rear portion of the bicycle is supported
by the runners in such manner that
the tire presses upon the ice sufficiently
hard to give the friction, or traction,'
necessary for propulsion. BY means
OF lever operated by the hands OF
the rider the pressure of the tire upon
the ice can be regulated, or if it is de-
sired to coass the rear wheel can be
raised entirely from the surface,
throwing the weight upon tho run
ners. These runners are but n few
inches apart. They resemble sn ex-
aggeratsd long Dutch skate.
The front wheel does not reyo,ve Mt
all. The runner is fastened firmly TO
it, not permitting it to touch TIE ice.
Steering is accomplished in tho or
binary manner, with the handle bars.
The brake consists OF number OF
sharp teeth or claws which are forced
into the ice, just in front of the rear
wheel, between the two runners.
it is not necessary to put the wheel
in motion before mounting. 1t will
stand by itself, and the rider can come
to full stop without getting OF. The
ice cycler need not conhne his travels
to frozen bodies of water. He can
ride anywhere that good Shedding is to
be found. Equipped with set of these
runners it is possible to ride wherever
o sleigh can travel unless the snow is
deep or soft.
This new attachment appears a-little
complicated, but in reality it If very
simple affair, and can be attached by
any one having slight knowledge Of
machinery in short time. No tools
are required beyond those habitually
carried in the tool bag, and the bicycle
is not damaged in any way. Detach-
ing the runners is as easy matter as
putting them on, aud they are adapted

the litter from the fallen buildings is

FRIEND AND SABBATH.

The Friend monthly journal walls
that a Sunday morning number of this
paper recently issued caused the
Christian people of Honolulu to eX-
real Christian could entertain or feel
that particular emotion. His finer re-
ligsOus sensibilities might be offended,
but if consistent and honest follower
of the Christ he could not assume to
be personally "insulted." The several
Christian men and women who re-
monstrated with The Star manage
ment upon the head of the Sunday
edition, did not at all express them
selves as having experienced sense
of insult" On the contrary, they
spoke gently, in sorrow, rather than
in anger and reasoned logically from
ii Christian standpoint. So far as The
Star has been able to learn, and it has
had the very best of opportunity for
informing itself, the esteemed Friend
is clear off the track, both as to senti,
ment and facts when it makes the
very worldly and spiteful allusion that
it has put forth
1.-THE Friend is devoted to the moral
and religious interests of Hawaii" is

This threat of the unsKilled politician
is remarkably at variance with the
tone or expression one would expect
in publication having such a plat
form of principles: 1T is not prob
able that either the Government or a
newspaper corporation can afford ia

Star does not approve of the Sunday
concert any more than does The
Friend, but as an independent paper
of the masses, free to resort to even
such argument as lawyers may use, It
prefers debate on merit to threats
when discussing a public matter. II

No end of factories in which tubes,

been converted into joint stock COM
panies, and the pages of the news

offerings of shares in similar enter

are so dubious as to suggest the

In every branch Of industrial
and mechanical activity there
are manufacturers who, by
superior talent. and ability, al
tain a prominence and a rupu-
tation beyond that of all
competitors and in few branches
of trade has the march OF pro.
gress wrought such a revolu
ton as in cutlery and kindred
lines of business. Olly a few
years ago it was impossible to
induce purchaser to use any
thing in the cutlery line, except
what was made by two or
three European houses, but
experience has taught these
very same purchasers thai
manufacturers in the United
States can equal and in many
cases excel their cousins across
the water.
Prominent among these
American houses is that Of the
John Russell Cutlery Co. OF
Turner Falls, Mass. What
with invention, Improvements
and the development Of skill
something closely akin to per-
lection has been reched by them
in the manufacture Of cutlery.
We handle their goods in all
lines from the largest and hand

knives. You can have your
choice of the sets in White
Bone ian excellent imitation Of

Der. We have a bread knife
that has the long, thin blade
for cutting the wafer like slices.
The handle has sheaf of wheat
carved in the natural wood, also

feature is the welding of the
handles to the blades in such a
manner that water will not
effect them.

Even with a super abund-
ance of depredatory bugs the
average woman of Honolulu
takes a great interest in
plants. The taste of many
runs to ferns because they are
little or no trouble to raise.
And there is money in it to
persons who wish to raise
them for sale. A plant for a
quarter will be worth two or
three dollars in a year if prop
erly attended to. That's the
reason we included Fern Pans
of English Pottery among
our goods.
They are new here and
have never been seen before.
If you are raising ferns come
and look at our window.
We've lots of things in there
suited to the flower garden or
in the house.
In the celebrated Mon
mouth Pottery we have Stone
Jars holding from a half
gallon to ten. Then there are
Butter Crooks, Fruit Jars,
Bean Pots, Stew Pans and
Water Pots.
The factory at Monmouth,
Illinois, holds the record for
the best glazing on stone of
any place in the United
States. 1t is their goods we
handle. We have also small
and large flower pots, with and
without saucers, and abso-
lutely perfect. We carry no
second quality. Then we
have other and cheaper flower
pots Of both English and
American make.
