SUMMER RESORTS.

ITO the mountains our people in in
ereasing numbers yearly look for those
days Of relaxation and recreation nee
essary to maintain the human ma
chine in fair working con 1ition. The
laDguorous sloth of the seashore proves
very seductive while it lasts, but
many have decided that the an
nual outing should provide not only
radical change Of air and surround
ings, but also such stimulation OF
tagging energies as will provide Drawn
and vigor for the return to labor. For
this they urge the mountain climb and
ramble. the balsam of the mountain
pines. and the clear. unadulterated
mountain air.
in this direction the Shasta Route
now affords a wealth Of attractions.
J The entire line Of road from Ashland
: to Redding is studded with charming
and accessible hotels and camps. where
are cheer and comfort and healing at
reasonable cost, and where you can
hunt, fish, ride. loaf. or play with
equal facility.
"Or IL you look for healing waters,
none better can be found, hot or cold,
than the springs Of Ashland. Colestln,
Anderson. Bartlett, Byron and Paso
Robles.
Before visiting Europe, the people Of
the Northwest should see the glories
Of Yosemite valley, and the wondrous
groves Of Mariposa and Calaveras;
the Parisians are likely to make in
quirres concerning these attractive re-
sorts"

The thought OF the poem. for which

entitled to the name of hero rather
than enemy. and therefore it was no
