Manners Of Smokers.

Smokers have all sorts OF peculiar
tricks and oddities. One man had
the trick of constantly knocking of
the ashes with his little finger He
would keep that little finger wag.
ging continually, and when there
were no ashes he would burn his
finger But it was a habit which he
seemed wholly unable to overcome.
Some men seem to find an inexpli-
cable delight in making chimneys
OF their noses, and sending the
smoke in volumes through those
orifices.
Another man had a singular trick
of shutting one eye to look along
his cigar with the other as he put it
into his mouth. The peculiar habits
OF smokers will sometimes run
through whole family.
"a man came to me in my Office
one day." says writer, land repre-
sented himself as brother OF an old
friend OF mine. He was a shabby,
forlorn- looking specimen, aud l was
not inclined to believe his story,
especially as there was no personal
resemblance to his brother.
"He told a plausible story, but l
was still inclined to disbelieve him,
and finally l told him to clear out,
aud that | couldn't be bothered with
him.
Then my better feeling came to
the front, and gave him cigar
He took it with a sad, forgiving
smile, and lit it. He hadn't taken
but one puff before | was on my feet
begging his pardon.
"After taking that puff he had
taken out his cigar with a peculiar
jers, and blown the smoke out Of
the corner OF his mouth in a manner
which | had noticed and laughed at
over hundred times when, with his
brother, l saw him do it. / knew
then that l was not being imposed
upon"

The Bicycle and Transportation

According to the Chicago Times Herald.
the bicycle has very largely stimulated
the suburban movement. Young house
holders and married people with small
families have discovered that the bicycle
has solved the transportation problem.
Not only these, but clerks and employees
of both sexes have made the same dis
covery. To person who can ride a
wheel 1t matters little whether he lives
three miles or ten miles from his place OF
business, nor does he care whether he is
near the elevated or the cable or the
steam cars. With little exertion be can
ride al the rate of ten miles an hour, and
that will allow him to live in very far
suburb indeed. The result is that this
year people have been buying bicycles
and renting houses or securing boarding
places in the far boundaries of the city.

COME TO STAY.
How the Bicycle Has Captured All
(IaSSaS.


Looking out from the window on any
Of our city squares one sees swarm OF
flies or midges circIing in the air. Then,
looking down upon the pavement, one
sees a similar swarm OF human beings,
less numerous than the winged creatures,
but equally active, each speeding De-
tween two wheels with swiftness that re-
minds the beholder of that mysterious
'life within the wheels" as seen by the
Hebrew prophet in his mighty vision.
The marvel is that day by day this hu-
man swarm increases; there are perceptl-
bly,, one would say, more bicycles visible
on Tuesday than on Monday, on W ednes-
day than on Tuesday; and the mum per
that will have accumulated by saturday
or Sunday next battles the Imagination.
All the factories are SO overburdened
with orders that they can only promise
for month or two In advance, and per-
haps fail III their promises. Inc bicycle
levels all social distinctions; the fine lady
quits her carriage and fOOtmen, and
leaves them staring after her while she
propels herself; and, on the other hand,
the bicycle effects a practical lowering OF
rent To the journeyman mechanic, be-
cause il enables him to live farther from
his daily work. 1t is an essential chapter
III the emancipation of women; enlarges
her horizon and abbreviates her gar
ments. In some part of the nation horses
still do part of the same office, but the
days journey of horse is as nothing be-
side that of the bicycle, and horse is, as
the late DR.. Holmes said, "a profligate
animal" by reason of the expense OF
keeping him in cities. Even in point OF
danger the horse is far more perilous; the
worst that can happen to machine Is to
upset and cease motion, whereas it is
when a horse is overthrown that he be-
comes most dangerous. Indeed, the COM
petition is so formidable that one can
hardly demur at the caricature in the
comic paper which represents the disap-
pointed animal as looking Indignantly
at the inanimate rival who is driving him
out of business.-Harper's Bazaar.
