Disposition of old wbeeI..

what becomes of old bicycles?" is
question that has been answered in a va
riety of ways. Perhaps the correct answer
is that given recently in Cycling Life,
which declares they are made into new
machines and sold to persons who cannot
afford to give more than 500 or $25 for
wheel. The process by which this is ac-
complished includes raising the frame, en-
ameling it, bending the handle bars, plating
them, new saddle, new tires blacking the
chain and gears and nickel plating the
cranks, seat posts and fork ends. Besides
broken spokes are replaced with new, set
screws attended to and parts cleaned. Five
or even three years ago this could not have
been done for half what it costs for a $100
machine, and would not have paid Ac-
counts Of stock and labor in making these
alterations tell d different story and show
that it does pay, and pay well, to rejuve-
done methodically and economically, and
that modern appliances are used. The work
should be done with not less than six
wheels at one time They may be valued at
less than $6 each. The tires are worn out
completely, the nickel parts are scratched
and rusty, spokes bent, iron rims broken
and twisted bars misshapen, saddle seat
ripped or gone altogether, the chain
gummed and wheels hard to turn. But the
tubing in the frame is good and strong. the
bearings all right If cleaned, oiled and
trued, the frame joints firm, and much
else is seryiCeable for years to come. The
cost of making the bicycles over need not
exceed 81 each, and this leaves a. margin
of 81 when the altered wheel is sold for $40

CHILDREN AT CHRISTMAS.
n Day Distinctly Belonging 10
Children.

IF there is one day in the year
which rightly belongs to the young
it is Christmas Day, writes Edward
w. Box in the Christmas Ladies
Home Journal, 1t should be given
over to them, therefore, without
stint or reservation. And | think
sometimes that parents do not al
ways understand this. It is right
and aIl,cSScntial that restrictions
upon the amusemcnts of the Young
should prevail in every home. But
Christmas Day is the one day when
these barriers ought to be lifted and
the young given free play No
wholesome liberty or indulgence
should be withheld from boy or
girl on that day What of it, my
dear friend, if such liberties do mean
a tear here, or IL broken chair there?
Suppose the boy is particularly
NOISY on Christmas. What of it?
Tell me, if you can, better sign Of
strong, young health than the noise
from boys lungs? Suppose ho
does throw himself, or even juAnP or
stand, on your best lounge. and soil
or rhmplc your pet tidy! Pass over
it, don { notice it, but let the boy
have his Christmas Day. And if the
little girl does linsist upon putting
her sticky fingers on your dress
what Of it? Let her romp and tear
all over the house, Give her the Joy
of feeling that for one day the house
is hers in every nook and corner Of
it. Let her put her smutchy little
hands on the white paint of door or
wall. | know IA home, my dear wo
man, where the marks of four little
smutchy fingers may be seen any
day on the white paint OF IA door,and
they are treasured above the cost
Iiest ornaments in that house.
Nothing could induce the mother of
that home to wipe off those finger
marks, and gayly would her heart
sing if the little fingers that put
them there could make others all
over the doors and windows Of that
house. = Let each one Of us
who can, give freedom and zcst to
the dearest treasures Of the Christ
mastide: the young barbarians OF
our homes God bless them, say.
May each child in this land OF ours
have a Christmas Day this year
fashioned after its own heart.
