MoPoLITAN. The problems involved
In woman's use of the Bicycle are so
startling and 40 numerous, under the
rapid evolution of this art that one
welcomes careful discussion of the
subject by so trained a mind and so
clever a writer as Mrs Reginald de
Koven. The COSMOPOLITAN illustrates
Mrs. de Koven's article with a series
of poses by professional models. A
new sport. more thrilling than any
known to Nimrod, more dangerous
than was ever experienced by even a
Buffalo Bill, is exploited In the same
issue In an article on "Photographing

cents for the COSMOPOLITAN means
inferiority from literary point OF
view is dispelled by the appearance
in this number Of such writer's as
Sir Lewis Morris, Sir Edwin Arnold,
Edgar Fawcett, Tab, w. Clark Rus

Sentiment.

Fewe would expect to hear of senti-
ment In aTtown OF such recent growth
and practical trend as Atlanta. That
they should interest themselves to get a
show for themselves and neighbors this
fall Is surprising; but they have had
g sensation for the last two weeks in
their effort to bring the old Philadel-
phia Liberty bell down there to be u
part of the show; the city council OF
the town of Brotherly Love have at last
consented for the old bell to be brought
down and a special coach will be built
for It's transportation and a committee
OF council will come in State as a guard
OF honor. The ons and daughters OF
the revolution, that is is to say of La
fayette, Koskiusko, Pulaski, DeKalb,
and Steuben will be attracted and as
Atlantans were mostly red men when
the troubles with the mother country
happened the descendants of these
worthless will be thrice welcomed. In
the meanwhile the old liberty bell
might be utilized this side of the Sa-
vannah and this would be q good point
to encourage. Tillman, John Gary
Evans, Y. j. Pope, Eugene Gary, Put
she Judges Buchanan, Townsend and
others OF that ilk, to wit the whiskey
constabulary, might he sent over as q
special exhibit in lieu Of any other con-
tribution. There is no telling how lib
serty chimes might impress them and
some healthy ideas Of the "liberty Of
the subject" might be brought home.
Besides the personel suggested would
be a unique attraction IN itself and
contribute to the success of the show.
