IPafel ROSE MICHEL. .ooLUMBiis" sias Bicycle Preparations for '98 WE were the first in the field for a general bicycle business watching every development from the go-off of bicycle riding. Perhaps we were foolishly particular about selling wheels. Unless a wheel was light enough to spin, and strong enough to carry an elephant, and constructed to stay in order, we declined its acquaintance. Name-plates are good enough so far as they go. but the wheel itself must be a thoroughbred before we can entertain it. We are not sellers of what we can make money upon, but we sell well-constructed and tried single-seat carriages for men and women, warranted by our guarantee not to go to pieces in short order and not to run up bills of expense against the owner. Out of all these years we have gathered a bicycle experience. Next year we will have our best year, because our plans are wiser and the wheels better. The Latest Bicycle Thoughts are built into steel and gears in the new '98 wheels just coming in. We discarded some of the makes of wheels once popular and wearing well-known names, to make contracts with makers whose well-tried wheels cannot but do larger credit though the profits be smaller. The Latest News About the Humber The Humber Company authorizes us to make the following announce ment: Humber Chainless will be placed on exhibition December 20th, in our stores, Broadway and Tenth street, New York; Market street, Philadelphia; Fifth avenue and Forty second street. New York; Bedford ave nue and Fulton street, Brooklyn. Not a bevel gear, not a twisting, wriggling complication, but a plain, simple, direct application of power. Fifty per cent, less friction than bevel gears. Indorsed by scientific and practical expert mechanics. Approved by Elliot Burns, Manag ing Director ot Humber & Company, who began the study and manufacture of cycles in 1868, and who has never allowed the public to have an unpracti cal mechanical machine. Adopted by Humber & Company as the only practical geared machine, and the only probable successor of the chain. Does not require 7-inch cranks to propel it. As easy as a chain cycle runs. To this we have only to add that 3 1 Humber wheels, of '97 pattern, are not much more than half price. We shall not confine ourselves to the sale of Humbers. A choice of wheels is as much a necessity as a choice of horses. One person will succeed as a rider on one make of wheel and an other person needs quite another make. New Models for 1898 Wheels Several of the new makes are now in our showroom. This year we are to be the sole agents direct from the makers of sev eral superb and successful wheels. The new '98 Humber is ready to show. It is a step higher in fine wheel making first, and always must be. roadster, s100 tourist, 102 Lady Humber, $106. Among the others we are to have sole control of is the Improved Monarch (under its own name) at g50. The Cygnet a newcomer of strangely graceful and light pattern.

For a large percentage of women, no more welcome gift could be found than a good sewing-machine ; and Wanamaker methods have brought sewing machines down to the common-sense basis of other merchandise. The Wanamaker sewing-machine is simply the best machine that could be made by taking all the points of goodness from other machines. A few years ago patents prevented this. But tne important patents have now ex pired ; the field is open to any one. All of the wall of exclusiveness has tumbled down except the old costly way of selling goods. Why shouldn't it go too ? Here are some of the expensive things that we don't do : 1. Pay canvassers half the selling price for getting the business. 2. Sell on installments and lose part of the price. 3. Send out Instructors to give lessons at houses. Instructions are given at the store. 4. Do the business in a reckless and expensive way, and put the extra cost on paying customers. Come and compare the Wanamaker machines and prices with others. No. 3 machine, with two drawers, $18. Same machine, with Eagle hemmers, $19. Same, with four drawers, $20.
