NOTES OF THE WHEEL

Although Or. Charles John Elllcott
bishop Of Gloucester and Bristol, Eng
land, Is IN his eighty-seyenth year. he il
an enthusiastic wheelman.
Pneumatic shoes FOR cycling are be-
Ing talked Of in England, the idea DO
ing that By their use vibration and
consequent numbness would be much
reduced.
II Is calculated that the products Of
the American cycle manufacturers will
reach 100000 marks this season, and
hat over half Of the wheels will be
. ihipped al over the world to compete
with foreign-made goods.
A woman Of title at Windsor, Eng
land, the other day attempted 10 set

footpath by sending postal order for
i've shillings 70 the policeman who
caught her. For this indiscretion she
was visited with double fine.
An fish cycling journal asserts that
the daughters Of Erin were troubled
last season by the large size OF the ped
ais on the wheels which English manu-
facturcrs sold them, and il is further
alleged that the small feet Of the Irish
ladies are lost In the shoes that are
made 70 fl the feet Of Englishwomen.
The competition Of the sale Of wheels
In England must be very great. One
cycle-making firm advertises 10 give an
insurance policy against death, disable
ment or loss of machine either By theft
or fire, with every machine sold. The
competition has not reached that state
In this country.

THE CHILDREN's CLOTHES.

Moderation In bows and collars would
improve many a little boy-child's ap-
pearance and make him more comforta-
bic. In many cases there is more bow
or collar than boy.
Picturesqueness may be attained
without sacrificing the sweet simplicity
which is childhood's most pleasing
Characteristic. The cut Of the gown
gives this quality, and not the trimming
Of It.
Do not overdress little girls or boys,
especially in brilliant colors. A simple
little gown in crimson or scarlet is not
put Of place, bat frills or founces or
futtering ribbons convert the red gown
into bedizened piece Of fnery.
Convenience and healthfulness should
be the first considerations in children's
dresses, especially for very small chill
dren. Long skirts make very uncom-
Portable little Greenaway girls, and
give that picturesqueness which should
only be seen in dolls or picture books.
