Chew on ice cubes.
Open windows for a cross breeze. Hose the ground and plants under and around those windows.
Get a hand towel soaked in cold water and drape it across the back of your neck, wrap ice cubes in it if you want.
Cold bucket of water for your feet.
Fill a bucket of icey water and put it between you and a fan, with the fan tilted so it blows off the water.
That's some of the things us aussies do when the temp get upto and over 40c if you don't have A/C, a pool or live near a beach.
