but I have decided to do so in view OF
the Fgaro's attitude. desire to
read also the late Calmette's will"

the presiding Judge. They were not
read in court. In his speech. M.

BACK TO THE BICYCLE

Since the recent improvement
of our roads and streets, we OBJ
serve that not only have more
and better automobiles been pur-
chased, but there has been a
notable increase in the number
of bicycles in use, both for pleas
ure and for business. We are
pleased to know this. For we
believe in the humble bicycle.
It is within the reach of ALL.
It enables merchants to make
quick and inexpensive deliveries
Of small purchases. FURNISHES
enjoyment for the young and
old-and, with that endowment,
comes the necessary EXERCISE
which is in the
building up Of a strong body and
mind. These features the auto
mobile does not and cannot COM

will do you GOOD, and it will do
