A CLIMB DOWN. IT is not often Ibat such an experience U plcasmt, hut t;>-day we have to au nounce—and we do it with nlea'sure—-that wc have “ climbed down.” Oh! no, we iiavenot gone back on anything we have said about onr goods I tV© don’t mean that at all. Simply this Wc have boon conducting our business at a disadvantage on the top flat of a vorv hio’h building, and we have now removed to No. 4?, Will is street (nest Duthio’s). ft is a very flattering testimony to the merit of our goods that in spite of the isolated situation of our offices wo havo_ done the argest bicycle business -in Wellington for this season. It is our first season in this line, but wo have “ cut our teeth ” by this time and wo are going to push the business all it is worth in our new premises m Willis street. When all the arrangements are complete wo will have the finest bicycle depot in the Colony. We OPEN TO-NIGHT (Saturday) with a Grand Ei/cctktc Light Display ! Over 100 Wheels on View 1 A Brass Band will play selections during the overling from the balcony of our premises. Don’t fail to see and hear it all! A strong feature of the display will be our large shipment of Victor (gent.’s) and Victoria (lady’s) bicycles. Wo have known for sometime, and tbe other cycle dealers have known it too, that there was another wheel in America that pressed the Columbia hard for first place. One of the local dealers, himself agent for several American bicycles, gave us the names of what he considered the five best American wheels—among them were the Columbia and the Victor. We merely say this to show that even our opponents admit our machines to bo leaders. Columbia reputation is established here, we need not , now say anything in its defence. _WiIl y° u » the public of Wellington, give the Victor the same critical examination you have given the Columbia and you will be struck with its “nany strong features. This we would make ■ery emphatic, that the Victor is built so f M nm “cfom +n stern” that it faithfully from “stem to *torn’_ that it acknowledges no superior in wearing qualities. Call at our now promises for some printed matter. We think wo have the moat complete stock of sundries in the city.

BAMBOO BICYCLES. BAMBOO BICYCLES. WE have just opened up a shipment of the above, which are entirely new to the Cyclists of Wellington. A somewhat popular fallacy exists that “ Bamboo,” ns a primary factor in the construction of machines requiring at times extreme strain, is an innovation hardly equal to the tost. There is no occasion to theorise on the question, as scientific testa have indubitably demonstrated the fact that Bamboo, weight for weight, is many times stronger than steel. In the East it is used for bridges, scaffolding poles, pillars for roofs of houses, masts for ships, and for similar purposes where strength and reliability are absolutely essential. Those Cycles are not built entirely of Bamboo, but a combination of Bamboo, Steel and Aluminium, the resultant machine being, for strength, lightness and life, far superior to the best machines of the most celebrated makers, English or American. The shipment wo have just landed comprises Roadsters, Road • Racers and .Ladies’ Cycles ; they are thoroughly up-to-date, and are strictly Moderate in Price. We Invite Inspection. .
