Time to Hurry.

A new method of reckoning time Is reported from Washington by way of the Star: “There Is such a thing as becoming too much devoted to the bicycle,” said a young woman. “I was riding with a friend of mine who demonstrated that fact." “Did she talk continually about the wheel?” “No, she didn't talk about anything until I asked her If she knew what the hour was. She looked down at her cyclometer and said we’d better hurry home, as It was two miles and a quarter past dinner-time."
