from Robert Waldrop's site - Clues for Okie Coolness:
On the JOYS of Living without Air Conditioning in Oklahoma
"1. Stay hydrated. Drink lots of water. Avoid soft drinks and caffeine, these will dehydrate you, as does alcohol. The idea that an ice cold soda pop is the perfect solution to thirst is a delusion fostered by hundreds of millions of dollars of advertising. Its purpose is to enrich the stockholders and management of soda pop corporations at your expense. The more soda pop you drink, the more thirsty you will be, the hotter you will feel, and thus the more uncomfortable you will be in hot weather. Soda pop advertisements are LIES! Sugar free soft drinks are as bad as the sugared versions.
2. Dress for the season when inside your house. Wear shorts and a light shirt. Loose fitting clothes are cooler and more comfortable than tight fitting garments. Go barefoot or wear sandals. Natural fabrics are cooler than synthetics. At night, use light cotton sheets on your bed. Minimize indoor fabrics, as fabric increases interior humidity. This is good in the winter, but bad in the summer. People living without air conditioning should probably opt for no carpet on the floors; during the winter they can lay down area rugs, but roll them up and put them away during the summer."
I have only included the first two tips since they directly answered yor question but you may want to check out the rest of them for home use. http://www.energyconservationinfo.org/noacok.htm

Take your own jug of water with ice in it! Even if you have to fill it with tap water if you drink it all it will still keep you from dehydrating. Also try taking a towel and wetiing during the day. Keep it around your neck! Good luck!
