Invincible, peerless, wonderful is Mi

titor is time, and when he crosses the
tape in his finishing sprint he leaves
records as well as opponents behind
him.
James Michael, the most wonderful
bicyclist of the world, recommends all
wheelmen to take Paine's celery COM
pound.
Many a young person and hundreds
of older people who have determined
to take up bicycling as a health giving
exercise find themselves really lacking
the proper snap" or stamina to begin
on. Their bodily condition prevents
so spirited exercise. Many who are
really sick, who have suffered from de-
bilty or wasting diseases for a long
time until they had begun to think
their troubles had become chronic. as
nothing gave them relief, would turn
to bicycling for relief, but they find
that this splendid exercise, like any
other, requires strength to undertake.
The blood is out of order, the nerves
are deranged and natures food for
both is needed.
All such persons will find to their i'm
mense joy that Paine's celery COM
pound will make them well.
Michael has made cycle riding a care

excellent advice, not only to racing
men, but to wheelmen and people in
general. In reference to his own meth

The face must be patiently kneaded
over every portion, particularly the
sides nearest the ears, often neglected

possible to gain a correct idea of what

To begin again, the face is washed

ment and have learned the possibilities
of massage and skin foods.
SOMETHING ABOUT FACIAL MAS
SAGE.
This treatment will not work a
miracle but it viii produce almost
incredible results There Is some
cost, to be sure, but no great blessing
is gained without a price. The treat
ment is however not very expensive
and the method is soon learned. After
that it is possible for one to manipu-
late the face for ones self. Like
manicuring the right hand it is
not so perfectly done as by profess
sional but it secures excellent results.
There must be two requisites-time and
patience. Too many of us have neither
and must go with wrinkled puckered
up Visages, the result of our absurd
grimaces when in conversation; must
be, content with pasty compilations,
