Ladies Paid for Cycling.

To the list of callings, already ample, by whioh aristocratic ladies seek to augment their incomes must now be added that of cycle agent. Manufacturers have long ap preciated the advantage of having their cycles ridden by well-known and much talked-about racing men. They now glean profit by making it worth the whi c of ladies m society to use and recommend then machines. " And nome of them are not at all Blow m meeting us half way over the busi ness," declared one depot manager. "Ihe idea first occurred to me when I was aeUing a machine to a very beautiful woman who is the idol of her own select little set. Said she with a sigh, • Bicycles are very dear. I could get a pony at that price ! Besides, my riding your make will be a good adver tisement for you.' Here she looked me straight m the face, and added, Do you know, if I Had that bicycle I would guarantee that at least a dozen of my fnendß wou^d come to you !' I took the hiut ; the lady took the bioyole. And we have just booked OUr eighteenth order from it. J^b as the present boom was setting m another lady, boasting not only a familiar name but a deal of business acumen, purchased a certain make of cycle. Exhibiting the machine to her friends, their expressions of admiration inspired her with an idea. She went to the makera and intimated her curiosity to know if they would eire to allow a commission upon all orders that she influenced —Delighted at the suggestion, the firm, it is gaid, readily promised her fifteen per cent. Orders arrived rapidly ; and when the big rush came and machines fetohed any price that was asked, the makera desired to terminate the arrangement. But -the lady stood firm ; and presumably still continues to draw her four or five pounds on every machine her friends pur chase. "—Casse.Ts Satut day Journal.

THE PREMIER MAKES A STARTLING" SUGGESTION WHICH MAY PROVE AWKWARD FOR SOME PARLIA. * MENTARY CANDIDATES 1 V BE Premier, when speakirfg at the open- ing ceremony of the Palmerston North Art and Industrial Exhibition on Monday last, said : — "I must not forget to mention the Rsnt« gen X Rays which are on view, and have done so much to advance medioal science and assist suffering humanity. Ntfw, it any constitnenoy doubted that their mem- ber had any brains, they could get his head photographed m order to see, and I would strongly advise all constituencies to have the brain of the candidates photographed before making a choice." - This was a most thoughtful suggestion, of the Premier. But what is the value of brains without digestion? He should have gone further and recommended the applica- i tion of the X Rays to the digestive organs of the whole .of Her Majesty's eubjecta, when ' it would have been found that' ihoae whc ' were m the habit of drinking ordinary teas , would find the coating of the stomach con- , verted into a sort of partially tanned ■ leather. This causes indigestion, shortens s life, and spoils the moat angelic temper. , Suratura Tea being as pure as the lily un- . defiled, is not only harmless, but an invigor- [ ating digestive tonic, and is recommended by ) ALL who have usedih. Note. — An impottant omission was nearly being made m this advertisement, viz. : — [ The usual guarantee that Suratura Tea is . NOT blended with China or Indian Teas. 3 JOHN ORR & Co., Agents.
