THE OLD DOCTORS.
If They Had Only Possessed Few OF the
Great Modern Remedies.

The old-time country doctor who car
ried his drugs in his saddle-bags, did not
know as much as his professional de-
scendants. He did not know that typhoid
fever is caused by a thousands of germs
present in polluted water, in adulterated
milk and in improper food of other kinds.
But he did know that the weakness,
headache and nausea characteristic of the
disease call for prompt treatment in
creasing to rouse the forces of resistance.
Unhappily the old time doctor did not
possess any valuable germ-hller, while
to-day we have the finest of all known
discoveries for killing germs-Duffy's
Pure Malt Whisky.
This great whisky destroys the mi
crobes of typhoid fever. Mix a little of it
say tablespoonful-in your glass Of
drinking water. and you render the germs
of disease harmless.
Please observe the proprietary stamp
on the bottle The Government says that
Duffys Pure Malt is a medicine. This
surely does not apply to any other
whisky

petition that most of the material used
IN the construction of Canadian bicy-
cles is bought in the United States,

There are any number of ways Of
enjoying a cycling tour. Some men
go away with the fixed determination
to have a lazy time, and they do. They
don't care whether they ride ten miles
a day or a hundred, and they stop
just when they like, and go on again
when they are tired Of loafing. They
make out no hard-and-fast schedule,
but wheel just swheresover their sweet
fancy dictateth. The tour is the re-
alization Of enjoyment. The quiet and
unhurried life builds up anew the
nervous system, and when he returns
home the loiterer is refreshed and in
vigorated, and eager to renew the
great struggle for existence.
More bicycles have been sold in Chi
cago in 1898 than We're sold in 1891
The sales of machines for women indl-
cate that their use is steadily increas-
ing. Tandem sales have been few
largely on account of the high prices
asked for good machines Of this de-
scription. Agents are of the opinion
that a frst-class tandem ought to be
sold to the public for S75. Repair men
and assemblers have cut considerably
into the dealers sales of tandems, and
are building some neat and up-to-date
machines listing from $50 to $50. 1t
has been difficult to. sell high-priced
single machines
The German authorities have just is
sued returns for the imports and ex-
ports of cycles, and parts during the
first half of the current year. During
that period the imports reached a total
of 5SS tons, as against 313 tons during g
the first half of 1897. Although the
imports have thus increased, there has
been more than a corresponding in
crease in the exports, for during the
six months ending June last the ex-
ports reached a total Of 1924 tons, as
compared with 420 tons in the first
six months of 1897.

Too long a reach on bicycle Is
dangerous; too short reach causes
cramp. Carelessness in adjusting
wheels, saddles and handle-bars will
considerably add to the fatigue OF
cycling.
Cycling in the London Fire Brigade
is making bold strides. Commander
Wells set the example, and his lead IS
being enthusiastically followed by his

PRONOUNCES IT A CANARD
PRESIDENT THOMSON DENIES
HIS APPOINTMENT TO LOOK AT
TER ARMY TRANSPORTATION.

President Frank Thomson, of the
Pennsylvania railroad. took occasion
yesterday to deny the report that has
been widely circulated within the past
few days, that he had been appointed
an aid to the secretary Of war to look
after the transportation of the army
in the event of a war with Spain. Mr..
Thomson stated that no such appoint
ment had been made and that, while
the administration at Washington was
ccgnizant of the fact that It could call
upan him freely for any service that he
could render in any emergency that
might arise he did not believe that
there would be occasion for any spe-
cial military organization such as was
necessary during the war Of the rebel
lion, when the reconstruction, opera
ton and management OF railway lines
taken from the Confederates was an
important factor in the prosecution OF
the war.
AS a result of the reports about his
appointment, President Thomson, much
to his annoyance, has been the recip-
lent Of letters and kilograms from all
over the country. Many of these were
of a purely congratulatory character
but others were from persons Offering
their services and requesting positions
under him.
