There has been q great deal OF contro-
yersy as to which country the original
manufacturers OF wood rims belonged.
The secretary of the Cycle Board OF Trade
said recently: America now makes the
best bicycles In the world, but the bicycle
is an English production. The old high or
dinary,' the little .Facile' and the present
chain machine are English. The diamond
frame is English, and also the 'hayfork'
frame which preceded 1t. The weldless
steel tubing is English. The bail pedal was
first made In England. The 'taDgeutiar
spoke is English.
The pneumatic tire originated in Ireland.
This country has aided immensely In per
fecting small details, but she has made just
one important contribution, aud that Is
the wood rim. We may take comfort
In the great value of this one contribution.
1t takes two pounds weight off the wheels.
supplies elasticity In the place where elas-
ticity is needed and increases the strength.
III effective application OF driving pow
CT were the only need We should make
the structure as rigid as bar OF steel,
but some elasticity is imperative. 1t must
not be in the frame-a springy frame
would be destructive-but it can be 10 the
wheels. The wheels must be tense and
driving power is wasted; but the wheel
can have elasticity in the direction of its
own diameter. The tire furnished that,
but there was not enough of 1t, SO the
wood rim came In.

There would be less trouble II a wheel
woman or wheelman, for thatmatter, would
forego a bit of her right while on the road,
and in case fractious team is met, she
would dismount altogether until the team
has passed. The laws Of the land give her
one undivided half Of the road, but how
mu ch better 1t would be to forego that right
at times and perhaps teach the opponent
a lesson in politeness-
She might study a little etiquette of her
own while on the streets and ride as +
she had the comfort of others than herself
at heart. 1t may be according to law and
