Hose to Wear 



Last month I offered Recrea- 

 tion readers a $l.OO Golf Hose 

 for 75 cents and several took 

 advantage of my offer. They, 

 I believe, will remember me. 

 Mr. Shields tells me he has 

 40,000 subscribers. Then there 

 are some of these whodid not buy 

 a pair. To these let me say, look 

 up my ad. in June Recreation, 

 and if you wear bicycle hose, 

 buy a pair of No. II. 



I have another offer 

 to make to readers of 

 Recreation. Send me 

 $l.OO, and I will send you 8 pairs of socks, 

 easily worth 20 cents a pair, black, tan, 

 blue, or mixed colors, summer weight. If you 

 don't want to risk $1.00, send me 50 cents 

 for 4 pairs or 25 cents for 2 pairs. I have 

 ladies' hose too, 25 cents a pair, good enough 

 for anyone. In fact, I sell everything in 

 hosiery. ^ If I fool you once, I can't do it 

 twice. Give me an order, and, if what I send 

 you is not worth your money, send back the 

 goods and you will get your money back. 



GLAMOUR. 

 e. c. 



Was it the fountain's rippling flow — 

 The soft waves murmuring free — 



Or Daphne's voice — so sweet and low- 

 Sang melody to me? 



Was it the moon's clear, silvery ray 

 That moved my heart to sighs — 



That witched the happy hours away — 

 Or — Daphne's tender eyes? 



A JUVENILE PARADISE. 



" I wisht'at I lived over at Junny Jinkses 

 house." 



"Why— Dicky?" 



" Cos — he has more better times 'n I do; 

 his sister's hump-backed, 'n' his paw's got 

 a glass eye, 'n' his maw's alius in bed 'th 

 th' roomatiz." 



Mary, Mary, 



Quite contrary, 

 How does your cycle go? 



It's not to my mind, 



For the trouble I find, 

 Is to keep both the wheels in a row. 



— Exchange. 



THE WAY TO ARRIVE. 



The speed by wheelmen reached and kept 

 Was not attained by sudden flight; 



But they, while kind policemen slept, 

 Went scorching onward — out of sight.

SUMMER JOY. 



" What is your idea of perfect bliss, Miss 

 Leggins? " 



" Well — a tandem and a long cycle path, 

 with an ice-cream saloon at each end." 



" Chicago is a pretty wild old town, isn't 

 it?" 



" Yep — pretty near as wild as Coney 

 Island." 



" Papa won't let me marry Harvey, he 

 has bad habits." 



" Why — did he catch him coming out of 

 a saloon? " 



" No; he saw him scorching."
