Why There Are Strap-Hanaers.

Burton J. Hendricks article on Great
 American Fortunes in the December McClure's, explains the appalling lack of equipment in the New York street cars. According to MT. Hendrick the great transit monopoly was bankrupt through the manipulation of the ring that controlled 1t. William c. Whitney, after aiding in Cleveland's election, retired from public life, and for the next ten years his new Tammany asso- ciates became his instruments In the ac- emulation of his personal fortune. Now, also, Wdener and Elkins found time to concentrate all their energies upon New York. In the preceding eight years they had exploited the Chicago railroads to their utmost capacity, making many mill lions in reorganizing and rebuilding them. They perceived in New York an oppor- tunity of even greater possibilities. The city had entered upon it's period of great est growth; new undeyeloped areas were being built up every year; the population was increasing annually by tens of thou sands; and new franchises of enormous value were about to be awarded. Seldom have capitalists found such opportunities for great public service and legitimate personal profit The people who contributed to these profits were large ly innocent investors. In 1902 President , Vreeland, in an official statement, de- 1 clared that many of the Metropolitan stockholders were people of small means and dependent upon the income deriVed , from dividends for their support Their stock, which in 1899 was quoted at $26s share. now goes begging at SS5. The
 holdings of the Metropolitan Traction company, which in 1899 had a value of Ss6. 100000, today could probably not be sold for $l0000, 000."

Bread That Won't Rise.

When your bread fails to rise, don't throw the dough away, and, by all means, don't attempt to bake 1t, for 1t will certainly be unfit to eat, says the December Delineator. Instead, take a teacupful of flour, two heaping teaspoon fuls of baking powder scant teacupful of lard, and enough warm milk or water to make a sticky dough. Work this in with the other dough: roll fiat, and cut into the shape of biscuits. Then bake quickly. The result will be a lot of, bis cults, so nice and light that everybody will agree that they are superior to the ordinary soda or baking powder variety. The proportions given will be found sui ficient if there was not more than a quart of flour used in making the first dough.

They know in their honest young hearts that a bicycle is a possession to be enjoyed and cherished And they aecep. if for the good it can give, and think no more about 1t.
 That is the reason. no doubt, that where one wheel was sold at Christmas time a few years ago. hundreds are soid TO- day.
 But there has been great change Tor +be better. even in juvenile wheels. While if was once thought, apparently, that any sort of a bicycle would do. If 1t rrere to go to youthful rider makers with good judgmentanow realize that a wheel that must carry younsster with safety. must be the equal in every par, ticular of those made for adults. And this ia the case with the product of many factories today. In fact makers take care to explain that their juvenile wheels, in material, worhmanship anu aou;nuent are as good or better than those intended for stronger and more ex- perienced riders.

WHEELS

Bicycles Grow Popularity Presents for Youngsters

In this connection, it is only just to say that there seems to be no longer d division of the year into seasons for adult wheelmen. All the months are about the same to them, now-a-days The bicycle plays so important part in our everyday life, is so great an economizer of money and time, and pays such royal dividends in health, digestion and good humor that it's devotees snap their fing- CTS at fashion-or rather are bringing fashion to the wheel again.
 Those who have not paid any special attention to the remarkable renewal of interest in wheeling during the past half decade. will be astonished to know how the production of bicycles both in this country and abroad, is increasing. In 1904. the output in America was conser- vatively estimated at 2O0.O00 bicycles, and

Judging from the number of Christmas bicycles that have been sold for the past few years one might imagine that our climate is changing, and that what once was regarded solely as a summer sport. has, unaccountably, wandered into other portions of the calendar.
 But the fact is. there is scarcely a week in the year, even in the most northerly tier of states, when a bicycle cannot be used to good advantage, and perhaps grown folks had to wait until more youthful riders proved the case. How ever that may be, it is certainly true that all the year round riding is decidedly more common in these days, and bicycle at Christmas time is now regarded as most appropriate-and even timely-gift.
 Riders of tender years are not worried greatly concerning fads and fashions.

How Icebergs Arc Born.

The birth of huge iceberg, a phe- noinenon that has been seen only once or twice by European and to a cer- tain extent has remained a matter of theory, was observed by the Danish explorers on the east coast of Green land some time since. The bergs are formed by breaking off from the end of glaciers extending from the perpet- ual ice of the unexplored interior to the coast and into the sea. The water buoys up the sea end of the glacier until it breaks by its own weight with a terrific crash. The commotion of the water as the iceberg turns over and over in the effort to attain it's balance is felt to a great distance along the coast The natives regard 1t as the work of evil spirits and believe that to look upon the glacier in it's throes Is death.
