But the bicycle girl, who makes whatr ever- she wants possible, has now laid siege to man's matc-Ubox. If she contemplated riding, at night she matches to her lamp, and necessarily 'she must cany them in a matchbox.

Many of these matchboxes are made with a conceaJed recess for aphotogmph. It is only when a certain spring is touched that thepfc- ture can be seen, so skillfully it is hidden away.
