Sometimes, in de spair, he loosens the rear wheel and shove it forward, although he knows that the chain adjustment waa right before the chain waa removed. The trouble la due to an effort to join the ends of the chain in the wrong way. He should begin by lay ing one end on the large sprocket, an shown at left of the picture, and hold HOW TO JOIN A CHAIN. It there with the right hand, while carrying the chain over the small sprocket and around forward under neath with his left one. Then chaugc hands. Hold the end of chain ou top of sprocket with left hand, and pick up the other end from below with right hand, and bring it into position shown at right sido of picture. Both ends will then fit over the teeth of tho sprocket wheel and will fall exactly into place, so that the bolt will fit in without difficulty. L. A. W. Bulletin. RIGHTS OF WHEELMEN. Illercles Have as Manr Prlrlleses in the Pobllo Highway as Other Wheeled Vehicles. An example should be mode of some of the teamsters who insist upon dis regarding the rights of wheel riders In the public streets. Many drivers of teams take especial delight, apparently, In occupying as much of the paved streets as possible. They do that particularly on streets where there are railway tracks. Driv ers of heavily loaded trucks and wagons Insist upon getting in the mid dle of the space between the curb aud the railway tracks, and will turn neither to the right nor the left to let a wheel rider pass, when they could easily make room without inconven ience to themselves. Perhaps the drivers are not aware of the fact that a law was passed at the recent session of the legislature which provides that wheel riders shall have the right of way ia the gutters of all roadways, and making It a misde meanor for any driver of a team to re fuse or neglect to turn out when noti fied to do bo by a signal from a wheel rider's belL It Is pure meanness which prompts drivers of teams to obstruct the way of wheel riders, and If the police would arrest a few of them a good example might be set. Ittoycles have just as many rights In the public highways as have other wheeled vehicles, and. Inas much as wheel riders are forbidden to nse the sidewalks, an sffort should be made to save the portion of the streets to which they are entitled from un necessary obstruction. Cleveland Leader. SCREWING ON PEDALS A Subject Old the Safet? lUcrcle Itself la Aft-ata Coming l'p (or Dlamaslom. The question how pedals should be j screwed Into cranks Is being discussed , on the other side, and much the sumo ; arguments are being used that were i used here hi a similar discussion some , tlaio ago. It Is curious how lntelll- I gent, practical and experienced men i differ on this subject, and how various i are the explanations of those whoso ' opinions do coincide. After every- j thing la said, however, one fact re mains, and that is that the right side pedal pin must have a right-hand thread and the left side pedal pin a left-hand thread. In other words, it is necessary to have both pedal pins nraw irrarnnia th flnnt of fhn fnn- I chine aa ther are Dut Into the cranks. Experience has proved conclusively that, with a good fit, pedals put ou this way need to be screwed up but moderately tight, while pedals screwed on the reverse way (toward the rear) have to be jammed hard In a disadvantageous and Injurious man ner In order to make them hold. L. A. W. Bulletin. Aatomatle Chain Cleaner. A Providence (R. L) inventor has ad vanced an attachment for automatic ally cleaning the chain of a bicycle when It is In motion. The inventor claims to have provided a device operating with practically no friction and simple in construction. It con sists of a rotary brush on the arm at tached to the lower stay on the sprocket side of the wheel. The lower portion of the sprocket chain passes between the forks of the arm, rests upon the brush, and, as there is al ways more or less slack in the chain at this point, its own weight keeps it in contact with the brush, which is made to rotate and clean the chain as It passes over It Kffscfs of Dlerele Uldlag. Dr. Sargent, of the Harvard uni versity gymnasium, says that the chest capacity of the person who aits upright on a Wheel Is 40, one who sits at an angle of 45 degrees, 200, and the one who assumes the scorching pose 210. Dr. Sargent approves of a rider loaning over at an tingle of 4!i degrees. pisviJed the beiid is held propsrlj. MISCELLANEOUS ITEMS. Ostly one person in a thousand diet of old age.

Secret ftatnre of the Flies A Substi tute for Slarrlaae A Negro's Illustration. The southern darkies are a constant source of amusement, when they are not the cause of unmitigated wrath, to the northern people who go down there among them. The other day a young northern woman, living In Washington aud possessed of a deep aud abiding antipathy for flies, com plained to Luclnda, tho oolored serv ant, that there were a good many of tho pests In the house. "I don't see, Lucludu," she remarked, severely, "how all these flies could get In If you kept the screen doors closed." "Well, I dunnu, eitheh, miss," cheer fully remarked Luclnda. "Hut you know they ia of a sec cot nachuh, mlsa." Down In Mississippi, in one of the lumber towns, wldch is owned by northerners, the house servants and some of the laborers are darkies. They are not very strict In their notions of law and order, and they have their own nnd very lax Ideas along the line of matrimony. Wives aiul husbands are swapped off with such freedom nnd frequency that It is rather hard to keep track of the exact contempo raneous combination among the ne groes at a given time. The colored : people have solved the delicate point t of expressing exact relationship by i avoiding the subject of matrimony al- together. I " 'Uze she's cookln' fur Duke John j eon now." That's the way they put it. ' The woman doesn't "marry" anybody. She "cooks fur" him. One of these darkles yin tolling I about a woman on a steamboat. The levee hod caved so that the boat had I to land further up than wual. It was st night and the searchlight, tamed ; on the bank, did not reveal anvthing familiar to the woman. She hung back, therefore, and the darkv who hod been detailed to put her ashore I didn't know what to do. j "She stood thah like a horse loolcin at a strange gate," he said. ! It was this same negro who was one day listening to one of his sequalnt I nnces dilate on experiences with the Lord. From the darky's accounts these experiences seemed to have been extremely Intimate, and without a word of comment the negro spoke up and said: "Wen you all seen de Lord, wah lie ?" That is to say: When you saw the Lord, where woe lie? The boaster was quite taken aback by this simple question and subsided. X. Y. Sun. England's College of Arms.
