offer of, "CEOICE 5Oc," continues. It has
been our custom to make these grand special

owing to the distance of many of our GUS

obliged at times to prolong the sale. The
choice of these goods for SOC is. one of the
greatest offers we have ever made. The ex-
pressions of surprise that are continually
made by the army of customers who daily
visit us, at the extreme ~cheapness for the
elegant novelties offered, is the best evidence
Of the success of this sale. This week in adj

information they were told oil to obtain.
Seeing wagon filled with straw coming
along the road they tipped the driver tc
!et them take shelter with their machines
underneath the straw. This the driver
agreed to, and by this means the cyclists
got through the outpost lines, accom-.
plished their purpose with perfect safety
and unobserved.
There is one thing wanting in cy.
clst corps that has not yet been tried
and that is a band. Many suggestions
have been made, one of which is that a
huge musical box should be carried in
the same style as the Calling gun is con
veyed at the present time. The person
who suggests this is CT the opinion that
it may be possible to construct machine
in such way that when the riders work
the trcadles the musical affair should
giS forth martial strains.
What the future of military cycling
will be it would be hard to tell. At thu
present time nearly every volunteer bat
TALON has Il cyclist sect;or attached to it,
amounting in all to some 5000 men. Ii

into favor. At Aldershot is to be seer

dozen riders, and conveying provision

Parliament would not be making a mis-
take by sanctoning the raising of at leas

A Lesson On Milk Drinking.

Few people know that there is good
and bad way of drinking milk. The
bad way is that which they generally fol-
low, viz, to swallow large quantity at
once. When milk goes into the stomach
it is instantly curdled. and if il is
curdled into one big mass the juices of
the stomach can work on only the out
side of it. This is the reason that many
people who like milk, and to whom It
should be of the utmost benefit, cannot
drink it. They say it gives them
indigestion, and they are right.
Let them give it another chance. But
this time they must sip it slowly, not
taking more than good teaspoonful at
one SIP, and taking at least four minutes
to finish the glassful. Each little SIP
thus becomes curled up by itself when
passed into the stomach, and the diges-
tive juices percolatc freely around it and
1t speedily becomes assimiated. One of
the hest restoratives known after excess
sive fatigue, and one infinitely preferable
to any form of alcohol, is a glass of hot
milk. The heat seems to Tighten it and
to deprive II of much of the sweetness
which is so cloying to some tastes. New
York Commercial Advertiser.

shown their ability on many occasions.
For instance, ut the military exhibition,
thc regular soldiers perform on horse
back, including lcmon-cutting, tent-peg
tging, titing at the ring, etc. In order
20 bring about a successful operation the
cyclists found it necessary to ride their
machines at the rate Of about fifteen or
sixteen miles an hour. The lemon was
suspended by single wire, and on ap-
proaching it, the cyclist, while going at
this high rate of speed, had to guide his
machine with the left hand, while he
slashed out at his fruit with his right.
At the exhibition this corps gained first
prize in the drill composition, and each
member of the team was presented with
a silver medal.
Ordinary bicycles are of no use in
military cycling, and consequently noth'-
ing but saleties are called into requisi-
tion. Each cycle is fitted up to carry the
rifle at the side, which can be taken out
in three seconds; a pouch, 100 rounds
of ball cartridge, signalling flag, ETC.,
the whole weight of which is something
under seventy pounds, including ma
chine. When in full marching order
these cyclists can get along at the rate OF
ten miles an hour and even faster.
The latest invention in the way ol
military cycles is one by gentleman
hailing from Ealing, London. The
weapons of warfare carried by the mill
tary cyclist are all plainly to be seen in
the sketch. Not an inch of spare space
is lost, as besides carrying a signal flag
and rifle, the back and front wheel is
taken up by leather valise, which is
divided into various parts, the upper
portion of which carries a supply ol
cartridge cases, and there is plenty oi
room below for the various travelling in
4struments required in case of accident to
the cycle and for all other necessaries
The whole thing only weighs about
sfifty-six pounds.

One peculiar thing which ia worthy
the attention of the student of othuologY
is that the mixture of the Chinese and
IIawaiiaus makes better race, physic-
ally and mentally, than either of the
originals. Some Of the brightest young
men in Hawaii have Chinese fathers and
Kunaka mothers. These half-castcs are
remarkably shrcwd in business, while
they have the agreeable manners of the
IIawaiians. The Portuguese are thrifty,
but they are poor race. They are now
ilocking over to California and are going
into the fruit aud vineyard districts,
where their labor will certainly be better
than that of Chinese, for they are eager
to buy homes and settle. Civilized
vices and diseases and the loprosy
threaten to wipe out the native
Hawaians in the next thirty years.
They are disappearing more rapidly than
the Maors, OF New Zealand, and for
the same reason. Chicago Herald.

THE MILITARY CYCLE.

The standing gear on military cy-
Gle is an important part, and it is made
specially important in the construction
of the machine referred to. A single
prop is removed by the feet from the
spring clip, the upper portion of which
engages with the mud guard, passing
through the same, and putting brake
on the wheels, thus preventing the ma
, chine from moving forward, ..or the wheel
turning TO an sngle, the cycle leaning on
the side prop still out Of the vertical.
Fixed 10 the handle bar is valise, in
which can be carried the kit.
1t is therefore likely that in time Of ac-
4, tion the military cyclist will be able to
get within an easy distance of the field,
dismount and detach his rifle in cou :
pie OF seconds, put his machine in q
place of safety, aud be on thescene oi
action quicker than he could by any
other means.
The cyclist corps can do some very
smart things. For instance, they can
forS . zereba in five or six seconds, fol
the defence ola road, as seen by the il.
lustration. The cycles are stacked one
} TO another, and the men gSs >ahind and
fire at the appru aching enemy.
