THE WHEEL AGAIN.
Prediction That Ia Bicycle Has Re-
turned to Stay.

turned to Stay.
NEW YORK, Feb. 26.-The revival
Of the bicycle and its return to favor is
confidently predicted by the great dis
play and interest taken in the bicycle
Eection of the sportsmen's show in
Madison Square Garden. In fact, the
return of the erstwhile road king to his
cid time position as supreme ruler Of
the highway was declared to have al
ready begun.
The basic reason for this claim is the
general interest shown in the bicycle
exhibits and the deluge of orders FOR
wheels Of all kinds and description.
The chaihless, and particularly the
double gear, which admits of a change
by a slight move of the foot on the
pedal from low gear to high, OF vice
versa, has proved the most popular
with the show visitors.
Next to the ic~hainless the motor cy-
Gle, a sort Of two wheeled automobile,
is the favorite. Not so popular, but
still popular enough to cause Il rush Of
orders that will tax the capacity OF
some of the big factories, are the chain
wheals OF all grades and prices.

IDEAL IN HOUSEKEEPING.
ditions Are Passing Entire- ly Away.

A generation ago to be an ideal house. keeper was the chief ambition of almost every woman. No girl desired fairer fate than to be placed at the head of a household with good and loving hus- band to supply all her wants and make her the mistress and the queen of his heart and his home. In most cases, says the Peoria Herald Transcript, the girl who started housekeeping had more or less experience in theart under the tuition of her mother She loved to decorate and beautify the house which was to be her home during the rest of her earthly pil- grimage. She loved to create delicacies for her husband and her children, and, disguise 1t as we may, much of the af- section she received was due entirely to her skill as a homemaker. When her children grew up around ner this kind and sympathetic mother and the pantry were the chief attractions in their world. AS they grew older the ties only grew the stronger. When they acquired families of their owr the old homestead, with it's abundance of good things, still had
 
 mother wa. still their best friend. She knew all the difficulties they had to en- counter in starting homes of their own. and her advice and sympathy were worth more to them than gold. The grandchildren came to venerate her as . sort of venerable goddess, and when she finally went away from the home circle she left vacancy which could never be filled.
 But we are assured with every symp- tom of rejoicing that these conditions are passing; that women have been emancipated; that ir the future they are to be the rival, instead of the helpmate, of man, and that they must combine to enforce their just demands against the hostility of the male sex. This Is non. sense pure and simple. It may be true that there are more mannish women in this generation than there were in the last. It Is unfortunately true that a larger proportion of the female popula- ton has been forced to be self-support ing. but 1t is not true that women enjoy the so-called liberty" which goes with tO1ling Tor living.
 The home Instinct is too deeply planted in the heart of women to be re. moved by the effects of generation of club work. It will never be removed. A few women may go after strange gods. but the natural, wholesome girl will still find her highest ideal of happiness in a good husband and a cozy homo. Tho clubs may succeed in making such homes impossible to few men and women by making the young women feel that they have a more important work in the world than the prosaic duty of home making, but among the masses of the American people the mother will con- tinue to be the bond which un1tes tho unities of that holy institution the fam fly, and she will continue in this exalted role until the end of all things.

There is big difference be- tween the cost of making a first class sewing machine, embodying the best materials and workman ship, and one which is made in the cheapest manner.

4 WORD OF COMFORT
To the Distressed.

Fortunately for those suffering with Rheumatism in all its various forms, in' cluding Sore Joints, Sore Muscles, and Sore Feet, remedy has been discovered by modern science which in every instance effects speedy and positive cure: This new remedy is founded on scientihc prln- ciples which are acknowledged by the medical world as the only correct treat nent for Rheumatic or Neuralgia troubles. Medicines taken internally rarely ever ef- feet cure without upsetting the stomach. As rule, they injure the digestive organs, shatter the nerves, and in many instances the patient contracts drug habit which leads eventually to decline of the physi- cal and mental forces.
 Paracamph is the new remedy and it is departure from the auiquated methods. Paracamph enters into the system through the natural channels, namely, the pores of the skin. When applied it opens the pores and allows the healing, soothing oils to penetrate the sore, infa1ned rnebranes and muscles, removes the congestion and draws out the fever and inflammation, by inducing sweating. This is the only treat ment that can be indorsed by science, and is guaranteed to cure even the most obstl- nate cases of Rheumatic Swellings if used as directed. Paracamph can be procured at drug stores in 25 cent, and 50 cent, and fl .oo bottles. Write for book of testimo- nials, sent free. The Paracamph Company Louisville, Ky., U. $. A.

 Great heavens!" he cried, in wild alarm. Perhaps you are ill. Tell me. Is it so, seventeenth"
 "No." she said, through fresh burst of tears, '1t is not that"
 A look of deep perplexity overspread his handsome visage, and, pushing her back so that he could look down into her big, beautiful, tear-dimmed eyes, he asked:
 Then, what in the dickens is the trouble?"
 "I was j-just think-thinking," she re- turned, "how miserable should be If you were to die and I w-were to marry s-some one who wouldn't appreciate all this magnifcence."
