Dear Siks:?Yours of tho j si
inst. to hand; also tho Acme Boll
for my daughter, and to say that
she delighted is with it would be
putting it too mild. Iliad (howheel
sent out to-Seminary, and at
Ihoclosoof tho school, it created
more excitement among tho girls,
than tho proverbial "Mary's Little
Lamb." Again thanking you mi
nice wheel, I am,

DEAR Sirs:?Tho Aemo ijght
Roadster eamo to hand (). K. on
Ilia 101 h Jnst., and I must frankly
say it meets my fullest expecta
tion;:, and I am very much pleased
with It. I consider it a strictly
high grade up to dale wheel in
every detail of design, material,
construction and finish and is fully
equal, if not superior to many of
tho $100.00 wliollssoid on tho mar?
kothere. 1 beliovo tho Acme framo
is the strongest and most rigid ami
tho most graceful and lightest
framo built. It Is a beauty among
beauties, and cannot fail to sithfy.
