Nature rebels against heavy foods in warm weather.
Much illness in summer is caused by overtaxing the
stomach. Change your diet—and keep snappy in mind
and muscle!
j Kellogg’s Corn Flakes with cold milk and fresh fruit
, are wonderful for the hot days—for breakfast, for lunch,
for supper or for “snacks.” They digest without taxing
* the stomach and supply the nourishment the body needs.

The coal situation has a fair pros
Dect of becomintr serious in this local
lty if some drastic action is not taken
soon. While the coal supply is suffi
cient here for the present needs, there
is a probability that the light plant
will be extremely low on coal before
many days, -although they have two
hundred and fifty tons on the road at
this time but are unable to locate it.
If the railroads take it for their own
use, which they have a right to do, the
situation here will be acute, for the
reason that many of the business
houses use much electricity in the
conduct of their business. The pres
ident is using every effort to settle
the differences between the miners
and mine owners but up to this time
neither side have shown a willingness
to concede anything to the other.
ELECTION BOARDS
COMBINE VOTE
The election boards of Verdigris and
Dustin precincts registered more
democratic votes to Beal than there
were democratic votes cast in the
precinct. This was caused by the
fact that Beal was a candidate foi
congressman for both the short and
long term and the boards thought
lessly combined his vote giving him ar
excessive total. The same conditior
possibly existed throughout the entire
district which may account for Lani
gan’s defeat.
