Some one has come to the aid of the bicyclist, and invented a bicycle support, which can be secured to the machine, and raised at will, so as not to interfere with the wheel when in motion. It is just the thing all bicyclists have been longing for. [Illustration] Another busy brain has been at work in anticipation of the summer, and the glorious time in store, riding along the country roads. [Illustration] An umbrella support is the result. It consists of an attachment composed of portions which can be connected or removed at will. What a boon it will be, on a hot summer's day, to have an umbrella comfortably held over one's head, while the hands are free to guide the wheel!

They have been written as occasion suggested, during several years; and they commemorate to me many of the friends I have known and loved in the animal world. "Shep" and "Dr. Jim," "Abdallah" and "Brownie," "Little Dryad" and "Peek-a-Boo." I have been fast friends with every one, and have watched them with such loving interest that I knew all their ways and could almost read their thoughts. I send them on to other lovers of dumb animals, hoping that the stories of these friends of mine will carry pleasure to young and old. * * * * * =WILLIAM BEVERLEY HARISON,= =3 & 5 West 18th Street.= * * * * * =KLEMMS'= =RELIEF PRACTICE MAPS.= * * * * * =LIST OF MAPS.= Small size, 9-1/2 x 11 { Plain, 5 cents each. { With Waterproofed surface 10 " " Europe, Asia, Africa; North America, South America, East Central States, New England, Middle Atlantic States, South Atlantic States, Palestine, Australia.
