ENGLAND ONLY HALE CRAZY.
wheeling Not So Much Of Fad Abroad

Wheeling Not So Much of Fad Abroad
as It Is In the United States : y =
Bicycling is not nearly so much of
craze in England as here; and the
reason therefor, as Figured it out after
much interested investigation, is illus
trative OF notable difference between
the United States and England in ath-
letic and sporting matters" said,
wheelman just returned from trans
atlantic trip to New York Sun report
er. Because of the superb roads to
be found in every part of England
expected to find the country simply
overrun with bicyclists. But l didn't.
OF course there are bicyclists to be met
all over the land, but I soon learned
that the sport had by no means the
general hold on the people disposed to
exercise or athletics that it has here.
1t has taken comparatively greater
hold upon the women than the men,
which is entirely consistent with my
theory. Here in the United States the
growth OF bicycling has meant very
largely the growth of the habit of TAX
ing exercise. We do not go into sports
actively, as the English do. We, as a
people, don't play baseball, football, or
any other athletic game. We are
nightly interested in sports, but most
ly in seeing professionals at play in
them. Or the twenty thousand people
who go to see the three or four big FOOT
ball games in year, how many play
football? How many Of the ten thou
sand or more cranks who watch the
paid baseball mines ever play the game
themselves? Now in England there are
actually dozens of football and cricket
clubs in every town, and every village
and hamlet has it's team. They play
cricket all summer and football all
winter Every fine evening and every
| Saturday afternoon every bit of turf
near town or village is covered with
| players of some game or another. Sport
is a profession here; a pastime there.
Here the mass of the people are inter-
ested as spectators; there as partici'
( pants. Bicycling is there only an al
! tentative means Of exercise and amuse-
ment; here it is practically the one
form of athletics that the whole people
have taken to. It's a mighty good
thing that something has turned up at
last to turn the attention of the nation
to healthful exercise and athletics. The
bicycle fad will wane after while, fol-
it isn't an ideal sport, although in many
ways an attractive one. But other pop.
ular outdoor sport will follow in its
wake, and I imagine the bicycle craze
will figure as the beginning of an i'm
portant era in American history.

power in all the departments as soon
as the economy of the change should
be demonstrated. Now the Maryland
Steel company has followed suit by
deciding to make use of electric mo-
tors in place Of steam engines in its
extensive works at Sparrows Point.
The acting superintendent of the cleo
trical department states that it is the
intention to utilize electrical power Il
great deal more in the future than in
the past in running the motors in the
shops and for other purposes. All of
the small engines will be taken out

The Rest Way to Rest.

tabouret. The little footstool, inGts

Amply supporting weary legs. the
tabouret, together with an easy chair,
furnishes a delightful substitute for
the couch when resting and reading
are to be combined.
Physicians all agree that a woman
should as much as practicable keep
her legs on level with the rest Of the
body, and occasional Indulgence in
that mannish trick of placing them
even higher would help amazingly to-
ward doing away with those tired feel
ings and that dragged sensation.
Fashionable women, to whom the
necessity Of never showing fatigue
and of ever looking their ''best' has
taught the knack of acquiring maxi

fast falling into masculine habits of

In the first place, it ought to be a..
law for every woman that she should
never ride a bicycle after a distinct
feeling Of WEAKNESS comes oyer her.
For those who are beginning, especial
ly, and in a measure. for all women
there is a danger Of riding out Ger
tain distance, and only turning to-
ward home when this feeling of weari
ness comes on. In such cases the
strain on the nervous system all the
way home is very great, and by the
time the end Of the journey is reach
ed-fOr it has become a journey by
this time-the rider is exhausted to
such an extent that severe headache
or some more serious indisposition is
the result. There is no other reason
for this than the fact that she did not
prescribe for herself certain distance
before starting out, which was not to
be exceeded under any circumstances.
No ordinary woman who rides for
pleasure once or twice a week should
do over about ten miles at time.
This is perhaps an hours ride, that
quarter before that distance is COW
cred; and if she does not feel fresh
and in glow when she stops, she
may be certain that she has ridden
too long. Naturally there is that
healthy tired feeling which anyone
| recognizes after athletic exercise, but
| it is quite different from and never to
| be mistaken for the WEAKNESS which
comes from too much exertion and
straining of the nerves and muscles.
Very few women have ever been in
jured on a bicycle who kept to this
rule, and limited their rides to nor
! NAL distances.
The limit of distance, which is desig-
mated by the first feeling of weari-
ness, is only q little more important
than the limit of speed which the fe-
male frame is capable of undergoing
under healthy exercising rules.
Whether a man can ride at full speed
for long distance and still retain his
good health is a doubtful question,
but it does not particularly concern us
in the present discussion. 1t is quite
certain, however, that no woman eau
keep up high rate Of speed for even
generous portion of a mile and not
create the beginnings of injuries. The
added strength required to increase
your speed even little after a certain
amount of power has been expended
is out Of all proportion to the results

The big double bed ought not to

tie single iron or brass bedstead with
a mattress than can be kept easily
aired and cleaned is the bed that
ought to be universal. And the heavy
comforter ought to be banished with
the double bed, for it belongs to the
log cabin and the backwoods. The,
proper covering is a lightweight
blanket that can be frequently washed

handed down by jewellers in Arctic

How q Fly's Trottfng Sounds in q
NicrOnhOne.


The improvements which w. H.
Soulby has lately added to the micro
phone, or "sound magnitier," makes it
one of the most marvellous mechanical
contrivances of the age. The special
construction Of this instrument is of
no particular interest to anyone except
experts, but what is told of it's Won
derful powers as magnitier Of sounds
we'll as the scientific ard unscientiic
vel las the scientific and unscientific
readers of ''Notes for the Curious"
After the instrument had been COM
pleted with the exception of few fin
fishing touches, Soulby found it abso-
lutely necessary to keep the door Of
his workshop tightly closed so as to
admit no sounds from the outside,
otherwise the inarticulate rumblings
given off by the "ejector' would have
become unbearable. Even with closed
doors the cap had to be kept constant
ly in place on the receiver to keep the
instrument from sending forth roar,
which previous investigation had
proved to be a combination of sounds
produced by watch-beats, breathing,
the hum of flies, etc.
A fly walking across the receiver of
the instrument made q sound equal to
a horse walking across bridge, and
when Mr.. Soulby laid his arm across
the box, the blood rushing in his veins
gave forth a sound which much re-
sembled that made by the pump Of a
large steam engine. The playing Of a
piano in a house across the street was,
when elected from Soulby's machine,
, like the roar of an avalanche, and the
washing of dishes in the kitchen Of a
house across the alley made a sound
which the inventor of the machine
said was "a burden to his SOUL
