Viewing the enor- mous saving of time which its general use accomplishes, it may not be tos extrava- gant to say that next to the telephone the bicycle is the most valuable product of modern ingenuity to the commercial and business world, where time is everything avenner & avis, and where a minute saved may sometimes avenner & AVIS, | prove a market gained.

This speculation bility. was interesting enough to demand investt- Its tone and touch have become gation, so a Star reporter dropped into Galt famous. & Brothers’ yesterday and chatted with yey cimprovemedt’ of) ment Mr. Norman Galt on the subject. “So far as I have learned,” said Mr. Galt, “the bicycle fad has not materially affected the trade in watches. It has not been our experience certainly. Indeed, the fact is that the demand for watches has never been better than at present. There has been a striking increase in the number ct women puchasers of watches, and yet more women ride bicycles now than ever before. There is another point to consider in the question of bicycles and watches. The use of the former increases the necessity for repairs of the latter. A tumble of a rider means sometimes a displacement of the delicate mechanism of his watch, and it comes to the jeweler for repairs. No, I do not think the almost universal use of the Dicycle has affected the watch trade as much as supposed. I know of no other business, indeed, that is so little subject to change as ours.” Mr. Galt said that perhaps the sale of bi- cycles on the installment plan might have some effect on the similar system of dis- Posing of watches, but even this he be- lieved was not great enough to injure that branch of business materially. The Light Livery Trade Ruined. There is one important line of business that bicycles have seriously injured, and that is the livery trade. Mr. G. T. Wood, who was in it for many years and who re- tired a year ago, was interrogated by the reporter on the subject: =| ‘The popular craze for bicycles has ab- solutely ruined the light hiring branch of the livery business,” sald Mr. Wood, prompuy. ‘The demand for light vehi- cles, such as buggies and phaetons, for instance, is not worth talking about now. i had about thirty light vehicles, and dur- ing the last two years of my experience I didn’t get more than a call a week for them. Previous to the bicycle’s general introduction I didn’t have enough to meet the demand. Young people who were customers for that class of vehicle are now riding their wheels. There is no doubt that the machines have destroyed the light livery trade beyond hope of re- demption.” The carriage manufacturers have found that the demand for light-running buggies has almost disappeared, and in order to be right up with the procession many faetory j cwners have adapted their machinery to meeting to order and continued without ces-| bicycle construction.
