BEWARE THE BICYCLE EYE. ' Are the Eyes of Amrriran Wheelwnmcn Beginning to Ontgrow Their Stckc'u'.’ Persons who have been gently but firmly opposed to bicycling for women hrs.» vm' red to suggest from time to than fuzz: this somewhat violent form of aeration EA? is unmistakable traces upon to) «lslidite feminine frame. It has been broadly hinted that the harmonious promotions of the most ilnely formed young woman rapidly sucruznh‘ to the ruiclvzl influences of bicycle riding and that the rv-ults of the unlsdy-iiko excr- ('l~’I' :5] pear in enlarged waist. and broader and more masculine hands, and feet of n slzc that is positively disgrace- ful.

It is now olhlmwl thotthc woman bicyclist, not only has the “bicycle face," of which wc used to hour so much, but she hus it in an sgcmvntcvl form. Her malady is, .‘o be exact, the “bicycle eye.” [he worst feature of this nmlady, my those who have observed its {ll'Vi‘l' opmcnt is that it is chronic and incur- nblc. This makes the case well worthy of cunsidcrntlon and cannot fail to sug- gest to overzealous wheolwomen that if they persist in cultivating the store that sec-3.5 to be necessary in order to acquire speed and avoid vehicles, they may uctu- oily he mommng the future of the hu- mmi rum. it is easy to see that the full- in'z oil in physical beauty will be swift arid sure.

As the most clever in tak- ing cure of themselves will be those who 'hmc cultivated the biggest store and cons..-:1ucntly the most bulging eyes, the transmission of this undesirable chamo- lurlstio will be as inevitable as it will he unlovoly. The scenes represented in the illustra- tion will then not be occrsimnl but univcrsol The bulge-eyed bicyclist will be synonymous with the average citizen. Worse than this, not only every man but iovery woman will be the victim of the abnormal facial characteristic thut the artist so cleverly pictures.

Whatever may be one's personal opin- ion ns to the beauty of terraces. it is cer- tain that men and Women will continue to like them and to construct them. I: is important, therefore. to know how to construct them in the beat manner. But before explaining a wrinkle or two that are of value in terrace building, I want to protest vigorously against the making of double terraces. They are an abomin- ation in the sight of good landscape gardening; and as for three terraces, one above anotherâ€"well, words full me fitly to characterize such atrocious mutil- ation of the “old sod: In making a single terrace it is a somewhat difllcult, msttcr to make a .. loose bank of earth remain in place un- til the and is npnllcd, and even after the sod is in place any pressure on the top of t”. ' terrace is likely to cause the whole u;.;-cr edge to slip off. To prevent this trouble, drive two or three rows of stokes nlong the extent of the proposed terrace, and to the upper part nail rough boards. as shown in the cross section in Fig. 1. 'l’hls will hold the heaped-up earth in place till the sod is applied, and there- after will give great flrmnass to the ter- race until nature so com pacts all the materials as to make slipping impor-sible, as shown in Fig. :3. There is shown in this cross-section an excellent point in applying turf to ter- races. The end of the roll is begun on the level top of the terrnoo,nnd is carried out over the edge and down the slope, thus giving no open crack at the upper edge, where an opening is specially detri- mental to the well-being of a terrace. As sharp and distinct on edge con be made in this way as where the opening comes at the edge, while the results of the former practice are for superior.â€" Country Gentleman. Bull) Planting. From the middle of September to the middle of October is the best time for bulb plunting, particularly crocuses, hyucinths. and tulips. 'l‘he crocus likes a rich soil, and should be set about three inches below the sur- face, .‘illd some distance npnrt. Before lmr‘l irosts, cover the bed with stuble litter or any course dresdng, it will nerd no further care. If your garden is conâ€" venient to border, the crocus is a. nice bulb to use. but the hyacinth shows to better advantage in beds. Set hyacinth bule four inches below the surface about six inches apart, give liberal top dressing when cold weather sets in. The gay and flountiug tulip, and the crocus as well, have long boon popular in the bulb family. Like all other spring flowering bulbs, it must he set in nu- tumn. but once planted it remains in the ground, and. if conditions are favor . nblc, increases from your to your. The nurclssus or dnfi'odil should be foun'l in cvcry garden, and the little shitlus and snowdrops should also have a place. One will find the price of bulbs quite rensonnhle, and their culture easy. The iris, too, in its many colors and varieties claims attention, and the lint-lo llanunculus bulb will show its brilliant flowers in June. After bulbs are sot and secured from winter framing. the work of the gar- donor is done. No woods to ilgizt nor dry \vcather to lament. Nothing but to push away the covering and enjoy the flowers.
