Future of the Bicycle.

1t is agreed by all bicycle manu- fac-
turers that the 1899 models repre-
sents the perfect wheel. Improve
ment seems to- be impossible. Pre-
cisely the safile thing is true of Hos
letters Stomach Bltters. 1t repre-
Sents the limits of science in over
coming disease, and it is impossible
to make better medicine for the
stomach, liver, kidneys and blood.
A few doses of the Bitters will start
weak, nervous and bloodless people
on the road to strength. A regular
course of treatment will bring back
the pink to the cheeks and the
sparkle to the eye. Sleep will come
naturally, and 1T will be refreshing
and healthful. Dyspepsia, indiges-
tion and constipation will be COM
pletely banished, and the blessings
of true health bestowed Never
take a substitute for this perfect
remedy.

but those who were not provided
with the regulation costume did not
allow this fact to interfere in the
least with their pleasure. An old
pair of trousers, in fact any old
thing that would answer the pur-
pose, was brought into service, and
it is safe to say no greater variety
of bathing suits was ever seen than
those worn by the boys of East
Worcester in their wadihg pool.
Some of the boys who could not
procure q costume CHANGED the pos
sibility of future chastisement and
waded boldly in, wearing their
every day apparel. These last
rolled UP their trousers at first and
advanced with some degree Of eau
ton, in hopes of keeping their
neither garments from getting wet,
but within few moments they
were splashed by their comrades or
ducked beneath the surface, as the
case might be, and all care for their
clothes was cast to the four winds
and the youngsters went in for the
sport of the thing.
During the opening hours, a large
crowd of older ones were attracted
to the scene, many of whom doubt
less wished they might go back a
few years and join the merry throng
without disturbing their dignity.
People passing on the cars were
drawn by the unusual sight, and got
OFF the cars to get q nearer view Of
the unusual scene.
Sunday the same thing was re-
peated. The holder ones who were
not afraid of getting wet, enjoyed
the luxury of a first-class shower
bath under the spray Of the foun-
tain, while others who could SWIM
struck out boldly, showing off their
superior ability to their envious
associates"
The completion Of the wall to pro
tect the embankmsnt and shore from
from the action of the water and ic
at the lake is very gratifying to
those charged with the responsible
ity of the work.
The entire length of the water from
S $3.50 feet, all of which has been pro
tected by a revetment wall eight fee
in width, laid with a rise of four fee
in six. The second wall, which is per
pendicular, is from three to five fee
high, and laid far enough back fror
the upper edge of the lower wall to al
low a foot walk three feet in widt
the entire length of the water front o
the park. This work has been in pro
gress four years, and could only b
pursued during the summer months
and then only when the low water con
dition of the lake would permit.
All the stone used for this wall cam
from the Lake Park grounds.
