A Little knowledge
Is a Dangerous Thing.

A person unacquainted with Bicycle
construction attempting to dismantle
wheel or effect a home repair will
often do more dameage in five min
utes than a skilled mechanic can re-
pair in day. The mechanism of most
Bicycles is very intricate, with left
hand lock-nuts and very fine threads,
which will slip if the least bit over
strained.
Many of the parts require special
wrenches to turn them, of which we
have a large assortment, together with
the other tools used in Bicycle con
struction, and a skilled mechanic to
do the work.
We make specially of repairing
Bicycles. No mater how badly usei
up they are we can put them on their
wheels again. Our work we guaran-
tee. Our charges are moderate. We

MORNING.
The east is afre,

The east is afire,
And higher and higher
Aspire the rose tints that herald the sun.
The breeze is a-sleeping,
And tweeting and cbeeping
The peeping birds, rollicking every one,
On bending twigs staying
And playing and swaying
And spraying their wings with the down shak
en- dew,
In chorus are singing
And swinging and flinging
Their ringing notes clear to the uppermost
blue,
Each blossum swung censor
To the sense a dispenser
OF denser and richer and sweeter perfume
Than breathes DER Eurotas
From Notus spiced throat
The lotus of Already bursts into bloom.
Earths fairest of hours,
Fresh showers, sweet flowers,
Are ours who serve i'll the court of Queen May
All, then is the season
When reason is treason

BENJAMIN FRANKLIN.

Some of the Things Which the Great
American Philosopher Accomplished.
Lord Jeffrey wrote of the American in.
ventor and philosopher, "He never lost
sight of common sense" Philip G. HUI
bert, .Jr in sketch of Franklin in his re-
cent book, Inventors, says, Nothing
in nature failed to interest him., and a
catalogue of his achievements, showing
his activity and resource, is conclusive
proof of the truth of both statements.
Franklin inspired and established the
Junto, the pleasantest and most useful
American club of which we have knowl-
edge.
He founded the Philadelphia library
parent of 1000 libraries, which marked
the beginning of an intellectual move
ment of endless good to the whole country.
He first turned to great account the en-
CINE of advertising, indispensable in all
modern business
He published "Poor Richard, record
of homely wisdom, in such shape that hun
dreds of thousands of readers were made
better and stronger by it.
He created the postoffice system of
America and was the first champion of q
reformed spelling.
He invented the franklin stove, which
economical fuel, and he suggested valua
BILE improvements in ventilation and the
building of chimneys.
He robbed thunder Of its terrors and
lightning of some of its power to destroy.
He founded the American Philosophical
society, the first organization in America
of the friends of science.
He suggested the use of mineral ma
nures, introduced the basket willow, pro
NOTED the early culture of silk and point
ed out the advantages of white clothing il
summer.
He measured tho temperature of thu
gulf stream and discovered that northeast
storms may begin in the southwest.
He pointed out the advantage of build
ing ships in water tight compartments
taking the hint from the Chinese, and frs,
urged the use of oil as Il means of quietine
dangerous seas.
Besides these great achievements, nc
complished largely as recreation from hi
life work us economist and statesman Ben
jamin Franklin helped the whole race o
inventors by "a remark that has been d
incalculable value and comfort to theorist
and dreamers the world over. When som,

Public opinion is the highest COM

STORY OF A HUSTLER.
A Fine For Contempt Gave Machen
a Trip to Europe.
From the Atlanta Ga journal.

From the Atlanta (Ga.) Journal
Mr.. E. c. Machen. the magic railroad
builder and all-round genius, is selling
light. With half a chance he would sell
sunlight, and he claims to have a good
substitute. H. 1. Kimball used to say
that with 100000 to start on, he would
sell bonds on railroad to the moon.
Without $4,000 Mr.. Machen actually
built railroad to Macon. The road was
100 Eailes long and cost about a million
dollars.
A good story Is told Of Machen in con-
nection with that road. He said he had
to fight 300 suits and forty-seven injunc-
tions before he got the road through.
They had him up before court in New
York, and one of the sharpest-tongued
lawyers in that city was roasting him for
building a railroad without money. After
they had proved that he started the en-
terprise with capital of $50 and a crate
of bacon, the lawyer summed up the case
in scathing language. There sat Machen,
weak, nervous and angry. He had gotten
out of bed to answer the summons of the
court. The subpoena was served on him
while he was sick.
Look at him, your honor" said the
lawyer. ANY man who would start TO
build a railroad with $50 has cheek enough
to turn a rat-tail ile!'
Machen sprang to his feet white with
rage.
May it please the court" said he, "any
d-n fool can build railroad If you give
him plenty of money"
OF course he was fined. The court, to
preserve its dignity, ordered the clerk to
collect $1CO.
Machen by this time was as reckless as
a tiger at bay.
III the court please" said he, "they
have proved me a pauper here. If your
honor will give me a few hours / will 90
on the Bowery and get the hundred dol
lars. l know man with a sign of three
balls, and maybe l can get the money"
The Judge, who was a good fellow and
thoroughly enjoyed Machen's speech, gra-
ciously gave him time TO raise the money.
The newspapers were there, and every
one of them had a story about Machen.
THE next morning" said he, speaking
of the occurrence, II got fifty checks 10
pay that fine. They came from men who
did not know me personally, and on top
of the pile was one from James Gordon
Bennett
IL went into court and made an elaborate
apology 90 the judge. Here are fifty
checks your honor said 1, take your
choice
Much TO my surprise, he RENTED the
fine. When l went round to return the
checks to the gentlemen, not a man OF
them would take his money back. With
that money went TO Europe"
This happened ten years ago. Mr..
Machen Is once more on his feet. He had
some wonderful experiences during the
panic, but he came out OF Il as fresh as a
lark

red and dark blue tone was repeated
again and again. The revers and collar
were dark green.
Under the little laced coat was worn a
blouse of Scotch tartan silk repeating the
blue and red and showing also a touch Of
green. A white leather belt with a big
medallion was clasped around the slender
waist.
