WHEELING UP A HILL.
Hints TO Women Bicyclists From An Augusta
Physician.

1T cannot be too often impressed
upon women that there is right and
wrong way of hill-clmbing on a BIZ
cycle says an Augusta physician,
and that the difference between the
two ways often means the capacity or
incapacity to ride up hill at all. 1t is
of little use to trust to the legs alone.
To lean forward and drive down foot
after foot, with labored swayings Of
the body from side to side. is a pro-
ceeding useless as it is ugly.
The best position for hill-climbing is
good upright seat; instead of push
ing forward, pull backward from the
handle bars. and above ALL try to keep
the pedals moving evenly. 1t is a
mistake to suppose that when the
pedal has been driven down, all that is
possible has been done. The instep
should then be thrust forward, and the
toes kept pressed to the pedal. so as to
pull it up. \ little practice will enable

whole circuit of the pedals revolution.
and the result will be a uniform driv-
ing power instead of a succession Of
jerks.
The pull upon the handle bars is the
necessary counteraction to the thrust
of the leg. If the body is thrown for
ward also, half the strength is wasted
in preserving equilibrium.
by sitting we'll back a rider is able
to use all the strength Of the body. as
Well as the strength of leg. for the
pedaling.
And the rushing Of hills is not al
together a wise course. 1t always
sounds an easier method of getting
over the difficulty. but. as a matter of
fact. it generally ends in a far more
violent effort, followed by far more
breathlessness. than steady straight
| riding tactics. All of which might
really be replaced by the excellent ad

Popularity from Quality.

One of the best proofs of quality is
long continued popularity. For years
the Watt & Bond Blackstone cigar has
been a favorite everywhere. The con-
sumner appreciates that he can trust
this brand at all times. and the result
is a large increase Of sales yearly. The
manufacturers have the largest build
ing in New England for the making Of
this favorite and no other Decent
cigar can approach their yearly sales
within several millions.
