Christmas Day.

Christmas is the most univer- |
sally observed of all holidays. II
has been from the earliest times
the central figure of religious festal
days. 1t is becoming less Eek
clusivcly q religious day and more
q popular feast day as civilization
progresses. In fact 1t Is one of
many celebrations OF the dark ages
that grows in general favor as the
world progresses. I. was at one
time sectarian; it is now general
among all Christian peoples.
The object Of its observance is
not idealized as in the past. The
cold facts of history and the logic
Of the age have fairly separated
the nativity of the Savior from the
celebration of the asth day OF
December. No system Of reckon
ing OF dates of history inaugurated
the custom Of celebrating the birth
Of Christ in mid.winter when the
Bible account shows the Savior to
have been born In the summer,
bat the popular holiday Of the
ancients was at the winter solstice.
IN the minds OF ancient philoso-
piers the god Of nature was born
at the time the sun started from its
far southern annual journey to re-
turn to warm the earth to life
again. This realistic mental I'm
preston was everywhere FREEDOM
ineut In the days of clouded rea-
son. and facts Of history and
science were subordinated to the
prejudice Of the times. Thus
Christmas became the central
figure among score Of holidays
which ushered out the old year
and In the new.
In later epoch OF progress the
observance Of Christmas was op
posed by the prosecutors of the
Christians. Whole assemblies
were locked in their churches and
ancinerated BY authority of mon
srchs while celebrating Christmas
Then this holiday became sec.
tartan. The observance of Christ.
mas was in turn enforced by roya'
decree as were many other Saint:
days and holidays, The evolu

The boy about whom this strange, true
story is told wasted away till he seemed
poth;ns but skin and bones. Then his
health turned and he became fat and hearty.
The first stage is familiar to many pa
rents. The second is Of deep interest to all
parents or friends Of ailing little ones.
Fathers and mothers, who long to have
their children healthy and happy cannot
fail to sympathize and rejoice with MIR.
and Mrs John F. Williams.
Their comfortable home, short distance
from Damon, Ill, is happy now because
Of the wonderful events that are told in
words eloquent with simple truth and
gratitude, by t mother Of the boy.
"Our Josie was never strong" said Mrs.
Williams. "From his birth he was weak
and Puny.
years old, he had an attack OF lung fever.
DR.. N. A. Jo, IS cured this fever, but the
child did not cover strength.
"He began aiding away Beneath Our eyes.
"He had no appetite, vomited great
deal, eoughed continually, his limbs be-
came withered.
ale became painfully weak and ema-
ciated. We waited for his death.
AT this time boarder named Asa Rob-
inson suggested that DR.. Williams Pink
Pills for Pale People would dothe child good.
"They had cured MIR. Robinson OF
rheumatism and he Believed in them.

but should they from any cause be ex-
posed the action of the pin teeth is such
that they are self-cleaning, forcing mud
and dirt out from between the teeth.
One of the chief objections urged
against chainless wheels by mechanics
is that should the rear frame become
twisted or out of line, there would be a
consequent binding of the mating gears
The Monarch chainless is entirely free
from this objection inasmuch that the
junction of the pinions and gears form
a type of the ball and socket joint,
thereby permitting free running under
the conditions usually met with in
bicycle riding. A particular advantage
which this gear has, and which gives it
the highest efficiency, is the direct lift
as against the end thrust which is COM
mon to all bevel gearing This end
thrust is prominent factor in friction
and frame strain.
Another point to be counted in favor
of the Monarch gear is, that it is not of
delicate construction although COM
paratively light in weight.
AS stated by Grant, ,thewell lknownau-
thority on gears, "Thepin gearis particu-
larly valuable when the pins are made in
the form of rollers forthen the minimum
of friction is reached" The friction
between the tooth and pin, otherwise a
sliding friction at line bearing is. with
a roller pin, a rolling friction. When
properly made, there is no form of tooth
that is superior to the roller pin
tooth.
While the Monarch company is war
ranted from the study of experts in
placing its chainless machine on the
market as the best type of that class,
its faith in the chain wheel is in no way
diminished. 1t will continue to keep
them in the forward ranks of that type
of bicycle which is yet the choice of the
majority Of the people. In line with
the general policy of the Monarch COM
pany. the price of it's chainless will be
$4,000, which will give complete line,
including chain machines, ranging from
this price to $4,000.

"My husband bought three boxss q The
pills. We began giving Josie one-thifd of
pill three times day.
In three days the child was brighter
His appetite was better. He began to show
interest in toys and was less frctful.
ave increased the dose, giving him
half pill at time. He gained every day
in weight and appetite.
AT the end Of this treatment, after TAX
ing three boxes, he was new boy.
"He was happy, hearty, enjoying lite
with his little companions.
81 have no doubt that DR.. Williams
Pink Pills for Pale People saved him from
an early grave"
Mrs. Williams made affidavit to the
truth Of her statement before David Crisp,
Notary Public.
DR.. A. A. McCabe examined the child
and made oath before Notary Mort Brooks,
that he is now physically sound and well.
The evidence is completed by DR.. N.
A. Jones, who made affidavit before No
tary George Rupp, that the child had bsen
in the condition described by Mrs. Will
1ianns, as the result of catarrhal pneumonia.
The action Of DR.. WilliamS Pink Pills
for Pale People on the blood and nervous
system, in eliminating poisons and furnish
ing materials for new tissues, makes them a
sure remedy for wasting diseases and the long
train Of evils arising from disordered BLOOD
and nerves. All druggists sell the pills;
one box for SO cents; SIX boxes Tor $3.50.

In their indiscriminate haste to an
nounce the making of chainless wheels,
some manufacturers have tumbled over
each otherin the endeavor to be in front
TO be i'll front is spasm, to "keep in
front " is sustained energy. To utter IL
truism is one thing, to live up to it is
another.
The spirit of the aphorism of the
Monarch Cycle Manufacturing Com
pany, Ride a Monarch and Keep in
'front.'" is we'll illustrated in its latest
product, The Monarch Chainless. Alive
to the times, the company will pro-
duce chainless bicycle which has been
proven by repeated tests to be superior,
in its class, in every particular.
Two surfaces that will roll on each
other will transmit motion from one to
the other. If the surfaces are compar-
atively smooth, the motion is transmit
ted by friction. But, when the surfaces
are provided with projections, the mo-
ton, although it is unchanged in nature,
is transmitted by direct pressure, and
it is irregular unless the acting surfaces
of the projections are carefully and
exactly shaped to produce an even mo.
tion. 1t is the difficulty which is ex.
perienced to produce these perfect pro-
jections, when bevel gears are used,
which leads the experienced mechanic
away from them. Long experience in
Sewing Machine manufacture has
taught the Monarch Company that
whatever transmission was used, bevel
gears were not to be considered il easy
running was to be thought of. The
result has been driving gear which is
excellent in it's easy running qualities.
The mechanism is simple. The crank
axle and hub gears somewhat resemble
the familiar sprocket wheels, the notice
able difference being the teeth which
are closer together and v shape in cross
section instead of four sided The
shaft connecting the two is provided at
each end with a pinion having roller
pin teeth which run in and out of the
wide angle openings between the gear
teeth. Each set of gears is enclosed
