MOdesty and Humility

True modesty In true humility put In
to practice. 1t Is not the virtue of per-
sons who are unrefiecting. and are
easily driven hither and thither by the
untutored instincts and hasty impulses
Of their nature. On the contrary, the
man OF solid merit and thought Is
more likely to be modest and retiring
than the man Of trifing pursuits. OF i'm
perfect education. n unmistakable
mediocrity. This does not happen be-
cause the great man Is ignorant OF his
great powers. or the good man OF his
good qualities. Humility leads to the
highest distinction. because II leads to
self-improvement. Study your W
characters: endeavor to learn and to
supply your own deficiencies; never as
sumo to yourself qualities which you
do not possess; combine all this with
energy and activity and you cannot
predicate OF yourself. nor can others
predicate OF you. at what point you
may arrive at last. When ! see leaves

Of maintenance lasts. my friends swarm
in abundance. but in the winter of my

who hath no need Of friends.

A Secreted Musician.

A little stowaway took possession of
the sandbox Of a Franklin electric car
yesterday and made two successful
trips without molestation. He was
somewhat Of q musical genius, and at
intervals his strong notes rising from
all parts Of the car aroused the curios-
Wy Of the passengers. Who was the
ventriloquist? The faces Of men and
women were eagerly watched on one
side Of the car to find whence the music
proceeded. He was evidently an anna
teur, with a good opinion of his own
capabilities. At the end of the second
trip the conductor removed some
boards from the sandbox In order to
find him. but was outwitted by the
sound from another part Of the seat,
Not until the cushions and boards were

be elected. and then, with a sweep and

THE BICYCLE A MIRACLE
Never Before Has So Light . Structure
s~ustsined Such weights

Never Before Has So Light . Structure
Sustained Such WEIGHTS.
It seems absolutely impossible that q
wheel thirty inches In diameter. with .
wood rim and wire spokes. % light
that the whole structure weighs only
twenty ounces. should sustain without
permanent distortion the weight Of
four man standing On its side. with
supports at four points only under the
rim, and no hub support whatever.
1t also seems incredible that a cycle
capable of carrying a man Of 160 or It's
pounds In weight can be made 30 light
that the whole structure weighs less
than nine pounds. Yet this has been
done; wen at the roadster weight Of
20 or "a pounds. the cycle carries q
greater load with safety than has ever
been put on any other vehicle. The in
fiuence Of the cycle on social life, Is
already great. and will probably con-
stantly extend, as 1t provides an out
door sport and amusement for women
which did not previously exist in any
form In America. American women
are not walkers, but the cycle is per-
haps even better suited to woman's
use than mans. and seems destined to
add an outdoor element to the life Of
woman the world over which was not
possible without the winged Wheel"
The miracle of the bicycle lies In its
birth, death and resurrection: in Its in
credible load-bearing power in proper
ton to weight; In Its displacement Of
the horse al a means Of pleasure, and
In the selection Of It's mechanical de-
tails Of compressed air support, tubu-
lar framing and chain driving. All Of
these are details often before intro
duced In machines, but never before
permanently retained. That these cast
offs are ~undeniably power savers Is con-
vincingly proved by their continued
use under human muscle driving
power. Finally, the one great achieve
ment of the bicycle Is to increase the
human powers Of locomotion SO that
the slow-footed man Is made one Of the
swiftest Of all running creatures.
