LIFFITON, Seotetary. 4? \ COLUMBIA. TELL MB THIS : When the New York World offered a Bioyolo to the 30 successful compete tors in a guessing competition, WHY did they all ohooßO OOLUMBIAS ? WHY did tho War Department of the United Statoß choose to pay 100 dollars eaoh for COLUMBIAS, when they conld get any other high-class American Bioycle for 80 dollars and loss ? I oan give yon the names. WHY did tho importers of COLUMBIA Bicycles into Canada have to pay 1\ per oent. moro duty than those importing any other P I OAN TELL YOU, BECAUSE, as ie the case of the New York World, the COLUMBIA is the most popular bike in the world. BBOAUSB, as in the case of the U.S. War Department, the COLUMBIA is recognised by the scientific leaders in the mechanical oyoUng world to be the acme of perfection, and »s near the milennium iv bicyole construction as possible. BECAUSE, as in the case of the Canadian importer, the importers recognised the superior monetary value of the COLUMBIA, ' and knowing their aaleablo qualities paid accordingly. If these facts are sufficient to the Yankee mind as proof of thn superiority of the Columbia Bioycle, they will just fit iv with tbe idea of tho cosmopolitan Britisher. Hail ! Hail ! Columbia. D.
