In Favor Of the Bicycle.

Much has been written from time to
time in the antagonism of bicycle rid
ing as healthful sport Those who
have been misled would do well to read
the following address, delivered by Pro-
fessor Albert Abrams to the students OF
the Cooper Medical College of San
Francisco: ''In the present state of
medical progress distinction is cheaply
attained by the invention of name.
The bicycle hump is a chimera which
deserves humiliation. No indubitable
case of spinal deformity, the result of
the STOPPING posture assumed by many
riders, has ever been reported. This
position sometimes shows lack of grace,
but the shoulders are held stiffiy back
in order to obtain a firm grip for the
extraordinary muscles of breathing,
and the bend is hinge movement at
the axis of the hip joint, and not for
ward curvature of the spinal column.
From the standpoint of the pbysiolo-
gist, the forward bend is the best, in
that it enables the rider desirous of
speed to develop maximum degree OF
effort with the least distress. 1t is even
claimed that the jar caused by the vi
bration of the bicycle produces condi-
ton analogous to the railway spine.
The fact is that the vibrations of the
machine are of real value in many
nervous conditions. a variety of vi
brating machines, beginning with the
Tremoussoir of the old French expert
menters, and continued in the appa-
ratus devised in such variety by the ex
ponents of the massage and movement
cures, shows how widely recognized are
the benefits of a gentle and rapid vibra-
ton In the treatment of insomnia. the
vibration produced by the wheel is of
great remedial value.

No More Crying Babies.

Though the sound of a baby's crying
is never agreeable music even to the
most devoted mother. it has been held
for centuries that this was an aftiictlon
from which there was no escape. III
has remained for the very new women
who are in charge of Il well known New
York nursery to discover that an In
fant's screams are wholly superhuous
in n well regulated home. This is the
method by which discontented babies
are. persuaded to hold their peace: AS
soon as a child begins to cry the nurse
catches it up, holds ii gently and places
her hand over its nose and mouth so
that it cannot breathe. The crying
ceases directly and the child is allowed
TO breathe freely again. Should it a
second time attempt to scream the
same simple and effectual method is
applied. This is repeated until the baby
imagines that the painful stoppage of
the breath is caused by its own effort to
scream, and so is careful to keep quiet.
The nurses attest that this regime
works to a charm, that the most we'll
bred quiet is always preserved in the
nursery. and that the self control eX-
hibited bv the tots of three months old.
aven when in actual pain and distress,
is something remarkable. Roaring will
therefore be eliminated from the ac-
complishments of the modern baby.

one. Don't gor' but he pushed heI
gently backward into the room.
Bolt the door behind mer' he said
and passed out.
Sue stood motionIess in the center OF
the room waiting for it TO begin. Dave
pulled the trigger of his gun and
turned the corner and instantly four
weapons barked with one voice.
Sue heard something heavy fall
against the side of the cabin; then i'll
stantly the sharp, clear utterance of n
rife answered the carbines again and
still again. One carbne only an
swered; then all was still; only the fret
full warblng of wren in the nearby
Cherokee rose hedge breaking the tense
silence of the drowsy afternoon hush.
Anxiety conquering terror, Sue drew
back the bolt, throwing the door wide
open. A broad stream of yellow light
and rush of heat met her, passing
over n figure Oh its knees that always
trembled at the sight of deep water.
Dave gasped his last breath, Bleed.
/ ing and shattered, he crept to her feet
after the manner of a faithful dog, to
die. In the grave gray eyes that were
raised to hers there was the light of the
exaltatioh of "A passing spirit, triumph
ant over the shadow of death which al
ready darkcned them. His lips moved
| in the contortion of a smile that broke
into an articulate murmur.
81 done said that toe purtec' yo'
honah and happiness | would th'ow
away my wuthless life-an' done hit"
And Dave, with the crimson glory of
his "wuthless life's" blood streaming
| from many wounds, passed to the judg-
ment reserved for him from the begin
ming of all things.
! The wren shivered out her fragmen-
tary song TO heaven, the perfume of the
Cherokee rose filed the air of the fad
ing day, and the setting sun, streaming
though the cabin door. touched the still
figure of Dave, wrapping him in molten
splendor as though with the face of a
dying god.
Poor Dave, though Il coward all his
life long. he had earned the reward of
heroism mt the very end. Greater love
hath 10 man than this, that he lay
down his life for his friend. detroit

This Odd Man Duns Himself.

''Mr Clark wants to see you" said
an office boy as he entered the private
room of lawyer in the Gable Tele-
graph Building, where l was on bust
ness.
'sTell him I'm out" answered the law
yer. Hang that man!' he continued,
when the boy had disappeared. He
worries the life out of me. He owes me
eighty dollars, and called to tell me
when he would pay it. Three years
ago | loaned him the money, and the
day it was due he called to tell me how
sorry he was that he couldn't pay, and
promised it the next Wednesday, When
Wednesday came he met me on the
street and made another promise.
have had to change my lunching place
four times because he insisted on sitting
at the table with me and telling how it
was he couldn't pay the eighty dollars
just then and when he would pay it.
He called at my house when was en-
tertaining gentlemen at dinner, and
said he woldn't accept gift of the
money because he felt in honor bound
to pay it. When | tried to get rid of
him by sending him eighty dollars,
anonymously, so he could pay the debt,
he called to tell me he was going away
for couple of weeks, and when he re-
turned would pay the debt. For. three
years he has kept this thing up, calling
here and going out of his way to meet
me, so as to dun himself and promise
TO nay the eighty dollars next week"

hust live for love and Danish fear
is never too late to mend"
never too late to mend, my lad,
matter what people say.
|no mans nature is wholly bad,
en if old and gray;
lin our journey toward the grave,
I'm we reach the end,
is time to change and time to
save
is never too late to mend"
Herbert Cass Adams.
