The green leaf is the best conductor
Of electricity-thst most powerful and

tion of organic life every pointed leaf
and blade of grass has been silently
disarming the clouds of their destruc.

leaves, sharpened by natures exquisite

as efectual as the metallic points of

ceive more attention than formerly.
for many have learned from bitter ex-
perience that low prices, good quality
and simplicity must be combined to
insure successes in bicycle construc-
ton. Fixity of pattern has been put
forth as an explanation by some for
the present chaotic condition of the
cycle trade. And it is true that in the
present type of bicycles manufacturers
think they have attained that point
when departures will be in the nature
of retrogression rather than improve
ment.
A local maker has perfected an ar
rangement of a hollow axle containing
an absorbent wick, doing away with
the necessity of frequent oiling of the
bearings; has devised an eccentric
chain adjustment which regulates the
chains tension without disturbing the
alignment of the rear wheel; has pro-
vided dust-proof buttonholes in the
hubs, which permit of spokes being

rounder ef the BED cros. soeisty.,

The name OF the man who was tho
actual cause Of the foundation Of the
Red Cross Society, which has done 40
much to mitigate the horrors OF war,
is little known to the present genera
ton. However, he is still alive, and.
unfortunately, it is said, in bad
circumstances. His namesis Dunant,
and he was born in Geneva in 1925
A man of means, he appears to have
devoted large portion OF his wealth
to works of charity in connection with
his native city. The admirable labors
of Florence Nightingale, which at
tracted the attention Of all Europe,
made a strong impression on n.
Dunant, which was further increased
by his own participation in the war OF \
Napoleon III. against the Austrians
in 1859. There he Witnessed war IN
all its horrors, and it resulted In his
publishing book on the subject
which at the time attracted much at
tention. In 1868 he started on pill
erimage, at his own expense, 70
various countries, to stir up men into
influencing the various governments
into a conference which should have
for its object the formation OF some
means for the mitigation OF the hor-
rors of war. The result was the
historic conference in 1864 at Geneva,
the outcome of which was the conven-
ton which has made modern warfare
comparatively humane.-New York

Growth Of Children.

The average child, in its fourth
year, should be three feet high and
weigh more than twenty-eight pounds;
in the sixth year, three and q half
feet high, and weigh forty-two; in the
eighth year, four feet in height and
ffty-six pounds in weight; at twelve
years, five feet in height and seventy
pounds in weight is fair average.
Growth is very irregular in children
and young people generally; perhaps
two inches may be gained in two
months, and for the next ten montha
not over an inch, even up to the age'
of ton or twelve yesrs.-The Ledger.

transmission will resolve itself in the
minds of many riders, whose analysis
OF the subject does not comprehend its
strictly mechanical phase, into study
of internal gearing solely mitigation
of the nuisance of mud clogged and
stiffened chains, reform which gear
cases alone could accomplish without
sacrificing the many points of superb
ority which the chain possesses over
combination of bevel gears. Unless
some unexpected discoveries are made
which will greatly improve the best of
present chainless patterns, q chain
driven machine will be preferred as
possessing fewer disadvantages, espec-
tally as the addition of q gear case
will be an effeotual remedy for one of
the principal drawbacks which bevel
gears are intended to overcome.
There are several new designs of
handle bars on the market. One in
particular has device which will sb-
sorb the vibration before it enters the
bar. The bar is rigid in steering and
is also rigid in climbing a hill, as the
pull tends to strengthen the spring by
which it is fastened to, the head

The Locust Bean Tree.

-" JLaccount of the high price of for
age for horses in South Africa, and
also of the small supply, an enquiry
is being made as to whether the locust
bean tree cannot be acclimatized in
Cape Colony. The carob or locust
bean bears long pod, which makes
excellent food for horses, and is at the
same time more portable than forage,
and it is for these qualities that it is
desired to introduce it. The carob is
a tree much resembling the apple tree
and fourishes in the countries around
the Mediterranean. The pods have
been imported into England for horses.
The Arabs and Moors use the sweet
pulp for food very largely. The locust
tree of America is quite distinct from
this.

new feature in bicycles for next
year. Chain wheels are too popular,
and too many of them are in practical
use to be cast aside in an instant for
the new high-priced affair. A year or
two ago most of the cycling public was
made up of people who could afford to
pay the steep prices demanded by the
manufacturers for their products.
Since then times have changed, and
keen competition, has become rife,
which has brought the cost of bicycles
down to level that makes it possible
for almost anybody to buy them. And
with increased numbers there is an in
creased demand for cheaper price and
better quality.
Outside of the chainless variety, BIZ
cycles, in all probability, will be

Weight Soldiers May Carry.

It is found as result of some inter.
esting experiments recently carried out
by the German War Office, that for an
ordinary man weight not exceeding
forty-eight pounds could be carried
for twenty-five miles, if the tempera-
ture does not exceed sixty degrees,
without any injurious effects, even
when continued for number of days.
If, however, the temperature is ten de-
grees higher, the same load has tenn
porary effect on the organisms. A
weight of sixty pounds is the maxi
mum weight which an ordinary soldier
could carry twenty-five miles day on
several consecutive days.

Interest in the output of bicycles for
1898 does not begin and end with the
new bevel gear that is attracting 30
much attention just at present. The
new chainless comes as an experiment
seeking popular favor, and the num-
ber that will be in use at the close of
next season will be very small when
compared to the number of chain
wheels, although with reduction in
price and more perfected details the
bevel gear is undoubtedly the coming
wheel.
The bevel gear will not be the only

Couldn't Talk to Save His Beard.

Several days ago well-known
member Of the Allegheny county bar,
who is also prominent in Grand Army
and Veteran Legion circles, appeared
at his haunts, shorn of fine gray
beard which had added much to his
dignifed appearance. He had worn
whiskers so long that his acquaint-
ances often wondered what he would
look like without them. When he re-
turned from a trip to Canada minus
his beard everybody had to look twice
to see if he really was the colonel.
Some of his friends told him he was
not 80 handsome, and became in
terested enough to ask why he had
shaved off his hirsute appendage.
He mas explained, probably dozens Of
times, that it was all an accident. He
says that while he was in Canada he
went to French barber shop to have
his mustache and beard trimmed q
little. He could not speak French,
and talked to the tonsorial artist by
signs. When he thought he had made
known to the Frenchman what he
wanted he leaned back in his chair
and the barber started to work. The
first clip took large bunch ofwhiskers
from the left cheek, and before the
colonel could explain, two or three
more clips were taken, and nearly half
of his beard was gone. He looked in
the mirror and was mad, but he could
not speak French, and, therefore, he
had to let the barber complete the
job.-.Pittsburg Chronicle.

be inserted out of line with the frame.
And these are but few of the good
things that the manufacturers have in
store for the riding public next year.
There are to be gear cases galore. Up
to this time few makers in this coun-
try have made any attempt to fit gear
cases to their bicycles, chiefly because
there has not been very large demand
for them. ....

CHAPTER XIX.
RHoDA EXPERIENCES A CHANGE OF FEEL.

ING.
1t seemed to be the general opinion
that since Dicks warning of the fate
in store for him and all other horse
thieves, if caught, horse-stealing was
at an end in Brownsville.
Consequently, feeling of compare
tive security took possession of the
settlers. Most of them believed that
Dick had belonged to gang, if he
had not been the leader of it, and that
his narrow escape from the fate meted
out to horse-thieves had frightened
him out of the country.
That it was well with him yet, Nan
