reCt OppOnent to

with friends much on the road. 1t re-
Quired too great an effort to start the
tandem for the riders to dismount and
engage in friendly converse when an
acquaintance hailed them. The two
were compelled to keep on their road,
the rear rider having an uncomfort
able time of it trying to stretch her
neck to see where the steersman was
taking her, and compelled to trust
blindly to the care of her escort in the
matter of safe steering. Many at
tempts have been made to obviate the
Objectionable features of the tandem
and still retain its few good qualities.
The effort to do this gave us the twin
wheel the riders of which were side by
side. 1t was not a success. The wheels
took up too mach room.
The bicycle rickshaw solves all these
problems at one shot. The lady in the
charming little carriage cannot be ac
cused of failing to help the bicyclst,
for she has merely to sit still and be
wheeled along. Instead of an unsightly
double wheel, the rickshaw is one of
the prettiest and most graceful convey
ances ever put on the road. If a stop
is desired it can be made without the
slightest inconvenience, and bicyclist
and occupant of rickshaw can converse
with mutual acquaintance or with
each other, and start off again with
ease.
For anyone unable to ride a bicycle,
and unwilling to learn, the bicycle
rickshaw is simply the acme of delight,
for all the pleasures of a bike trip can
be enjoyed to the full, with the added
boon of exertion not being necessary.
The bicycle rickshaw can be used by
invalids. but not for long journeys, as
the strain on the bicyclist going uphill
is rather too much, and it is necessary
for the occupant of the rickshaw to get
out and walk on the up-grades. She
gets her reward going down the de-
cline. for this experience is one to be
remembered always with pleasure
The bicycle rickshaws will probably be
used by many with menservants to
propel che conveyance. The sight Of
these occupants of the rickshaws meet
ing and holding social converse will
soon be common one in our parks and
fashionable outdoor meeting places

In his history of New York one Of tho
classics of American authorships, Diedrick
Knickerbocker Washington Irving) wrote
lovingly, yet with unctuous sarcasm, OF the
beauties ard traditions of MS loved 'Nieu
Netherlands" the peaceful valley of the
Hudson from Albany to Manhattan, the
many legends with which the entire region
abounds-notably that of Rip Van Wrinkle
and his long sleep-and of the ancient names
and families whose descendants are still a
power in that locality. So far-reaching were
the effects of the History" that in time the
name 'knickerbocker" became the popular
one for the patron saint of New York City,
he usually being represented as benignant
old German of ample girth, clutching firmly
the long-stemmed clay pipe which Irving I'M
mortaized and gazing over his beloved City.
Recognizing the vein of sentiment in the
American people long ago train service was
inaugurated to New York from St. Louis
to which Father Knickerbocker lent his
name and through the efforts of the line
which introduced the service the "Knickrr-
booker Special has become as familiar to
the average travelled American as to the res
idents of his own City. Leaving st. Louis at
noon, the traveller is borne swiftly and safe
ly to Father Knickerbocker's abode, trav-
eNing by daylight those scenes with which
he was so familiar, arriving at New y ork the
next day in time for leisurely preparation
for evening.
So popular has the service proven that the
Big -Four has started new train as a COM
panon, it leaving St. Louis 500 A. NJ, re-
ceiving all Western and Southwestern con-
nections and arriving in New York at 2 SIS,
the next day. This train is known as the
New York and Boston Limited but the way
farer who travels much will call it Number
Sixteen in emulation of his railroad breth-
rem and inquire if "she" is on time. A
months business has demonstrated that it is
a success. The Big Four's motto is Com
fort in travel" and the train amply lives up,
to the motto, as trip on it will prove to
those who desire every convenience in travel,

WATCHING THE SICKBED.
why the Physician Frequently Pre-.
fers . Hired Nurse to Relatives
or Close Friends.

1t requires strong health and steady
nerves to watch by sickbed. For this
reason a hired nurse is often preferred
by physicians in a critical case to the
relatives and friends of the sick. Moth
ing is so Objectionable in a sickroom as
display of emotion or nerves. Steady
watching, night as we'll as day, is often
necessary when the disease reaches a
crisis, and on such occasions the most
devoted friends are likely to be SO I'M
nerved by anxiety that they cannot
care for the sick properly. The night is
the most dangerous time in sickness.
There should be fresh nurses put on to
watch the sick at night in cases of seri-
Gus disease. One who has watched the
sick during the daytime is unfit for
watching at night, when the greatest
care is necessary and when the facul-
ties should be on the alert to notice
auy change. In regard to the sick at
night, an eminent physician says:
The attendants on a sickbed are well
aware that the objects of their anxiety
experience in ordinary circumstances
the greatest amount of suffering be-
tween midnight and daylight, or the
usual period OF the Growing of the cock.
If we contemplate frame at this
period weakened by disease, we shall
see that it should not be exposed to a
cold temperature, against which it is
i'll qualified to contend. The depressed
temperature and the air approaching
to saturation in their combined influ-
ences act with painful energy, and re-
quire from an intelligent nurse a due
amount of counteracting arrange
mentS."

THE BICYCLE RICKSHAW.
Latest Fad for Lazy Women Who Like
10 See the Summer Man
Exert Himself

The bicycle built for two is to go the
way of all things that have had their
day. A charming device is to take it's
| place this season, known as the "bicy-
Gle rickshaw." The rickshaw is at
tached to an ordinary bicycle by means
| of strong steel wise, and can be ad-
| iusted in few minutes. 1t has pneu
matte tires, and rides as smoothly as
| bicycle. The occupant has merely to
sit still and allow her husband, brother
or sweetheart to propel the bicycle,
and with it the rickshaw.
The weight of the rickshaw is only %
pounds; and, with the easy movement
OF the light, pneumatic-tireG wheels, it
requires very little extra exertion on
the part of the cyclist to carry it with
him. The sight of these graceful little
conveyances skimming along the bicy-
Gle roads and park rideways will be
most enchanting one. They possess so
many advantages over the tandem BIZ
cycle that they are sure to supersede
these almost entirely.
In the first place, the spectacle of a
woman riding tandem has never been
one of which the average citizen APP
proved. Then, again, there has always
been doubt about the comfort and So
ciability of this style of wheel. Con-
yersation was next to an impossibility,
except with the accompaniment of a
mutual stretching of necks that was
disagreeable and often dangerous, for
the steersman has his work cut out to
avoid obstacles, without trying to carry
on a social conversation with the occu-
pant of the rear saddle.
The question as to who was doing
the work usually came in to disturb the
harmony of the occasion in the event
of husband and wife being the tandem
riders. When the muscles began to tire
and the wheel to drag, the mutual ac-
cusations of You're not eXerting your
self at all' were sure to be the prelude
to a more or less acrimonious debate
that marred the enjoyment of the out
ing.
Then the tandem was always the di-
rect opponent to social intercourse

Particular About His Shoes.

A western couple who were on visit to
New York for the first time put up at the
Waldorf Astoria during their stay in this
city, and what was left of their, first day
in New York they largely devoted to view
ing the decorations of the hotel. The myrtle
room, TIE Astor gallery and the great ball
nifcence of the appointments ana oppulent
decorations left them breathless. They
said little, however, in comment, but that
awe was one of the feelings that what they
had witnessed gave rise to was evidenced
by the husband, who, upon retiring for the
night, when he was asked by his faithful
spouse, if, according to his usual custom, he
was not going to put his shoes outside to be
blacEened, emphatically replied: Not
much. If l did they'd gid them. IN. Y.

He croaked when the wind was low

When he had no job he croaked because
He was robbed of a chance to toll.
When he worked he croaked against do

on their golden harps, up there.
