girl rode down Broad street yesterday
She was girl in the sense that she was
single. but she had evidently been so for
nearly fifty years Her costume was a
marvel of antiquity. but it was not her own
personality nor her boomers which at
tracted the most attention. On the handle
bar In front of her a green parrot was
perched. The birds feathers were rufiled
by the wind and Polly seemed to be enjoy
ing the ride immensely, for she chartered
and squawked and tapped her wings at a
great rate. Ihere was string tied to the
frame of the wheel and at the other end of
the line small dog was securely tied. The
little animal chased along as best he could
barking enthusiastically. The big reserve
policeman at Broad and Chestnut streets
motioned to the rider to stop.
You're on the wrong side OF the street, ."
said he. Don't do it again or you'll be
fiji ed"
The lady was inclined to be pugnacious.
She complained that she would not have
been molested if her husband had been
with her
Well, why don't you bring him along"
said the reserve.
The lady blushed and replied, quite pa

A Caution TO MfddIe-Ased DicycIists.

From the British Medical Journal
Any form Of exercise or sport which
makes serious demands on the attention
on quickness of eye and hand, and ON CT
DURANGO, ought to be taken up by people
who have reached middle life, and are en-
gagei in sedentary occupation, only with
great cirCumspection. The lesson has been
learned by Alpine climbers through msny
litter experiences. 1t is pretty generally
held by them that most of the fatal acci-
dents in mountain climbing occur through
the failure at the critical moment of soue
man who has taken to mount aineering too
late in life, and who is. per aps, also out
OF condition. An old dog cannot be taught
tricks. according to the proverb; and though
1t Is disagreeabfe to have to realize that
we have passed the age when we can excel
in a rev pastime requiring special skill to
avoid accident, and youthful adaptability
and elasticity to avoid overstrain, 1t Is the
part of wisdom to accept the inevitable.
There is no reason why middle-aged men,
and even those who have passed middle
age. should not take to cycling: but 1t
should be with a frank recognition of the
limitations which age imposes. Great speed.
long distances and hill climbing put a
strain upon the constitution. and will find
out the weak places-the parts of the sys-

From the Chicago Post.
Sam Wood. whose name is written all
| over the state of Kansas was one of the
brightest lawyers and best newspaper men
in the state. He made and wasted several
fortunes before effort to change a county
seat ended in gun fight which cost him
his life. Not overscrupulous. he still had
his good traits. and he has almost as many
friends as enemies. even now.
One time Sam Wood went out to a new
county seat and opened a law office Pres
entity he found a flaw in the title by which
about half the town site had been conveyed
to the present holders, and he picked up
the link and served notice he would give
quit claim deeds to every lot if the people
in possession would pay him. II not, he
gave notice he would begin suits in eject
ment
They were wild They were awfuIly fright

a committee. The committee looked into
the matter and then went to Sam Wood
with their reply.

was the reply.

repeated the chairman. 1T will stop at the
tank for water. You have just time, Mr..
Wood, to catch that train. and / wouldn't

he began to unwind rope he had looped
up under his ulster.
But through freights don't carry pas
sengers.' said Sam Wood, fully grasping
the situation and looking swiftly over the
utterly hopeless situation.
This freight will carry passenger, said
the chairman of committee calmly. Put
the end of this rope over that awning pole.
Mr.. Committeeman. 1t will carry a pas
senger, ana he can go live dead

time
But Sam Wood was in the middle of the
street and half block away, running for
dear life He caught the freight at the
water tank; and he never returned.

From the New York sim.
There was a crowd at Broadway and 31st

no reason for it, 1t impeded traffic and

Occasionally a roar Of laughter rose from
the multitude. drowning the noise of cable
cars and wagons. The windows in the I'M
perial Hotel and in all the neighboring
cafes and stores were; crowded with eager
faces. The police were elsewhere.
II wonder what it's all ahout?" said a
young woman to her escort.

DR.. Hubert Fuller in the Arena
For when no new invention has recently
occurred to greatly facilitate the manu-
facture of an article, there are three COM
monty observed ways of cheapenin, prices:
First The manufacturer may reduce
wages.
Second. He may increase the number of
hours of his employees.
Third. He may make inferior goods
But better than all these, he may form
a trust or combine and so do all three to-
gether. Aye, he may do better still; for if
he Is good practical business man like
the controller of the sugar trust he may
combine factories with an aggregate CAPT.
tai Of seven millions, and water the stock
up to fifty millions. And having done this
he may now proceed to pacify the general
public by both cheapening the price of
sugar and increasing wages 10 per cent.
simply because of the absolute bulge he has
ON the stock market. Under such condi-
TORS legitimate business becomes a gigaE-
Tic gamble; wages may be anything or
Iothing, and sugar the same; for by virtue
OF his control of the stock, the manufae-
tCrer is SO able to influence the market as
to run the greatest skin game on earth
whether the wheels go round or not. In
recent victims rush in to buy stock the
gilded youth about town, the widows and
orphans even,who, the railroads and manu-
facturers tell us when we demand a settle

however. our easy-geins public gets angry
and alarmed, until one morhing we wake
up and read in our newspapers that a great
university has been endowed with millions
OF dollars by the president of some enor-
mously wealthy and pernicious trust. Pro-
fessors are engaged at splendid salaries to
teach the advantages of sound" money
ard protection to the youth of our land.
Building after building is erected; granite

that one Of the professors has been caught

that the earth do move around the sun;
that truth is greater than 'trust;" and
of course his head Is instantly chopped or
and his body thrown to the dogs.

HuDpy Ioarcrr" Of ~ Gentle Protest
0nd q Good Square Meal.

From the New York Sun.
III there is anything L despise and de-
test said Mrs. Billtops. Its melancholy"
Mrs. Billtops is not often SO vigorous in
speech as this. and when she is MIR. Bill
tops knows that it is time to brace up. As
a matter of fact he takes usually cheerful
view; but when he is depressed, as he is
occasionally. he IS glum and silent and SOL
emn enough; and he makes everybody
around him wretched. The children. sit
ting at the table, stop talking. the din
ner gets cold, and everybody is chilly and
miser able except perhaps, at the last, Mr..
Billtops himself. who finds, finally. sort
of melancholy pleasure in the general de-
preston that he has caused
But Mrs. B;lltops has no use for anybody
that casts a gloom. She has her own
trials, but she never bothers anybody else
about them: outwerdly, at least, she is
cheerful and spirited always: and she can't
abide anybody that lets his troubles so
far overcome him that he inilicts them on
other people. too; and SO She says:
IF there is anything l despise it's mel
anchoy.
At that Mr.. Billtops takes a brace. He
looks up and smiles 1t is wonderful with
what aIacrity the children respond. and
Mr.. Billtops responds to thai; and gloom
is dispelled once more by the ever CRATE
full light of cheerfuluess. And w!Iel. Mr..
Billtops, as the phrase goes, gets some
thing to eat, he feels himself better sim
He remembers what lie has often said to
himself that no feeling of depression
should ever be accepted as genuine until
it has been subjected to the test of a good
square meal, and AZ hhds that the present
one will not stand that test. In fact. under
the combined influences of Mrs. hilltop $
energetic protest and the good dinner, it is
rapidly disappearns;, and as the dinner
progresses Mr.. Biiltops takes a still broad
er and more cheerful view of things, and
by the time the meal is finished he is
beamiIg with good mature, perfectly salts
lied with the present. and absolutely con-
fident of the future.
