The Man on the Bicycle.

The man on the bicycle is invaria-
bly, a silent mana preoccupied
mana man upon whose face ia
written al utter Indifference OF all
things met with On his bright, sunny
way. He may attract and rivet and
cIlnch the curious attention of hum
.dreds, bu: be is never attracted to
anything or anybody. 1t is a part Of
MS strange fate to appear simply an
automatic section OF his machine.
He cannot even tell you why be
works his legs in that peculiar way;
indeed, for the most part, he seems
totally oblivious of the fact that he
has pair Of legs to work at all, and
yet the spasmodic regularity in the
swift alternating undulatiens of his
knees will command at once the at.
tentiVe admiration of every IoWly
pedestrian he passes in the crowded
street. The man on the bicycle
seems always to be going somewhere
very great number Of miles from
here. Evidently he has not hoisted
himself up there asEride of that great
spindle shanked wheel either for
mere fun of the thing or to accent
his beauty and grace of figure before
the multitude. He is there for q !
purpose, rest assarsd, however in
scrutable mystery it may seem to
US. It is enough for US to recognize
in his profound abstraction and
melancholy bearing that he knows
the goal OF his ambition and will ar
rive there in proper time, ne fear.
Whatever emotions may be surging

Yesrnings riot in the soul within, the

hetraying nothing but the grave con-
tent OF one whose clear convictions |
have never failed him yet. He
Knows bis purpose and his desti-
nation. That is enough for as. |
