My feet feel
as they did
when I was
a little girl!
i
THAT is what one woman
said after wearing the
ARCH PRESERVER
SHOE for three months.
It will do as muchforyou. Will {pre
vent that needless tiring of your feet.
Will keep them well, strong, vigorous,
happy. Yet you can wear just the
style you wish.
The ARCH PRESERVER SHOE
looks like any regular good shoe. But
your foot immediately feels the differ
ence. Of course, it also relieves all
ordinary foot troubles.

"KEEPS THE FOOT WELL”
Unless this trade-mark appears
it is not a genuine ARCH PRE
SERVER SHOE. The exclusive
arch construction offers firm support
for the foot during the entire life of
the shoe and gives the shoe longer
life. There is a “walking base”
underneath the entire foot.

Lincoln Track Review, Dec. 16.—Mr.
John J. Hynes, the inventor, and Mr.
C. M. Daly, secretary of the O’Neill
Commercial Club, are preparing to
market what will be known as the
“Hynes’’ rubber work mitten and
glove. The invention comes as the re
sult of an experiment in using husking
mittens made of old rubber tubes in
lieu of the usual cloth mitten for corn
husking in the section. The result
showed that these crude rubber mit
tens outlasted a good many pairs of
canton flannel mittens. The inventor
has provided for ventilation in the
back of the rubber mitten to ward
against too much heat when working.
The mittens being of rubber, also
keeps the hands dry when husking corn
in damp or snowy weather and offers
added protection against burrs and
weeds.
New Meat Market
We have opened a new meat market in the old
Brennan store building where we are prepared to
furnish you with all kinds of fresh and cured meats.

Where The Price Is Right
.The Knights of Columbus expect to
put on a comic opera some time in
January. An instructor has been em
ployed and the ca^t will be arranged
in the near future.
Announcement of the slaying of C.
T. Linton, currency guard for the Den
ver Federal Reserve bank, who was
killed when bandits held up a truck
last Monday in which currency being
transported from the federal reserve
bank to the Denver mint for safe
keeping was received by Judge Thomas
Oarlon of this city with sorrow. Mr.
Linton was for years court -clerk to
Judge Carlon while the latter was on
the bench in Denver, and the two men
were intimate personal friends. Two
sons of Mr. Linton are noted actors
and both were on the stage, one at
Scranton, Pennsylvania, and one at
Indianapolis, when they received tele
grams announcing the murder of their
father. Both finished their turns,
which happened to be comedy ones,
rather than to disappoint their audi
ences and the latter were not aware
of the great sorrow sq suddenly
visited ilpon the laugh makers. Im
mediately after the conclusion of his
shbw Harry- Linton left Scranton for
Denver to attend the funeral. Thomas
Linton, who heads his own show at
Indianapolis, was unable to attend the
funeral because of a twenty weeks
contract from which he could not be
released.
Winter and T. V. Golden are twins.
Both began on December 2? and both
will celebrate their birthdi y anni
versary Friday, which day is .\lso ‘dis
tinguished as being the shortest one
of the year. But a day which is the
anniversary of two important events
doesn’t need to be so very long. Mr.
Golden is’nt the only one of the Golden
family with an unusual birthday. When
Parnell Golden arrived on earth a
number of years back it was along
close to midnight, in fact so close that
it was very doubtful whether it was a
few seconds before or a few seconds
after 12 o’clock, and because of this
it developed on T. V. to make the
official decision as to the exact time.
The decision to be made was far more
important than it would ordlhary
seem, because the month happened to
be July. If T. V. decided that Parnell
was born before midnight it meant
that his birthday would be July 12,
Orangemen’s Day. If he fixed the
time as. after midnight it meant ar
riving in this world on the thirteenth
of the month, which also waB Friday
on that particular year. After weighty
deliberation Mr. Golden decided that
there was nothing to the silly super
stitions about Friday and thirteen, so
Parnell was born at 12.1 *1” a. m., Fri
day, July 13. The anniversary falls on
the same day of the week this year, so
a mathematician should be able to
figure Parnell's age.
