rHE POWER 1T REQUIRES.
Per Cent. Needed TO Move RaiIwa,
Car. a Wagon or a I.icyeIe.


Car, n Wagon a bicycle.
The exact power required to propel a
bicycle under all the various conditions
OF road surface and grades has never
been determined by actual tests, so far
as is known, but from what is known
about the resistance of vehicles of all
kinds it is possible to calculate it with
a fair degree of accuracy.
The force required to overcome the
friction Of Il bicycle on a level road
may be estimated from data obtained
from other sources. To move a car
on n railroad track when the rails are
made of steel requires force of about
three-tenths of one per cent. of the
weight. In this case the principal por-
tion of the force is absorbed by the
friction of the aXles. In bicycle the
axle friction is very small, but the roll
ing friction is considerably greater
than that of railroad car, owing to
the difference in the smoothness of the
road. AS one Indication of what this
difference may be, we have the fact
that the force required to move a wagon
varies from ] 70 per cent. on a hard road
TO two per cent. on cobble stones, and
three per cent. on soft ground The
friction of the wagon axles will absorb
about one-half of one per cent, thus
leaving about one per cent. to overcome
the rolling friction on hard road, with
more yielding iron ties. On a clear
asphaltuln road this would be reduced
about 25 per cent. The increased speed
of pneumatic tires over the solid cushion
proves that they act to reduce the roll
ing friction, therefore it is very prob
able that the actual force required to
propel n bicycle over a smooth as
phaltuIn road viii not be over one-half
of enc per cent. of the load. This is
only trifle more than is required on
a railroad track, and may be remem-
bered that the difference in axle fric-
ton is very great, and the saving in
this direction in a bicycle may be
enough to offset the extra rolling fric-
tion.
Assuming the bicycle resistance en-
a level asphaltum road to be one-haIf of
one per cent, the force required to
? keep the wheel in motion on such
road would be half pound for each
hundredweight, and the average weight
of rider and wheel would be well within
200 pounds. On soft, sandy roads this
force might run up to three or four
pounds. AS to the question of power,
an average man is able to do one-sixth
as much work as n horse. So, if the
wheel is propelled at Il speed of ten
miles an hour on n soft country road
it will be necessary for the rider to
exert about two-thirds of the average
man poyyer This velocity would if
kept up for any length of time, prove
very tiresome for those who are not
possessed of more than ordinary
strength and endurance. The same
speed on n hard road would only call
for an eXertion of from one-siXth to
one-quarter Of a man power, according
to the condition of the surface.-N. Y.

DOOM OF THE NOVEL.

Discorned in the Window Whrre Bicycles
Are Exhibited.
A deliver into literature has this tc
say about the bicycle:
Speaking as distinguished reviewer
nm not ungrateful to the bicycle. The
more cycling the less novel reading
and therefore the smaller income fol
the scribe who has to explain the merits
of the nOvelists to an indolept public.
This merely commercial point Goes
not excite any misgiving in my mind
as to the civilizing influence of the cycle
manufacturer.
Windows in which bicycles are ex-
hibited for sale have for me the fascina-
tion 1 used to find at the booksellers
Staring in at n window the other day
was accosted by friend, who said:
$50 you're going to start cycling at
last! The very thing for a torpid liver!"
He descanted on my liver for some
minutes, and then urged me on no ac-
count to buy the particular brand OF
bicycle was gazing at. 1t had secret
vices; it was possessed with n devil;
whereas, he knew n bicycle which might
make angels wings moult with envy.
1 explained that 1 had no desire to
ride bicycle, and he said, with amaze
ment:
"Then why glue your nose to the
Window"
Because I rejoice to read there the
doom of the English novel"
He shook his head and went off to
spread the rumor among Iny friends
that 1 was suffering from mental de
rangement.
Publishers are said to be complaining
about the effects of the cycling epidemic
on the book market. There is n sad de-
cline of novel reading. Instead of buy
ing books, the young and middle-aged
of both sexes spend their money on BIZ
cycles.
Beauty does not languish Il whole
afternoon in n hammock with n ro-
nance; she "scorches" amid the heat
and dust of highway.
BY his unsold copies the publisher sits
down and weeps when he remembers
the copious editions of other years.
Surely there is a better plan than that.
Why doesn't he become an expert
cyclst, and lie in wait on the high road
fornovices who have deserted his books? ?
There is an apt story of Wesley, which
Mr.. Birrell told the other day.
The evangelist was riding and over
took stranger, who was also mounted.
They fell to discussing religion, and
when the stranger learned that his men
tor was Wesley he turned to flee.
"I had the better horse" remarks
Wesley in his journal, $50 1 showed him
his heart all the way to Northampton -
Why should not the publisher show
the beauties of his new novel to the less
experienced cyclist? Should his com.
panion have a bad accident, how delight
full to thrust precious volume into the
hand of the PROSTATE man and ride
away with the righteous glow of n good
Samaritan.-N. y. Mercury.

