cigar. 1t is ten feet in length, but in
consequence of the material of which
it is built it is very light.
Regular bicycle machinery is mount
ed upon the cylindrically-shaped hull.
\ large sprocket wheel, gear case
for the chain and simple driving
mechanism all correspond closely with
the everyday bicycle. The pedals turn
the sprocliet wheel, which in turn, so to
speak, causes the aluminium hull be-
meath to revolve. 1t is pretty hard to
get started, but once under way scorch-
ing is easily possible.

STORM AND SUNSHINE.

The waves dashed up against the shore,
The wind beat out again;
The sea fled wildly on before.
And sobbed and moaned with pain.
The heavy clouds hung low and dark.
The rain swept on below
And blotted out a storm-tossed bark
Sad type OF human woe.
But that was yesterday, my dear.
4 To-day the sun shines bright
NAnd all that seemed so wild and drear
u Has vanished in the night.
The little waves run up the shore.
The sea forgets its pain;
The whole wide world grows glad once
more,
And courage lives again.
Take cheer, sad heart, It's dark to-day,
But let us not repine
These gloomy clouds will fly away,
To-morrows sun Will shine.

shall he reap.
| So PauPs seed was sown, and it's
| fruitage We know to-day So much
for infiuence-that which we all pos
sess, no matter how meanly we think
of ourselves. PauFs name graces the
noblest temple of England, and to-day
l read of the steamer "St. Paul. bring
ing our ambassador home from Eng
land. bearing to us the log-b book of the
| Puritan fathers who escaped injustice
and planted themselves upon Ply
| mouth rock for religions sake, the re-
! ligion of Paul. Temporarily, as we'll as
in religion, this orator from Mars Hill
so long ago lives in our religion and our
everyday life, and towns and cities,
rivers and mountains, temples and ter
ritories bear his name
| So much for the influence of a right
eous man upon men and civilization.
There is a sacredness about our bodies.
| One young man lay in death before the
preacher but the other day, but in
death as he viewed the body, he felt the
awe attaching to that wonderful struc-
! ture that body the Greeks so highly
trained and so greatly respected. Care
for your bodies then, train them to per-
lection, glory in their beauty and
strength but with righteousness, tenn
perance and wisdom. Train your souls
and minds also and so live and act and

leave behind you lives worthy to be
remembered and that shall exert never

eousness and uprightness, for mercy
and loving kindness. l give you the
words of one of the most famous of
American orators, who fell at his post
before thousands of his admiring fell
! low citizens: Young men,, keep your
records Clean.
The foregoing is but an outline of the
exceedingly apt and deeply interesting
discourse of last evening, enriched by
anecdote and quotation and delivered
with that kindly fervor and benevolent
gentleness so characteristic of Mr.. Her
rick-the first sermon in California to
| Wheelmen.
AT the conclusion of the services the
wheelmen went forward and each
grasped the hand of the preacher in
hearty grip, and he in turn escorted
them into the children's room. where
is kept the Oak Park Free Library,
gathered by Mr.. Herrick and his peo-
pie, and open to all, irrespective of
creed He pointed with pride, by the
way, to two hundred volumes that had
just been presented to the library by
| one of the leading and most enthusiast
tic wheelmen of the Capital City Club,
| Frank Miller After short time of
social converse, and with many God
| bless you" the club members mounted
! their wheels and rode away, the pro-
cession being led by ladies awheel, from
the first wheelmen's service on the Pa

CUT THE WEEDS.
Those Who Neglect Them Are Liable
to be Arrested.

There is a city ordinance that makes
it a misdemeanor for any person TO
allow the sidewalks in front of his
premises to become overgrown With
weeds, but there are many who pay no
heed to it until they are compelled to
obey it.
Chief of Police Drew has issued in
structions to the officers to notify all
persons in their respective districts to
cut down the weeds and trim off any
tree branches that may hang too low
over the sidewalks

Buying a Bicycle.

The buying OF a bicycle is a matter
of serious importance. All your pleas
ure in cycling depends on your wise
choice. The fact that some bicycles
can be bought for less than list price
any others for anything down and
something less per week, nothing added
for interest, places all such wheels on
the shady list in the eyes of the ex-
perienced cyclist and makes the selling
of wheels by legitimate dealers easy.
Kimball & Epson, legitimate dealers,
sell good bicycles at fixed prices.
