A chaIniess Defect.

One of the latest charges brought
against the chainless bicycle is that 1t
numbs the feet Only bevel gear wheels
are said TO produce the curious result
noted, which is ascribed to the mesh
ing OF The gears. This gives rise to a
steady vibration that is communicated
through the crank hangers to the ped
ais, and thence to the feet. This in
cessant pulsation due to the striking
of the teeth of the gears, is said to
have the effect of massage. In time
il results in numbness, just as a series
of blows will numb the part of the
body where they fall. OF course, the
vibrations are so light that their effect
is only appreciated after a long ride.
To demonstrate the strength of the vi
bration. place the ear to any part Of
the frame and spin the rear wheel. The
'chuckle" of the gears is plainly evil
dent. Somewhat similar is the sensa-
ton impaired to the hands by the vi
bration of steel handlebars, to over
come which wooden handlebars We're
invented.

But what must be remembered, in fair
ness and emphasized, is what the
church gains from the bicycle. AS an
annihilator OF all distances II is lessen

As an improver Of roads It is lettering

made frequent demands upon their
father to come out and drag them up

a better scheme than that; 1t flashed

The claim Is urged that the prosper

not the result of a protective tariff, and
so far as the claim relates to the price
of wheat, it is true. but right there the
claim ceases to have any force. Wool
men, cattle raisers and business men
generally know that since the enact
ment of the Dingley tariff law there has
been a steady and sure return to pros
perity, money has come out of its hiding
places and the volume Of business has
increased many times. The knowledge
of these things is general all owe the
