PLANNING MILL lS BURNED
DURING ELECTRICAL STORM

DALLAS, Texas. Oct. 16.-Fire
which broke out shortly after ,
o'clock Sunday night destroyed tha
planning mill and contents owned by
II. A. Coleman and located at SD
Bourbon street. The building was
valued at $1,000 and the contents at
SO. 900. There was no insurance on
either the building or contents.
Owing to the inflamable nature of
the building and dry lumber stored
therein the fire spread rapidly. Mr..
Coleman believes that lightning
struck the mill and started the fire.

LESSON NO. /.

our initial exercise is one Of the
easiest and should be practised by
beginners to prevent straining the
dormant muscles. 1t is 4 leg swing
ing exercise, which may be taken in
bed or on Il soft rug on the floor.
There Is absolutely no danger Of
strain IN this simple movement, and
{: may be taken by even the very
obese, who find it difficult To get
down and up from the floor. The re-
suit Of the milder exercises are so
slow as 70 be hardly noticeable, and
have the effect Of merely limberng
up the unused muscles, without caus-
Ing u stiffness and soreness in them.
They are very necessary as a fore
runner - the moro strenuous ones
which are TO follow, and try TO re-
member that persistence, patience
and regularity arc the three rules
which count in the end.
