Briefly, the If new device consists of the appli- i cation to the rear 'wheel of the J Indian Cradle Spring device as used on the front fork for the past three years. Extending back horizontally from the frame joint cluster un der the saddle, flanking the rear mud guard, are two 7-lcaf Chrone Vanadium steel springs. The "C" shaped curls at the rear end of these springs are connected by stays to bell-cranks on wh!c!i tlie rear axle Is hung. The forward end of the rear fork has a hlngo joint which enables the rear wheel to yield to Imperfections of road surface. All shocks are complete ly absorbed by the leaf springs. The rear wheel can go through almost any vertical motion with W. H. BOHNENKAMP CO. i AGENTS the only attendance sraduate Optician m Union Co. We grind our own lenses.
