1t is claimed that the bicycle Is
running the horse business. Well,
that may be so. No doubt the
smooth gliding noiseless machine
renders the need of the horse less
urgent, but while it initiates
against the horse it can be truth
fully said that the wheel develops
some very fine specimens of calves.
