Our Advertisers will do themselves a cood turn and us a favor iy sending in advertising copy early.

We have not learned the amount of the receipts but presume a goodly sum was realized for the benefit of the Library. WE have no excuses to offer our read­ ers for the large amount of advertising matter we cany just now. It is a com­ pliment to the subscribers as well as to this paper; a compliment to <-the paper as being a paper that is read by the peo­ ple of this section, and a compliment to the subscribers as being desirable pur-" chasers, men and women who read and judge, and buy and pay for what they get. Besides the ads make mighty inter­ esting reading. "The merchants oi McHenryJare fully alive to the necessity of advertising their wares in' a clean, live paper, that goes into the homes of the largest number of families in and about McHenry county. .We advise each read­ er to look the announcements of these merchants over carefully before buying. Money can be saved by so doing. Mer­ chants who advertise are universally the live, energetic, responsible business men of the town, who have faith in their goods and prices, and are not afraid to meet competition.

A 'BICYCLE riding instructor has com­ piled the following simple rules to guide the beginner: l. Grasp the handle-bare lightly.' Do not stiffen the. muscles . of the arms, and shoulders. 2. Turn the wheel gently in the direction toward Which you feel you are falling. Do not jerk it, but turn gently. 3. Do not be afraid to bear down on the pedals. The faster you go the wore easily will the wheel be controlled, but do not attempt "scorching" until you feel you are mas ter of the wheel. 4. Always look ahead, or rather toward the point to which you wish to go. If you look down at the wheel you are sure to become "rattled," and if you fix a terror-stricken gaze on any object you wish to avoid you are almost sure to run into it. List of Nominations.
