Harper's Weekly is acknowledged as standing
first among illustrated weekly periodicals in
America 1t occupies place between that of the
hurried daily paper and that of the less timely
monthly magazine. 1t includes both literature
and news, and presents with equal force and
felicity the real events of current history and the
imaginative themes of fiction. On account of its
very complete series of illustrations of the Worlds
Fair it will be not only the bestguide to the great
Exposition, but also its best souvenir. Every
public event of general interest will be fully il
iustrated in its pages. Its contributions being
from the best writer's and artists in this country,
it will continue to excel in literature, news, and
illustrations all other publications of its class

cycle Is.

g Bikes are all the go now and are
used as matters of business-cOnven-
fence and rapid travel as we'll as for
exercise and pleasure. Business and
professional men as we'll as young men
and ladies now ride bicycles with that
nonchalence and matter of fact air that
our forefathers mounted the old fashion
stick gig for :jaunt across the country or
to the rural postoffice. Indeed, cycling
has become such a universal pastlme
as we'll as a healthful recreation and
business expedient that some of the
largest workshops in the country are
devoted to the manufacture OF the
modern vehicle.
One of the best as we'll as ono OF the
prettiest and cheapest wheels on the
market is the g Monarch" built by
the we'll known Monarch Cycle Co., of
Chicago. They take the lead wherever
introduced. Combining all the latest
improvements, built of the very best
material that can be procured, the
Monarch is a perfect machine in every
particular whether for pleasure or for
racing purposes. Persons interested
should consult the editor Of this paper
who will take pleasure in showing cata-
logue and quoting prices.
