WHEEL WIT AND WISDOM

Golf stockings nowadays cover a null

Ammonia is the latest cycle motor.
The smell of it is usually enough to
move most any one.
Talk of your own ability as wheel

you wish to make friends, listen while
other riders tell Of theirs.
The lighthouse keeper leads Il very

French racing men have a grievance
against the bands at race meets. The

keep up fast pace. Music hath charms
evidently for the racer as well as the
savage breast.

MEDICAL FEES.

scribe to the Sandbag Schedule AM
some look upon it with bicycle face.
In this connection the public will soon
learn who's who. There is no harm in
having little fun out of the situa-
ton, but at the same time it would be
well to preserve temper and avoid any
rash course. 1t has been said that
medicine is n humbug and surgery a
science, stil all people have a fond
weakness and an inbred liking for
the men who look wise and write pre-
scriptions. They are mostly pretty
good fellows and the ones in this cat
egory who have been led astray by po-
l;tical members of the fraternity can
readily be forgiven by their friends.
Finally, there is always the consola-
ton that nothing SO unjust as the fec
bill can ever stand for any length of
time

PROVIDE FOR WARRANTS.

1t was perhaps entirely proper to
pigeonhole the audit act presented
early in the session and missed by its
parents and everybody else since. One
brought TO the light of day again, pre-
sented as II separate act and placed
upon the statute books. Reference
Is made to the warrant plan, over
which there was at one time in sew
eral quarters SO much earnestness
and enthusiasm. The operative sys-
TEN of transactions between the Gov
eminent and individuals is faulty and
unsatisfactory. Say a creditor of the
Republic has to wait three to five
months for his money. In the interim
he has out an account which is u
burden he could not and would not
tolerate in private dealings. If he is
able at all to realize on his claim il
is only with the greatest difficulty
and by means of perplexing negota'
tons. Now, il the warrant system,
which il in use in every town, county
and State in the United States, was in
force, there would be clear sailing,
The creditor, when there was no ready
coin in the Government strong boxes,
would receive a warrant bearing in
terest and upon which he could real
ize without the slightest trouble. This
would not only be fair and business
like, but il would increase and equal
ice circulation, beneftting the mer
chants and the community and not al
all mountaineering the Government.
BY all means let progressiveness he
shown and strain reduced by adop-
ton of the warrant system.

There will be more tandems built this
year than were put together during the
past three years, "a bicycle built for

popularity for several reasons. 1t is pos
sible to be more companionable on o
two scatter The wheelmen who ride In
pairs can converse along the road, while
on single wheels this is an extremely
difficult occupation. Then, too. the ex-
ertion is much less. Two men on SO
pound tandem can cut pigeon wings
around cyclists on single wheels and
then not half try. A lady who is not
able to guide the intricate silent steed
may be escorted around the country
without any danger Of mishap-not &C
much chance, at least, as though she
were riding single wheel. Tandem
riding is becoming very popular New

The Legislators now have beauti-
full chance to show the stuff of which
they are made. They have reached
the stage where some rush work must
be done. To The Star it appeals as
imperative that session extension
be avoided. Therefore the members
will be required to work overtime and
with unusual speed. There is not n
great danger in this for the reason
that all have had ample time to study
the acts before the two branches.

If the citizen who prefers
life to uncertainties, the incon-
vcuicncc and bother of treat
ing Bright's disease or fever

of natural stone, the water
being filtered through a cylind-
rical disc. This disc is easily
removed for cleansing and may
be made perfectly clean by a
moments brushing.
The filter has not been
named yet, but another, iden-
teal in shape and manufacture
is called the Success. Ours is
just as good without a name

see, the name amounts t.
something. We have also 6

The bicycle tribe on the Ha.
waiian Islands number some
dozen or fifteen different makes
and every one is claimed to be
a high grade wheel, but as a
head magistrate, or supreme
master, the Tribune was elect
ed to fill that very honorable
position as soon as it appeared
in the field of competition.
This wheel has had some
very hard tests since its intro
duction in the Islands, but in
each and every case has it done
all and even more than was
demanded Of it.
Any champion or amateur
who wishes to know of the
everlasting virtues OF the Tri-
bune has the perfect right TO
demand of us the reasons why
they should ride this wheel and
we are always at liberty to
spend any amount of time in
SO doing; all that we ask is that
you give the Tribune a fair
and unbiased trial and we will
not fear for the result.
The Scientific Americon
which is the acknowledged
leading paper in all matters
pertaining to science, selected
the Tribune, from the hundred
or more makes, as the wheel
built on the most scientific
principles and in its issue Of
January a, 1896, devoted a
page to it.

Ia apoligiz'ng TO the other
manufacturers for picking out
the Tribune and speaking in
such glowing terms it does so
for the sole and solitary reason
that the publishers believe the
manufacturers to use only
the best material in its
construction. The paper
reviews the history Of bicycles
to the extent of comparing the
American wheels with the Eng
ish make and the increased
demand that has existed within
the past fsw years for the
American make in preference
to its European cousin, and
finishes with this paragraph:
1--WE select as the represent
tative of such a factory the
works of the Black Manufacture
ing Company, Of Erie, Pa, a
company which produce the
highest grade of wheel and
which put it on the market
purely on the merits without
the adventurous advertisement
OF paid riders. The wheel made
by this company, the Tribune
Bicycle" embodies the bes,
possible practice and is cores
pondingly free from structural
variations of improved merit"
Such praise from such a high
source should satisfy anyone
Of the superior merits Of the
Tribune wheels.
We have just received ex
Australia a new shipment of
them in all varieties OF the 500
patterns, in Tandems, Racers,
Ladies or Gents Wheels, and
shall be happy to show the
1896 improvements to intend
