To Bicyclists.

AS the time has about arrived for
cycling, we give below few hints
from about the highest authority
that can be had:
"Don't ride with your nose down
over the handle bar. The beauties
of nature are out of line with your
vision; the green grass, wild flowers,
the old spreading shade trees; the
half hidden brook and the grazing
flocks are unheeded and you see but
a dusty track and your trip is a bare
record of miles.
The proper position is an upright
one; push nearly straight downward
on the pedals, not back, as one must
do who leans forward"
We should like to add another reas
on for sitting erect. One who leans
down over the handle bars, presents
a most .ludicrous and ungainly ap-
pearance, and more nearly represents
baboon than human being An
other good suggestion we quote, is to
ride with the elbows slightly bent,
thus avoiding the jar to arms, neck
and head. In short, sit in the most
comfortable and natural position, and
you can scarcely help riding with al
least some degree of grace and ease.

Some Plain Facts.

Grave errors, injustice, wrongs Of
greater or less degree, arise from lack
of knowledge of the truth, and more
frequently from deception.
The most infamous case on record
of deception and injustice is the at
tempt to demonetize silver as money
of final redemption in the United
States.
There is no learned judge, skilled
lawyer, or court of justice that is
capable of reconciling the effort with
the constitutional laws that govern
the issue of money in this country.
The people have been deceived,
officials in power, chosen to admins
ter justice under the laws, have
ignored their sworn duty, and given
aid to the scheme that has paralyzed
industry, reduced property values
one-half, and beggared millions.
There is no authority Of law, either
specific or by inference, by which
gold alone is made the only money
with which to discharge debts, either
public or private. The effort to
make it 50 is unconstitutional and a
national calamity.
Plain and ample information, facts
and truth, concerning this almost sue
cessful scheme to corner the wealth
Of the people, is now being printed
in the Cincinnati Enquirer, a news
paper which the combined power Of
money has failed to muzzle or buy.
