cHA1NLEss BICYCLES.
Careful Observers OF the Trade Say
That They Are steadily Coming
Into More General Use.

With each succeeding season tho
bevel gear chainless type of wheel
has found its popularity increasing,
until it is rapidly approaching a
point where in the near future it
will divide honors with the chain
wheel. There is little question but
that were the price of both types the
same the chainless would come into
universal use within single season.
The cost of manufacture, however.
owing to the greater care and ex"
pensive machinery employed in CUT
ting the gears, necessitates higher
price being put upon the chainless
than upon the chain wheel, and in
consequences it holds its position to-
day as the product de luxe of the BIZ
cycle industry. The difference in
price, however, is BY NO means .
formidable one, and when the SUI
perior features of the type are con-
sidered is we'll worth paying. Cleanli-
ness, Of course, is one of the great
desideratums, as is the lack of ne
cessity, in drop frame designs, for
complicated dress guards. Within the
past two years adjustment and ac-
curacy in gear cutting has been
brought so near the mark of perfec-
ton that backlash has been reduced
to the minimum, and the highest ap-
plication of power with the least ef-
fort, is assured. So substantial are
the gears themselves that the chances
for breakage are most remote, and
the attendant results of 'sprocket
jumping chain are, of course, with
out the pale of possibility. The
writer knows of no instance in which
the rider of chainless wheel has
gone back to . chain mount, but is
familiar with countless instances in
which chain wheel riders have for
ever abandoned their mounts for q
bevel gear wheel.-Cycling Gazette.

Late in the afternoon the father

Reports are reaching civilization of
the operations Of the past winter in
the interior and upon the coast of
Labrador. The season was, generally
speaking, a mild one, and the fatali-
ties among the Indians fewer than
usual, good supply of furs was Sc
cured, but none of such peculiar value
as some of those taken during the
preceding winter, says the New York
Sun.
The highest price paid for single
skin of last winters catch was 5000,
which was for black silver fox, the
king of all the fur-bearing animals of
Labrador. Exactly double that amount
was paid for a skin of the same va
riety, u very noble specimen, about .
year ago. Prices in general are
scarcely so good at present as they
were this time last year.

as much as $25 skin, sold this spring

AUTOMOBILE GLASSES.
Kinds Used to Protect the DrlveP'o
Eyes and Face When Going 1t
High Speed.

To the various sorts of glasses de.
signed for drivers use have now been
added automobile glasses, especially
designed for the use Of the automobile
driver. These are not worn in tho
city, where, with the restrictions on
the speed of automobiles, they are not
needed; but they are worn in the coun.
try, where the automobiles un-
shackles the machine and let's it go
at 40 or so miles an hour, more or less.
Going at that speed his eyes need pro.
lection, and this is afforded by the
automobile glasses.
These glasses are spectacles fitted
with very large shell-shaped or con.
vexed glasses, the size and the shape
giving large field of vision. Attached
to the frame is mask that projects
high enough above the glasses to cover
the forehead of the wearer, up under
the peak of the cap, and that extends
below the glasses and out at the sides
along the spectacle bows, sufficiently
to cover the entire fall, front and
sides.
For winter wear, when some
warmth in it would be desirable tho
mask is made of siede leather, lined
with silk; for summer use these
glasses are made with the mask of un.
lined silk, either of the gray suede
color or of black. g..
Automobile glasses arc French
notion, and originally all those sold
here were imported from France.
Now they are made here. Lots Of
them are sold. They cost, according
to the material the mask is made of,
from $3.50 to IS a pair.-N. Y. Sun.

HIGE GEARS FOR WOMEN.
Veteran Rider Says They Are Re-
spOnsible for the Tired Feeling
Experienced BY Lady Riders.

Too much emphasis cannot be laid
on the fact that many women have
been discouraged from riding by the
use of gear too high for them. "Low
gears for women" is sign that vet
eran century 'plugger" says should
be in the window of every cycle shop.
He added:
''Not a day passes that in talking
about wheeling do not hear some
woman remark that she doesn't ride
because she gets tired, and when I ask
her what gear she rides she tells me
so or Il, or something like that; some
times "a or IS. That tells the secret.
Women walk with shorter step than
men. They have shorter legs and less
muscle, yet they have been led along
until half of them are riding high
gears. It's a shame. They should
have q low gear that will give them .
short, quick and easy stroke. In the
early eos, Sc. So and 63 gears were
thought high enough for women.
Now they use from 70 to 30. I think
66 to 6s is what they should use, even
considering that wheels run better"
