored
on
top,
but
with
a
dark-colored
lining
extending
under
the
brim.
Blonde
types
spending
the
summer
in
a
latitude
like
that
of
Texas
or
Mexico
would
do
well
to
consider
these
suggestions.
Sunlight
is
essential
to
life.
Sun
baths
are
invaluable
and
ordinarily
our
clothing
should
be
such
as
to
permit
the
light
to
reach
the
skin.
But
when
the
sun's
rays
are
nearly
vertical
fair-skinned
persons
may
easily
protect
themselves
and
maintain
comfort
by
following
this
suggestion.
