H BICYCLE
Is STILL
SUPREME
A Few Facts That Upset the
Opinions of Some Care
less Observer.

During the past few weeks. several
newspapers who arc out OF touch
with real conditions. have been gfvinx
some publicity to the statement mad.
BY James NJ. Mckinley. of the Now
York Athletic Club. who n an en-
thusiastic bicycle rider. ALTHOUGH he
has been an active wheeiman for
twenty-five yearN he 10 no CONVEX
SAINT with facts. for he Is accredited
with tho statement that bicycle travel
IN America 10 a lost art.
To those OF u who know the facts.
this statement Is ludicrous. The facts
are these: The largest year In the
history Of what are commonly known
as the bslmy days OF bicycling was
1885. when some 100000 bicycles were
made and sold This record was
duplicated IN 1910. and the Miami
Cycle q Manufacturing Company. OF
Micdietown. Ohio. are authority for
the statement that the present year
Will see between 100000 and 500. 900
bicycles disposed OF before tho year
Is closed.
Far from being a lost art bicycle
travel hs, become sn assured and set
tied fact. Not only are moro OF them
being made and sold today than ever
before in history of this country.
but the bicycle itself Is being put TO
better and more consistent use. The
days OF excessive riding. track races.
bicycle meets and century runs have
been done away with. All such
artihcial means OF stimulating the
Industry were dropped twelve or
hfteen years nEo. The only st,mu-
lus that comes 10 the industry today
IL the natural and sane demand for
n bicycle as a legitimate mode OF
plea~nre and business travel. One
who lives IN the heart OF n great city
Ike New York can he forgiven for
not realizing these facts. but those
OF US who are living in the smaller
cities and In the open unit know
that the bicycle r. established here 20
stay. and hat Its sane and sensible
use Will continue Indefinitely.
There are no manufacturing fnsti-
buttons OF IN kind on 20 good a
footing as those engaged in the man
ufacture Of bicycles. The men who
have money invested In this industry
are 20 be congratulated.

The Foreign Beef Trade.

Something like 100000 pounds of
beef have been imported into this
country from Australia and Argentina
during the official year ended June 80
last. While this amounts to less than
two ounces of beef for each inhab-
liant, yet it is twenty times the total
of our annual importations prior to
last year and may indicate the arrival
of an entirely new factor in the fue-
tuations of meat prices.
No doubt we are drifting toward a
steadily developing market for for
eign beef in this country, which can
be sold at a good profit at much
lower rate than our yearly decreasing
output of domestic beef, despite trans
portation and tariff charges. All this,
of course, provided that our packers
do not take hand in the raising and
packing of beef in those countries and
thus manage to control the prices the
world over without having to face
American antitrust laws.

WHY OUR CITIES LACK BEAUTY.
From the New York Man.

From the New York Mai.
H T. Parker. a Boston writer of
considerable eminence has discovered
the reason why American cities as a
rule are unbeautiful. while their suburbs
are beautiful; and he has discovered IL
at the moment OF noting the fact that
nearly alh German cities are beautiful.
while their suburbs are insignificant.
The secret lies in this-that the rich
Americans. when he has money to spend
in building. always spends II on his
residence as a rule, in beautiful place
In the country, whereas the rich German
contents himself with a modest apart
ment or little house in which to live,
but T. Immediately on his mettle when
he thinks Of building his store. his manu-
factory or his bank.
The German, In such a situation,
calls as great an architect as he can
possibly afford and puts up a fine
building, which may be his monument
fo= generations. And t, gether with
the structures. reared by similarly
minded ''industrials," il makes of his
town a beautiful place. in which he
has constant pride.
There Is much truth in this generaliza-
ton. The average American business
man is satisfied with his store, or his
mandatory. or his warehouse. IL IL Is
big and convenient. 1t does not occur
{ him that II ought to be beautiful
A business building that is externally
a mere barracks. in a line with other
barracks, contents him well enough.
What is it for but to make money in
money with which he can render his
family comfortable and happy, money
which will enable his wife and children
to spend their time agreeably in a beau
tiful place?
So We have dingy cities in America, or
at least dlngy commercial and manufac-
turing quarters. and beautiful homes in
the country or the suburbs. Our jagged
city skylines cry out In vain for har-
mony. for coherency OF design. for grace
and dignity. They become places which
are joyfuIly deserted when business
hours are over, by men whose hearts are
far away and whose eyes are to feast
just as long as possible upon green
swards. or the lakes that gem our hills,
or the sunny shores OF purple seas
Where a mans treasure is, his heart is
also; and the real treasure OF the aver
age American business man Is not in his
warehouse.
