To Find the bicycle Gear.


An easy method Of ascertaining your
gear is to turn the crank around as
many times as the back wheel is inches
In diameter-that is, 70 times for 49,
inch wheel and 30 times for a 30-inch
wheel-and whilst doing this count
the number of revolutions the back
wheel makes. If the back wheel re-
wolves 20 times to 90 revolutions Of the
crank the gear is 70 inches; If 66h
times, it is 661a inches, and so on. Be-
fore starting to count, it is best to re-
volve the crank till it and the valve come
In convenient positions, say, crank par
allel with the chain stay, and the valve
Opposite the back stays, as it is easier to
reckon the revolutions from some def
pite pni1ts.

THE BICYCLE TRUST.
It II Doubtful II the Public Vvall
Gain Anything from the ForMa.
ton Of This Combination.

Many strange results may follow the
organization of the bicycle trust, which
now appears certain to occur, as over
100 large factories have been included
in the membership. With trust in
control, the conditions of the trade will
be largely reversed. Unrestricted COM
petition has produced a great many va
rieties of machine and steadily reduced
prices, until the price of the best grade
of wheel is about half what it was only
three years ago. The objects of form
ing the trust are to check competition
and to reduce the cost of production.
The time may therefore come soon
when the numberless "malSes" will not
be known and prices will be stationary.
Acompact combination may apportion
territory among the different mem
bers and allow each to keep its distin-
gushing name and peculiarities. 1t
may, on the other hand, make machines
of three different grades and use the
different factories for the production
of parts. Tires, saddles, rims, hubs,
bearings and tubing may be more
cbeaply produced if each factory is en-
ployed on speciality. The assembled
machine may be the trust bicycle of
first, second or third grade.
One thing is certain, that the trust
will produce bicycles more cheaply than
its members do now. Another thing is
probable, that the public will not be
benefited by any reduction of price.
Between the cheapening of cost and
the fixing of selling price, the trust ex-
poets to make its money. Perhaps the
public may gain indirectly in an i'm.
proved quality of machine, but that is
a subject of speculation.-St. Paul Dis
patch.

Not Pleasant to Look At.

If some women who ride wheels could
view themselves as others see them they
would cast off their bicycle raiment
store their wheels and never essay a
mount again. Why woman, other
wise displaying good taste in her dress,
should resemble a nightmare the mo-
ment she dons a wheeling costume, is
one Of those mysteries difficult of solu-
ton. In contrast with the compare
lively few who look neat and natty on
their wheels, they show to poor advan-
tage. Many of them would present a
better appearance if they rode more
gracefully, and as matter of fact half
the members of the fair sex who ride
need q course of instruction and a
proper adjustment of the distance be-
tween their seats and Chicago

penna AMI Curxons.

William Penn, the Quaker, was son
of Sir William Penn, whose great-great-
grandfather was younger son of the
family living at Penn. There is no near
er connection with the main line. The
wife of Sir Nathaniel Curzon, daughter
and ultimate heiress of Will Penn,
of Penn, must have been daughter Of
the William, son of John. The latter
died in 1641. AS Sir Nathaniel was sher-
if of Denbigh in 1900, the dates would
tally. The estate of Penn went to Lord
Scarsdale, who married the sister and
heiress of Roger Penn, the last male
owner of Penn of the name of the fam
lily .(died 1892. The Quaker was born
on Tower hill.-Notes and Queries.

Why do I wear . veil!

Why do wear Q veil?
It's Of no use.
IT'S always fetching loose.
A pi0ything OF the winds. that takes de.
light
In ever being wrong and never right.
Though of my costume tits chief detail.
It makes me fret and fume and fuss and
rail.
This veil!
I cannot get 1t of when 1t IL on,
And once doff 1t, then cannot don.
Why do wear 1t? IT'S q nuisance great,
Beyond all words to state.
And an expense
Immense!
This wretched, ninsy veil!
It IL 30 frail.
To-day buy . new one. and. behold.
Tomorrow It Is old!
Forth to the shops then angrlly HE
Another veil to buy.
On every side / see rare bargain sales.
But not Of wells.
And 10 pay an awful price.
For I must have it nice;
With knots, A
Or spots,
Or tiny polka dots;
Or simple plain illusion. But Of such
buy six times as much.
And so,
You know,
The cost is just as great.
oh, how hate
A veils
Do yoiis sdprSSsssl
I like to feel it rubbing 'gatnst my nose?
Forevet5 Eatching on my eyelash tips,
Persistently atihering to my lips.
The while the ill-dyed blackness of its lace
Makes grimy smudges on my face.
Or II the veil be white.
Itself it smudges till it is sight!
Why do wear it?
Why?
It is a crime thus daily to enwrap
Ones self in such microbe trap!
Death and disease Turk hidden In its curves.
A pest! A bane! A blot upon our sex.
Just made to vex
A burdened woman's cverburdened nerves.
Oh, Fashion, hear my vail!
Or is my plea to let me go without veil
Without avail?

0l0netee and Watch Recently
Invented In Englana.

An invention for the wheelmen is the
combined cyclometer and watch, re-
Gently invented by j. Davidson, of Lon
don, England. It is so constructed that
time and distance are both indicated on
the same dial. For this purpose the cy-
clometer is secured to the front of the
watch or is made integral Herewith,
and the arbor of the mile-hand of the
cyclometer is made to receive the ar
bors Of the hour and minute hands Of
the watch, which latter arbors are
made sufficiently long to extend
through the arbor Of the mile hand and
