Of course you believe your present wheel is perfection and that no other ma.- chine rivals it, but HAVE you ever noticed that while riding your bicycle, either slowly, at good speed, or on a Windy day, your skirt is Continually drawn betWeen the guard and rear wheel? YOU / no doubt have been thrown off by this disagreeable catching of your Skirt, Or have torn it until you are disgusted with Wheeling. AN agent selling bicycles Will tell you your dress is too long or not the proper style, but this is not true. Your dress is all right and becom. ing. The fault lies with the wheel. The guard does not extend back- ward far enough over the wheel, nor has it the right pitch. The only two wheels on the market that will not catch your skirt are sold by me. One is the ORIENT at my store at any time and and the other is the Saracen. To be convinced that I am right, stop try either of these wheels. Yours Until Death, II.
