The Pennsylvania Magazine gives very
unfiattering description of Benjami1
Franklin's wife. 1t is taken from the di-
airy of Daniel Fisher, who was Franklin's
secretary for short time. "She sat on
the floor at neighbours. She assumed
the airs of extraordinary freedom and
great humility, lamented heavily the mis-
fortunes of those who are unhappily infect
ed with too tender or benevolent dispo-
sition, said she believed all the world
claimed a privilege of troubling her pap
py-so she usually calls Mr.. Franklin
with their calamities and distress, giving
us general history of many such wretch
es and their impertinent applications. "
lie mentions "the turbulence and jealousy
and pride of her disposition" and the VIC
lence of her inyectiyes. Pointing to Frank
Inns son one day, she exclaimed, There
goes the greatest villain upon earthl"

The Australia brings US an
other invoice of the famous
Monarch bicycles, and those
, who have ordered them will be
, made happy. The wheel is
making great strides in popu-
larity in the States, and judy
t ing from the number sold here
, it is taking a high rank in
} favor among lovors of bicycles
on the islands. For new
wheel to be placed i'll market
alongside so many wheels of
popular make and of establish
ed merit, and become in so
short. a time so well liked, it
surely must be a first class
! machine. What other bicycle
has ever jumped into favor
like the Monarch ! We are
proud of the record and say
that we feel sure that before
January /, 1896, there will be
100 Monarch bicycles in use
on the Hawaiian Islands.
Many riders want a wheel
| that will stand hard wear and
not break down by knocking
about the streets and rough
roads. We think the Mon
arch can stand as much of this
2 as any wheel built.
