Tired Feet

People walk too much and rest too
little. They stand up more than they
sit down. The feet don't get anything
but abuse in these busy days of modern
times. That's why they itch, swell,
burn, ache and become tender. You
have got to do something for your feet,
or they'll keep right on hurting you. If
you want a solid, healthy pair of feet to
carry you around, rub them good and
hard and often with Omega Oil. Every
night and morning do this after taking a
hot bath. Rub upwards in the direction
of the heart. If you rub down, you in
terfere with the circulation of the blood,
and that is a bad thing. III

Politics&are booming around here,
and the promising harvest that awaits
the Democrats will be garnered on No
vember &.
The farmers in this locality are
through thresing their wheat, the aver
age yield being about % bushels per
acre. Owing to the many acres sown
last fall the amount of wheat raised in
this vicinity is the largest ever known.
The catch of trout has been quite
plentiful the past week, notwithstand-
ing the hot wave that has visited this
section. The demand is good and
prices high.
The popular Hotel Hubbard is rapid
ly filling up and by August, no doubt
will be filled to overfiowing. Proprietor
johnson is constantly attentive to the
comfort of his guests. His accommlo-
dating and polite acts help those who
visit this place to forget the cares of
business and sorrows of life and join in
with the many who are enjoying them
selves.
Tuesday was the warmest day
known on the beach for many years.
From ~ to p. m. it was impossible
for one to stand exposed to the burning
rays of the sun. During this time the
thermometer registered in the shade
10S. On Wednesday, owing to the
breeze from the northwest it was some
what cooler. During the past six
weeks we have not had over TWO hours
of sea breezes.
But few cottages along the bay and
river shore at present are unoccupied
and during the coming week every cot
tage, tent and shanty will be occupied
swelling the general population.
