B10YOLE COLUMN.
It is interesting to note how the
leading papers devoted to the sport
of cycling condemn the idiotic hump$
and counsel the riders to sit upright,
it is possible to conceive something
uglier than a wheelman with his chin
on the handle-bars and his spinal
column the shape of dog-scared cat's,
but he is certainly a sight to make
the gods weep. It is the hump-back
scorchers who are doing the most to
bring the sport into disrepute. 1 It is
unhealthy ; it is in every way unad.
visable, and the sooner the wheelmen
frown it down the better it will be for
the sport. Don't ride a wlwel like a
monkey ; ride like a man.
The drought is ruining many roads
for cyclers.
The bicycle fad is reviving among
the ladies of this city. Besides the
considerable number who already
have wheels quite a number of others
arc on the way.
A French physician of eminence
gives the following advice to bicy
clists : 1. No one should ride until
after an examination by a physician,
and the examination should be made
both before and after a run, as cer
tain heart-lesions only become appar
ent after fatigue ; 2, ride, no faster
than eight miles an hour, and 3, to
guard against the impulse that seizes
one on a good road to go faster.
With a light machine an amateur can
easily double that distance, but it will
be injurious. The demand on the
muscles and circulatory system will
be too great, for at twelve miles the
pulse rises to 150, and this unnatural
rate long kept up must inevitably be
harmful.
Samuel 1 larman is now the owner
of one of the finest bicycles ever
brought to this section of the county.
It is a diamond frame Cleveland tan
dem, and is so arranged that it can be
steered from either seat, or the whole
steering arrangement can be taken off,
and guided by the front bars alone.
The wheelman who allows a hearse
to pass him will die before the year
is out.
To see a small boy with a slingshot
beside the road is a prophecy of a
puncture.
To attempt to hold up a 275 pound
woman learning to ride is a siirn of a
soft place.
If you take your machine to the re
pair shop, it is a sign that you will not
buy that new suit of clothes.
Kicking the man who asks the make
of your wheel is a sign of high honors
and riches within a year.
We nave have started a bicycle
column, and we will endeavor to have
it contain matters of interest to bicycle
riders. We invite cyclists to send us
any news which would be of interest
to them.
It is estimated that there are six
hundred bicycles in this town. Aver
aging the value of them at sixty dollars
it would show $36,000 invested.
Some idea of the rate at which the
League of American Wheelmen is
increasing in membership may be ob
tained from the following comparison:
During March, April and May of
1895, there were 4881 more applica
tions for membership than during the
corresponding period of 1894. This
was considered a remarkably rapid
growtli, but during the same three
months of the present year there
were 10,196 more applications than
there were in 1895, or more than
double the increase.
The blowing of the Penntvlvania
division during the three months in
questi ju is a most favorable one. In
1895 the number of applications ex
ceeded those of 1894 by 591, but
those received during March, April
and May of the present year make a
total of 1,745, or more than three
times as many as were sent in last
year. If this record is kept up, as
there now seems every reason to ex
pect it will be, the Keystone stale
should rank second at least in the list
of largest states at the end of the
year.
Harrisburg wheelmen are about to
form a local association, composed ol
members of the League of American
Wheelmen, for the purpose of secur
ing highway improvement, preventing
excessive street sprinkling and secur
ing other reforms. The call has been
issued by a committee consisting of
IL W. Stone, F. P. Snodgrass, W. M.
Hargest, A. C. Stamm and Anson P.
Dare. The League membership in
Harrisburg is now in the vicinity of
200 and is rapidly increasing.

Advice Not to Be Discounted.
The following is sensible advice :
"Drink nothing without seeing it, sign
nothing without reading it, and make
sure that it means nothing more than
it says. Don't go to law unless you
have nothing to lose; lawyers' houses
are built on fools' heads. In any
business never wade in water where
you cannot see the bottom. Put no
dependence on the label of a bag, and
count money before you accept it.
See the sack open before you buy
what is in it, for he who trades in the
dark asks to be cheated."
WANAMAKER CLOTHING
The timely clothing is serge
$7-5o to $18 a suit, to meas
ure $25, or $30 if you prefer
there's nothing else so easy,
comfortable and goodlooking
in summer.
We need to say three things
about it : (1) we sell thousands
of serge suits every summer ;
(2) the $7.50 is a good sub
stantial durable suit don't
judge by the price without
seeing; (3) the $18 is Clay,
the best in the world ; the
cloth ranks highest, costs most;
the making is like the cloth.
The to-measure is Clay. .
There are several grades
between the $7.50 and $18
suits. The prices seem low ;
they are ; but not below our
usual scale.
Bear in mind we sell
$3,000,000 of clothing a year ;
it is not done at extravagant
prices.
Trousers 5,000 in sight;
another 5,000 ready to take
their places.
Begin at $1.50; we don't
make 'em ; don't know much
about 'em. Good ones $2 to
J556.50 ; we make 'em and know
all about 'em.
This is at Oak Hall ; the
other stores have enough, not
so many, not so much room.
Your money back if you
want it.
We mention the postoffice
store because it's new ; super
fluous probably.
Golf and bike suits $5 to
$10.
