A. A. Zimmerman , time riding expert , wrIt-

seasoname suggestions :
"Women , more than men , must sit up

"See to it that time saddie is kept in its

"As imetweon time seat anm time pedals , do

"Itemnember what I have said before to eli

bad for wonien to ge into time imabit. Mammy

time rocking motion adds to timeir speed or
helps timeni along. It does nothing of time
kind. On time contrary it does a woman
positive anti distinct injury , as any medical
man will tell you.
"W'hmat I bave said about woolen under-
ciotiming and keeping out of draughts when
the ride is over and the avoidance of drink-
lag cold fluids applies wltlm more force to
women than men. Remember you are not
so strong as men and can't endure time same
strain. Don't ride too long or too far. Time
best rule is for you to get home before you
get tired. If you do return tired lie down
at once. Remember that too mucim bicycle
riding Is quite as hami on the nervous systenm
as arm thmo muscles. Use the bicycle and yomm
wilt be benefited. Abuse It and you wIll
rue it.
"There Is no form of exercise which Is
bttter suited to timose who are beyond the

Lain restrictions , of course. The elderly person

would suggest a sixty-six or a sixty'Cnur-

"In riding , sit up straigimt. It is not mieces-
