What Ee Sees and Hears In Day IS

Politics make strange bed-fellows.
said gentleman the other day. Zone
year you see certain men bitter enemies
TO one another. and the next year you
see the same men hugging each other.
This is politics. you know, and | often
wonder why it is that other people who

would never be so. Ambition will carry

New riders of the bicycle should look
out for the "bicycle spread foot. Con-
slant pushing on the pedals of the bikes
is responsible for the widening of the
feet. which is just beginning to be no.
ticed on riders who have been pedaling
constantly for several years. Chirop-
odists are very much interested, for the
"bicycle spread foot" is accompanied by
troubles that are their gains. But the
shoemaker is sorry. for the widening of
the feet has meant for him the putting
of more leather in the shoes. while prices
have not risen accordingly. A prominent
local shoe dealer says that shoes were
being made larger than ever before for
wearers of all ages. and he firmly believ-
ed that the bicycle was to blame. Mar
row feet of women are becoming the ex-
ceptions. and the owners of those excep-
tions are invariably found to be non
riders, The question has been discussed
among physicians in town, who say that
once set in the spread the foot cannot be
coaxed back to Its normal shape. The
condition that is the result of constant
pedaling. which involves push with the
foot at each turn of the pedal. is the
same as follows with woman who con-
stantly runs sewing machine. A pre-
ventive that has been suggested is the
wearing OF tight shoes on the wheel
While they may pinch in some cases it il
claimed they will help TO keep the foot in
something like its proper shape.
