 that it fits like a glove 

 (and a saddle should

 ness, stiffness and chaf- 

 ing, antl has made cycl- 

 ing to a certain extent 

 injurious, because few 

 .could enjoy a long ride 

 ■without fear of injury. 

 . All this is now changed. Here is repre- 

 sented the perfect saddle — tlie Christy 



Anatomical Saddle, 



showing the pelvis as it 



rests on the pads. The 



Christy Anatomical 



Saddle is the only 



r.iddle that is built 



right. Made of metal, 



of light weight, cannot 



warp cr change its 



shape, has pads that 



rest the entire body, 



does not press the sen- 

 sitive parts, prevents 



stiffness, and makes 



cycling a pleasure.
