is that in few years you may be stout

purpose of reducing weight.
Another IL. when you are riding in the
park or on the road and cranky morse
comes along, which rears and plunges at
sight of your bicycle, always disnount
without delay and turn your wheel fat

AID FOR THE INJURED.
Try to foster the feeling of brother

to the best blcyclists, just as they do in
the best-regulated families. III anything

No man will take advantage OF such as

run the risk of ostracism by fellow
bicyclists, who. perhaps, have sisters.

HE SPEAKS FOR HIMSELF.
A Letter 'Fgom Congressman Russell

A Letter from Congressman RUSSELL
Saturdays Albany Herald contained
the following from Representative Rus
sell:
HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVE U. 5.
WASHINGTON, D. c., May IL, '95.
To the Editor of the Albany Herald: l
have read with great interest the letter
of Hon. W. N. Spence, on the financial
question, and your editorial reply there
to in your issue of May 18th. But with
out going into the merits of either side
of the discussion, think it proper that
l state my position briefly, as it will
doubtless be expected by your readers.
First, believe in the platform of 1892
-ohe Chicago platform. If its princi-
plies had been maintained by the congress
and the administration the democratic
party would now show solid and I'M
broken front.
Second, | have always been friendly
to silver. l am opposed to gold monome-
tallisrn or silver monometallism. am for
the free and unlimited coinage of botn
metals-the spirit of the Chicago plat
form provided that they can be kept on
a parity with each other, and am not
prepared to say that it cannot be done.
Third, my vote in the Fifty-Third
Congress will show that have been an
honest bimetallist. l voted for the Seign-
orage bill and also to override the
presidents veto thereon. voted against
the last financial scheme introduced in
the House by Mr.. Springer because
was opposed to the issuance of mole
bonds, which, of course, would have had
to be paid in gold. voted against the
Wilson bill, which embraced the presi-
dents request that the last issue of
bonds should express on their face that
they would be paid in gold. This, in
brief, is my record and position on the
gold apd silver question. Respectfully,
BEN e. RUSSELL.

Cold and Cotton.

Cotton has suffered more than any
other crop from the cold temperature
which we have just passed through, as it
is most susceptible to its effects. On the
10Th of May of last year a killing frost
fell, causing great uneasiness am ing the
farmers. Crops were much further
advanced at that time than now, cotton
having grown TO the height OF foot or
more. Some planted over, while others
took Tire chance of the apparently dead
plant sprouting out new. The latter
course proved the wisest, as the plant
put out again and at gathering time the
stalks which, about the first of June, were
red, having only green bud in the top,
were loaded down with full hollis.