WAsHINGToN, Nov. II. -Secre ayr
Morton in his annual re port, which
viii shortly be made public. will re-
view the economical fe Itures of his ad-
ministration and cite figures to show
that he has covered back into the
treasury 81, 900, 900 of the appropri-
alton for the agricultural department
during the four years, or $500, 900 each
year. One of the principal features
VII be a lengthy refutation of the
claims of what he calls calamity
howlers." He will contend that agri-
cultural interests are not deciining;
that ~ per cent of the farms in the
country are without any encum brance.
while the encum brance on The remain
ing % per cent. was incurred in the
purchase and improvement of the
lands. The report will state that the
greatest ratio of mortgages is found in
the north Atlantic states, and that
New Jersey shows especially heavy en-
cum brances. The secretary will decry
the lavish publications of the govern
ment and show pruning down of the
literary output of the department.
Immigration to the United States.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 16.-The annual
report of the commissioner-gencra of
immigration, made public to-day,
shows that the total arrivals during
the fiscal year aggregated 343, ,267. an
increase of 81, 70S, over the preceding
year. OF this total, 4O,4Gs were landed,
and 1920 were debarred and deported
at the expense of the various steam
ship lines by which they came 10 this
country. OF those deported 776 were
under contract to perform labor in the
United States, made prior to their ar
rival, and 2,2O3 were retained as be-
longing 10 the class of aliens prohibited
admittlnce ly the act of March
3. There were returned to the
countries from which they came
9, 80 who had become charges within
one year after their arrival in the
United States AS to occupations,
most of the arrivals were of the classes
designated as ski led and unskilled
laborers, with some professionals.
Great Military Demonstration.
WASHINGTON, Nov. I'm the in
augura tion of William Mckinley WASH
ington will witness the greatest mill
tary demonstration since the grand re-
view at the close of the civil war The
recent campaign has stirred the people
deeply, and without any outside incen-
tive for patriotism the Inauguration
would be attended with an unusual
display. The prospect of trouble with
a foreign power will but serve to aug
ment the national spirit. The desire
of patriotic Americans to make dis
play which will convince European
powers that the nation which brooks
war with this country will be under
taking very large contract, will not
be discouraged by the officers of the
government should there be any occa-
sion for such a demonstration when
the day of the Inauguration rolls
around.

terra and lack of honesty that so many
women display at the card table. IT is
strange and most disgusting to see the
glitter in pretty eyes that should only
look appealing or coquettish as she
realizes the prize is almost within her
grasp. Her greed far exceeds that of the
inveterate gambler; he plays for the love
Of excitement and for the pleasure of
waiting for the hazard of the die but
the prize fiend at a card party cares not
for the pleasure of playing; it is the
prize she is clutching for.
"She forgets TO follow suit and wants
to take back a play every now and then
so busy watching her rival for tho
prize, who has just gone up to the next
table.
"When she is point ahead and the
bell about to ring she deals so slowly
that it would be laughable were it not
disgusting; when she is behind she
makes no pretense at shuffling the cards,
but slams them together, sometimes
half faced the wrong way, and deals
with such nervous haste that she drops
several.
"And she holds her card ready to play
after the lead is made and drops it on
when that of the next player has scarce
ly touched the table, instead of waiting
and studying with puckered brow the
situation, as she did thehand before. -

advises southern woman. Never mind
if you have in your dressing-room g
fine, full-length pier glass, the hand mir
ror can't be dispensed with. Especially
if you are the woman who uses the least
little bit of makeup.
A little makeup is many times advisa-
bic, even necessary, and, of course, it is
innocent enough, a touch to the eye
brows and slight kiss of nice powder
to the face generally improves and is
recommendable when ones face is apt
to be shiny.
But, for beauty's sake, don't appear in
public after even the slightest attempt
at makeup without first using the hand
glass thoroughly.
Take it to the light, the strongest one
in your room, turn your back SO that
the glare will strike the glass, then peer
into it. That is the way you will appear
! to the naked eye of your fellow-beings.
If there is daub of powder visible, a
little too evident darkening of the
brows, the glass will reveal it as clear as
would the eye of beholder.
The glass placed against the wall
softens these defects, and they are not
noticeable, but the hand-glass reveals
them mercilessly; therefore use it on all
occasions.
met a charming woman the other
morning. She was daintily dressed in
the freshest of morning dresses. A be-
coming flower garden of hat perched
above her glossy, black braids, and she
would have presented a very refreshing
sight but for one thing-her lovely
black front lashes were laden with pow
der.
She had used her puff before going
out and had neglected to scrutinize the
effect, which was very peculiar, indeed,
marring whatever good effect the wom-
ans beauty might have had.
So that leads to another bit of advice.
Always remember after using puff to
