Loss by Recent Raleigh Fire Would

one Of the Lessons OF the recent tr
In Raleigh was to show the import
ance of having property within the
fire district protected by fire doors
and shutters and In seeing that the
buildings were not only thus equipped
but that the doors and shutters were
kept In working condition and properly
closed each night. The loss by this
fire would have been small If even the
new buildings had been properly
equipped An examination during the
fire showed that many OF the fire shut
ters were open and the infammable

Getting Ready For Summer

In order to spend a comfortable,
heolthful summer whether at
home or at some resort, says the
State Board Of Health, one must
look first to diet, then to his
bathing, and then to his sleep,
exercise and recreation. A few
general precautions are also in
cluded in the list.
The diet should consist largely
Of raw and cooked fruit, well
cooked vegetables, milk and but
ter, but very little of meat, eggs
and heavy foods. One should eat
less in summer than in winter
especially of heat producing
foods such as meats, eggs
and pastries. Besides producing
heat they tend to constipation
and mental sluggishness. Drink
much water but not quantities Of
ice water Above all avoid CON
stipation.
Take a bath every day A
cold sponge bath every morning
on getting out Of bed and a tub
bath at night will do much to-
ward keeping the body in good
condition and will make for com
