And if women are to ride

at all I think that they will l e more comfortable, and will look better on a man's wheel and in trousers of the “golf” pattern. The suggestiveness of that attire will vanish wholly just as soon as it becomes conventional and is not regarded with curiosity and disrespect bj- the ribald and licentious. These things depend upon custom, and wheieas it is already considered sufficiently modest to display the leg. as far as the knee, encased in legging, it will be regarded as proper to conceal the higher portion of the limb in trousers. There can be no question that the women one sees uptown looking the most graceful, secure and trim are the ones mounted on men’s wheel. The low-hung woman’s wheel, with the high handle bars and the heavyscreen protectors to prevent the flapping skirts from becoming tangled in the chain, is not a desirable machine, and cannot survive. I should advise all well-shaped young women that are preparing to learn bicycling to learn in man fashion, and to wear the more practicable and modest garb that the circumstances will permit; I advise this in the conviction that in a short time the woman's wheel will pass out of existence, and those now riding it will have to learn over again and hang their skirts in the

clothes’ press.
