How to Ride M HllI.

Mere brute strength is not required
to climb hills. There is Il knack in it,
and that knack consists in getting the
right position of saddle and handles,
and then exerting even and steady
pressure on the pedals. Stamping or
Jumping on the pedals only means loss
Of power and useless straining of the
machine. The idea is to bring the cen
ter OF gravity over the falling pedal,
and to make the fullest use of ankle
action. The pedal must be pulled round
the dead center at the bottom. pushed
over 1t at the top. and the downward
thrust backed by the whole strength
of thigh and body. Sit erect in the sad
die and grip the handles firmly. and
on no account think to climb hill by
the up and down piston stroke used by
come riders.

in THE RIFLE PITS
spenissds' Fssgs of Truce Amused the
Men In the Trenchea

epeniasds' Ffsgs of Truce Amused the
Men In the Trsnches.
The days that followed July Sd were
nlied with innumerable visits to the
spanish lines under flags of truce,
writes Richard Harding Davis In
Scribner's. To the men in the pits,
VINO knew nothing Of the exigencies
OF diplomacy, these virgin flags were
as offensive as those of red are to the
bull. The men had placed their own
hags along the entire line of trenches,
and though they afforded the efIemy 1
perfect target, and fixed our position
as clearly as buoys mark out race
course, the men wanted the flags there
and felt better at seeing them there,
and SO there they remained. The
trenches formed n horseshoe curve
nve miles In length. and the entire
line was defiantly decorated with our
hags. When they fiuttered in the
wind Mt full length and the sun kissed
their colors they made one of the
most inspiring and beautiful pictures
OF the war. The men would crouch
for hours in the pits, with these flags
rustling above them, and felt well re-
paid for their service; but when they
saw crawling across the valley below
the long white flag of truce their
watchfulness seemed wasted, their
vigilance became farce, and they
Knocked and scoffed at the white flag
bitterly. These flags were sent in SO
frequently that the men compared
them TO the different war extras Of n
daily paper. and would ask, HAS that
10 o'clock edition gone in yet?" and,
"Is this the base ball edition coming
out now. or is it an extry?''
One of the regulars said to me, in
great perplexity: II can't make out
this fiag-of-truce gag. 1t reminds me
Of two kids in street fight stopping
after every punch to ask the other
fellow If he's had enough. Why don't
we keep at 1t until somebody gets
hurted?"
