The changes forever recurring In cycles and
their appurtenances noticeable each
cessive season as the makers put on exhibition
their new models. This year the variety is to
be found IN tires more than In wheels. promI-
nent tire manufacturer has said: "A pneumatic
tire is such imperfect article at the very
best. subject to so much strain, and, although
the most delieate part OF the equipment Of
wheel must have the hardest use and come In
contact with the toughest roads when sustain
ing the weight Of the wheel and rider, that the
tire enjoying the greatest popularity one sea
son must OF necessity be less popular next sea-
son on account OF having the greatest percent
age OF riders and necessarily causing a greater
amount Of trouble than tires less ridden. Many
riders do not know what make OF tire they are
riding until they have some trouble with II. II
a tire never gives trouble II simply does it's
duty and gets 10 credit"
