SHOULD CICLES DE TAXED! This is rapidly becoming one of the questions of the day, but up to the present the discussion of the subject has been chiefly confined to the journals more particularly identified with the sport and pasfime of oycling. Without any prejudice whatever, although doing a little cycling myself, I must confess that I have not yet rees singlo solid argument advanced by any of the anti-oyela people in favour of a tax being imposed.

Was there anything weer so delightful se this? Although somewhat plump and sount of broath in these days I have managed to get through a fair amount of oycling during the last twelve or fourteen years, some of it on the tall machine known as the ordinary," mora on the lowly exfety. But in all these days. I have neret como across a single foot of highway the worse for cycling war.

In some dtatriote, too, the, rond-mendors are not altogether forgotten, för little dinners and gifte are annually made by means of subscriptions amongst oveliste.. One of the main points of the controversy, so far as I have been aldo to follow It appears to hinge on the question as to whe ther cycling is or is not a luxury To my mind It apposts as if the query could be answered by Jea or nay with ognol fairness.
