THE TWO BEST BICYCLESSWIFTS and STARS.
The bicycle still stands supreme as tho most economical, convenient and handy means of quick locomotion yet invented. Even in the days of Talbot motor-cars, Triumph motor-cycles and the Electric Trams, tho bicycle continues to grow in popularity day by day. The Tram Board has sot out to capture the bicycle riders' traffic, but even with free trams, the bicycle cannot be wiped out. Save tram fares by riding a Swift or Star cycle. Prices from £10 10s. Any terms. The tramriding boom has passed. I. Owing to the daily cost of tram rides. 2. Time wasted -waiting for trams. 3. Tho doubtful luxury of tram-riding causing many a strong man to feel old and feeble for want of exercise.
We have sold a great number* of bicycles to tram-riders owing to the reasons set out above. We are now setting out to give any terms of payment, so that tram-riders can, by investing in a bicycle, save the daily expense. We have a good stock of second-hand bicycles from £3 each. All invited to inspect our stock of new and secondhand bicycles. Adams, Limited, 138----140 High street and 198 Colombo street, Christchurch. 6
