RIDE A RAMBLER,

How do we know? Well,
look at the records at the track
on the 9th of June. 3 firsts
5 seconds and 3 thirds for the
Rambler. 3 frsts, no seconds

be sure this time was made by
a Tribune rider, but to do it
he had to have a Rambler,
and every one knows that Geo.
Martin, who holds the record
for fastest time in the Relay
Race, rode Rambler Wheel
and thus got there. The wheels
we handle did not get their
reputation in a day, but after
a year Of hard work on the
part of the makers, and now

reason that out of the Is

letters from Thomas Gainsborough, the
painter, to the earl of Dartmouth in
1771, which are included in the latest
volume issued by the historical manu-

opinion had arisen between his
lordship and Gainsborough as to the
likeness Of the countess of Dartmouth
painted by the latter. In the course OF
the correspondence, which is thorough

HOW COFFEE WAS DISCOVERED


A Traveller In Abyssinia Stumbled Upon
the Shrub.
The following is given as the original
discovery of coffee: Near the middle
of the fifteenth century a poor Arab
was travelling through Abyssinia, and,
finding himself weary and weak from
fatigue he stopped near grove. Then
being in want Of fuel to cook his rice,
he cut down tree which happened to
be covered with dead berries. His
meal being cooked and eaten, the :rav-
eller discovered that the half-burned
berries were very fragrant. He col
lected number of these, and, on
crushing them with a stone, he found
that their aroma increased to great
extent. While wondering at this. ne
accidentally let fall the substance in
a. can which contained his scanty sup
ply OF water. 10, what a miracle.
The almost putrid water was almost
instantly purified He brought 1t tc
his lips. 1t was fresh. agreeable, and
in n moment the traveller had so far
recovered his strength and energy as
to be able to resume his journey. The
lucky Arab gathered as many berries
as he could and. having arrived a:
Alden, in Arabia, he informed the musti
of his discovery. That worthy divine
was an inveterate opium smoker, who
had been suffering for years from the
influence of that poisonous drug. lie
tried an infusion of the roasted berries
and was so delighted at the recovery OF
his own vigor that, in gratitude to the
tree, he called 1t cahuah, which in
