colemnnly avers that there have been only

count , when ( ho winil was not blowing from
( lie soutlm In time morning am ! front ( lie north
when he mounted his vlmeel for the ride
home , his statement is dimly credited.
It iappeils that this particular Individual
Iniierlts a well markel : Inventive facility from
rome remote generation , amul time rcealt is that
lie has ptrfcteiI a vclierne by which lie
proiniL' im to defy the olanients. Not only
vlhi ho make it possible to ride in the facO
of e stiff wind as easily as thought not a
'breath was utIrring , but he vill utilze ( lie
wimid as a means of actually assiting looonmo-
( ion. lie line boon at work at odd houri
for several mentis iii perfecting his idea , and
haL' no\ % ' gone so far as to apimly for a patent
on the invention. 'rlie great merit of imis
plan lice iii the fact ( list the apparatus may
be ainmost inrtaimtly attacimtd , and whemi not in
( use , can be towCd in a care , which is
scarcely larger thou tim tool case , and
tirappod to time frame of the wheel. If lie
starts out on a quiet morning for a long
run and collides with a gale that t'hareatens
to wind him in a five-mile struggle , lie simply
atoims and attaches his apparatus. A couple
of turns with a thiunib scraw nccornphlslmcct
tlmis and away lie goes as easily as tlmoiighi
time Winl was iii his back. The harder ( hO
wind blows , ( lie niore easily uls pedals turn
and he scorches along iii comnplacent mdc-
pendence of ( lie freaks of' thin prune zephyre.
INSIDE HIS LITTLE G4MEI ,
The mechanism by which this desirable re-
suit is accomplished comisits of a number
of sections of light steel rod and a very elm-
pie arrangement of silk and banaboo , which
is attached to time front of the wheel. The
main rod extends from just behind the sad-
die to a point somewhat beyond time forward
wheel. It. is attache.l to ( lie seat and to the
frame just below the handle bars by a couple
of thumbscrews. Whicn It is In position a
couple of el'orter rods arc adjusted as
braces , connectiiig wiLh ( lie forward axle and
( lie main rod about ten inches ahead of thin
Imandlo bars. The bamboo amaci. silk arrange.
mont Is attached to the end of ( lila main
rod and operates just far enough ahmtad of
( ho wheel to clear It.
This is ( he Ingenious part of the invention -
tion and for mill practical purposes it is a
small but ( bite powerful windmhih. It is
so light. that time merest breath of air is
sufficient to revolve it with great raphuity
and in a whimil of , say ten miles an iioir , it
has a surprising motive power. It .is nearly
two feet In ( hiameter , but so narrow that it
( ICeS not Interfere Ithi the management of
thio wheel. The motive power thus obtained
im comunmunicated through the main roil tea
a eniahl sprocket wheel , which is located
tinder time saddle amid just back of thie seat
post. From this wheel a eniall steel cable
with small bulbs or knots to fit the sprocket
conveys time power to another similar shic2l
on tlmo axle of the rear wheel on ( lie ido
opposite the orIinary sprocket wheel. Simply -
ply twisting the cable half way around
makes the change in direction necessary on
accomint of time fact that the two extra
sprocket wheels are at right angles with
each other.
The effect of time Invention when attached
to an ordinary bicycle is that every breath
of wind that blows from iio direction in
which time whmeelman is riding is appropriated
and ( liroetly applied to ( lie populsion of tIme
wheel. If tue vini1 is blowing tram beimimid
anl the rider wants to ride with the speed
of an express train he simply reverses ( lie
silk and bamboo attachment and the same
force is utilized from the other direction ,
All the attachments are in sections , so ( hint
tIme whole parapheriaalia can be folded into
a very small compass when not in use and
the east of .aachlng it to any bicycle will
not excecil 5.
The Inventor was ridiculed to some extent
when lie first exploited his idea , but since lie
perfected the details and applied themim to a
thirty-five pound wheel of the vintage of
three years ago several mechanical experts
have been allowed to vitness Its operation
aad were compelled to concede ( lint while
thmo Invention was not a particularly ornamental -
mental addition to ( lie wheel it certainly
uliul what was claimed for it.
